Hi--i dont know about dvd, but i upload to youtube from my hard drive just by signing into you tube account and hitting the up-load prompt and browse for your video and start up-load.so probably first put dvd on your hard drive. im a computer idiot so if i can do it------------------- good luck.

I believe Youtube has a 10 minute limit.
If you can play the DVD on your computer, you can use a screen capture program, such as Jing, to record the video. I presume that is uploadable.

You likely have a 10-minute limit, yes. On my Mac, first, I use Handbrake to rip the DVD, then Vimeo as the site onto which I upload. I don't recall from there, but look up handbrake to start.

I would suggest clicking this link and reading what it has to say:
https://www.youtube.com/t/copyright_permissions
While I would hope you have permission from the creator of the DVD to distribute the material, I would also hope that if you don't, you'd re-consider publishing copyrighted material. If it's your material, then you should have an original copy on your hard drive.

I was just on the YouTube site today, trying to learn how to upload a video, and it says on the site that 15 minutes is the length-limit. In fact, in one place it said 15 and 1/2 minutes.
I've produced a short (5 minutes or so) vid and can't seem to get it uploaded to YouTube. It's in DVD form, not on my hard drive, and is apparently not in a format that YouTube will take. I tried to upload it from my desktop, but could not open it into the YouTube browse field for uploading because the "open" button was grayed out.
How do I translate it into a proper format for uploading? Do I need to buy some kind of software like Jing or Handbrake? Or can I just put it into my hard drive somehow and upload it from there? Or.......? Help, Mr. Wizard!!!

If you can play the video on your Mac, I suggesthttps://www.techsmith.com/jing/assets/img/layout/jing-logo.png (https://www.techsmith.com/jing/). It's a very easy and cool tool that does screen recording. The basic version is free, the pro version which you may want/need is just $15/year. You could use it to record the video as it appears on your Mac's screen, bypassing all formatting issues.

Thanks, Barry, but I'm still wondering: will that process with Jing (or whatever program) translate my video into one of the formats that YouTube supports? The (possibly not complete) list I got from YouTube Help is:
Here's a list of some well-known formats that YouTube supports:
WebM files - Vp8 video codec and Vorbis Audio codecs
.MPEG4, 3GPP and MOV files - Typically supporting h264, mpeg4 video codecs, and AAC audio codec
.AVI - Many cameras output this format - typically the video codec is MJPEG and audio is PCM
.MPEGPS - Typically supporting MPEG2 video codec and MP2 audio
.WMV
.FLV - Adobe-FLV1 video codec, MP3 audio
Is that what Jing, for instance, does--translate a video into another format of my choice? Or does it just record the video to my hard drive without necessarily putting it into a format YouTube will accept?

Jing just captures whatever shows up on your screen, now matter how it got there (doesn't include your post-its, though :wink:) and records that in a .mp4 video file that you can save to your disk and upload to youtube. I have the Pro version. I forget what that adds, but my version allows a direct upload to youtube without saving the file to my disk.
One thing to be aware of is that is records the audio from your speakers using your microphone (or other audio input). It does not seem to be able to take the audio directly from the video.

We used a digitizer hardware device to convert DVD for display on a TV (NTSC video format) to a computer-compatible file type such as .mov, .dv or .avi to be imported into a video editor. Not familar with this Handbrake app, but it certainly comes well recommended.

Thank you Barry and Glia. We're homing in on a solution. Next question: Can anyone tell me how I can inexpensively translate my DVD into a YouTube-compatible file in a way that translates the audio directly rather than picking up the audio through the microphone, which I'm sure would compromise the audio quality?
(And pardon all the dumb questions; I'm a Techneanderthal trying to learn.)

Sorry I don't have time to go more specific, but I do recommend Handbrake, and I think it's free. Manual is here (https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/IsIsnt)

Hoooray! I've successfully uploaded my first video to YouTube, and it can be viewed right here on Wacco, as I've posted it in the General Community section.
Patrick Brinton, who had helped me enormously with camera work and editing, sent me the original file from which he'd made the DVD, and I was able to upload that to YouTube. (Thanks also to Deborah Thayer for camera work.) I also wish to thank Barry, Glia, Ben et al. for your efforts to educate my little wooden head about this video stuff.

If you have a Mac, you can use a free program called Mpeg Clipstream. (not sure if there is a windows version) It pulls out the audio and video for you and then you have a movie file that Quicktime can convert and export to any other format you want.
