How to upload
Since YouTube accepts only video files from most digital cameras, camcorders, and cell phones in the WMV, AVI, MOV, and MPEG file formats. But we all know that our PowerPoint presentations are not video formats and Microsoft also doesn’t support this conversion. So we need a third party software to complete this process, and we also don’t want to lose any vice-over, movies, animations and transitions in the PowerPoint during the converting. The converted video PowerPoint presentation should play as the original. A product called Wondershare PPT2Video Converter will make this work like a piece of cake! Wondershare PPT2Video Converter is an all-in-one PowerPoint to video converter. It can convert PowerPoint presentations to almost all popular video formats such as MPEG, AVI, MP4, WMV, ASF, FLV, MOV, 3GP, 3GP2. Ideal for trade show, digital signature, in-store displays and ready for video podcast. You can download the product here to have a free try:

If you are using the trial version and the convert failed, you’d better contact the Customer Service of the company to give you a full version or order it! Because the trial version has water mark and sometimes doesn’t work very well!

When you decided to use this tool to convert your PowerPoint presentation to video, we recommend the following settings:
• MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format
• 320×240 resolution
• MP3 audio
• 30 frames per second
Resizing your video to these specifications before uploading will help your videos look better on YouTube. Once you’ve finished editing your video, made sure it’s less than 10 minutes, smaller than 100MB, and in an acceptable format, you’re ready to upload it.
1. Click “Upload Videos" in the upper-right-hand corner of any YouTube page.
2. Enter as much information about your video as possible, including Title, Description, Tags, and Category. The more information you include, the easier it is for users to find your video!

4. Click the “Continue Uploading" button.
5. In the next window, click the “Browse" button to browse for the video file. Select the file you want to upload.
