A quick starter for using Dtube!
So are you having trouble getting your Dtube account working? Well you're not alone. I will do my best to help you get up and active on Dtube. Here's the Steps you need to complete:
You must have a Steemit Account. To setup Steemit account you must have a cellphone (landlines do NOT work). Follow the instructions and submit the code they send you through the phone. Wait a few days (could take up to a week for Steemit account to be approved).
Once you have a Steemit Account then you are ready to start using Dtube. You need to first click on your wallet:
- Once inside your Wallet: Click on the Permissions Tab:
Then Click on Show Private Key tab next to Posting:
Now you want to Copy that Key provided and bring it over to Dtube:
Enter your Steemit Account Name and then PASTE the Posting (private) Key!
That should do it! You should be able to post videos now on Dtube. Understand that Dtube is relatively new and is nowhere near as reliable or efficient as Youtube. Shorter videos tend to upload better.
What you should do for posting on Dtube is this:
- Drag video that you have ready for posting into the Dtube Box
▶️ DTube
▶️ IPFS
DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL VIDEO IS COMPLETELY LOADED!! (even the tags I would leave).
Once the Video is uploaded you see a green circle filled on the video tab:
Then you can proceed to upload a thumbnail (or snapshot as they call it).
Once the thumbnail is uploaded and you get a green circle in SNAP tab - Submit your details. I would keep it short and update them all after it's successfully loaded. You will see this once you've uploaded your video and info:
Now you can edit your post on Steemit! I would only insert one Tag while uploading and add a few more once you're in your Steemit editor.
Hopefully that helps everyone out. Much love!
