Publish videos to Facebook

Jul 30, 2012 9:57 PM

Has anybody been able to upload any videos to Facebook via Lightroom's publish?

 

I go to the Lightroom Publishing Manager, and in the middle it says, "Videos will not be uploaded into this album. Facebook organizes them under "My Videos". OK, but it doesn't have an option for selecting that album.

    Yes, I have authorized. I am happy to post a screenshot, but it looks exactly like yours. Now, can you select from the "Facebook Album" drop-down and does your video album appear? It doesn't for me. Thanks.

    from the "facebook Album" just means what album you would want your photos to import in on facebook. but since its a video, the video will go into the video portion of facebook.

    you can also try just simply dragging the video file to the facebook publish tab under the library module. then click on the top right button "publish".

     

    -lettme know how it goes

    Janelle,

     

    Thanks. Please let me know when they get it fixed. For now, I'll assume it's impossible to upload videos from Lightroon directly onto Facebook. Pretty big bug.
