How can I convert it to a format I can upload? I've tried uploading it but it shows as unsupported file type ......

I really want to contribute this vid to the group...anyone offer help to me? I've tried right clicking "save as ".....it only stays as "File".

Any help appreciated.

Mods..sorry if I shoild post this query elsewhere..I've looked and can't see anywhere I can raise the question other than here...apologies in advance if I've done the wrong thing.

TIA mike

Open "My Computer"
Click "Tools" On tool bar then click "Folder Options"
In Folder Options window click "View"
You will see an option called " Hide extensions for known file type" UN-check it. (So you can always know what type of the file is)
Then the final step, click "OK".
DONE

Now, look at your "File", it will have file extensoion. Hope it will help~

If that still doesn't work for you, you can try using AVIcodec to check the video file type.
