What can I upload?

You can upload videos from RealPlayer that belong to you.

RealPlayer does not allow you to upload videos that exist on the internet. These files will display a source URL in My Library in either thumbnail or list view. You can still use RealPlayer to share a link to the original content.

Each service has its own rules about file size and format. You will see an error if the file size or format is not supported.

How does RealPlayer handle my sign in information?

RealPlayer follows the rules of the upload service. How your upload sign in is handled depends on which service you use.

YouTube: RealPlayer does not save any sign in information for YouTube. Each time you upload to YouTube, you need to sign in.

Facebook: RealPlayer works with Facebook Connect. You will need to sign in to Facebook the first time you upload a video. You will stay signed in to Facebook until you choose to sign out. To sign out of Facebook on RealPlayer, select a video in My Library with no associated URL . When the "Upload to Facebook" dialog opens, click "Sign Out" in the upper-right corner. Click Cancel to close the dialog.
