Question

How do I share it so that the video can be played on FB?

Bousetta Islem

Community Answer

You have to use a third party app like transferring-videos.com. It will upload the video natively to Facebook and, of course, it will be playable.

Question

How can I post two seconds of a two-minute video?

Bousetta Islem

Community Answer

Two seconds is too short for a video. I think the minimum is 3 seconds. And to do that you can use a video distributor like transferring-videos.com. After you complete the subscription process, upload your video, give it a title and description, and then you will be able to trim it. Finally, you can upload this trailer to your Facebook page.

Question

What do I do if Facebook isn't listed in the options on YouTube to share a video when I am using my Android smartphone?

Community Answer

You need to make sure the Facebook app is installed on your phone. It should show it automatically. If it is installed, try reinstalling it.

Question

What if this doesn't work on my mobile device?

Community Answer

Don't use a mobile device. Use a laptop or desktop computer. If you don't have one, borrow or buy one.
