What I was doing wrong... after opening my video, I would go right under the video window where it says share and copying the link from there. It would not work like that for me. I just did it copying the link from the URL box at the top and it worked just like DU said.
Now, if he could just tell me how to make those running shots work for me like they do for him....
Thanks for your patience DU, much appreciated.
Happy News Years ya'll
