@Greg Bernhardt I forgot what video formats PF accepts. Wanting to post a .mp4 video and looking for a converter to convert to an accepted PF format
Thanks @Borek but I don't have a YT account.Borek said:I can be wrong, but I don't think PF accepts videos, it accepts media links to sites like youtube (so if you upload your video to YT you will be able to post it here using embedded media player).
For format conversion and repacking I am using ffmpeg (command line and often tricky) and avidemux. Both free, neither perfect.
It's fast and easy to open one, at least it used to be.dlgoff said:Thanks @Borek but I don't have a YT account.

Well, I did try to sign up. But I couldn't get it to work.Greg Bernhardt said:Just Youtube, sign up, very easy, let me know if you need help :)
PM me your gmail address and I can setup a Google Meet so I can help.dlgoff said:Well, I did try to sign up. But I couldn't get it to work.
I'll look into the landline phone for a verification code. But it will have to wait until tomorrow. Thank Youanorlunda said:

I haven't been able to get a gmail address. That's the problem. They want a phone to send a text message and I don't have a smart phone.
Did you not understand? I don't have a phone to receive any text messages. OKay?StevieTNZ said:You don't need a smart phone. A phone that can receive texts will suffice.
Right, well say that. Not use 'smart phone'.dlgoff said:Did you not understand? I don't have a phone to receive any text messages. OKay?
Okay, you are right. I was thinking of a conversation with @Greg Bernhardt where I had said:StevieTNZ said:Right, well say that. Not use 'smart phone'.
Sorry.One problem is that it asked where to send a text message. I don't have a phone to get a text message on.
That didn't work either. I give up.anorlunda said:It used to be that the whole 2-factor login security was optional. That may still be true, that you can decline 2-factor (2-step) security and use only username and password instead. But you may need to look in the fine print to find it, they prefer that everyone use 2-factor.

That is just an image. There's no link.OCR said:

I only have an analog phone on a land line. It doesn't even have any kind of display.symbolipoint said:A 'dumb' phone could work for verification if you have one, as long as it can accept text messages and as long as your plan includes text messaging.
Not was not what I meant. Has any forum member ever tried using an online free virtual phone number to verify a Google account for account creation?dlgoff said:I only have an analog phone on a land line. It doesn't even have any kind of display.

Let me clarify.dlgoff said:from post #28
I thought "A 'dumb' phone could work for verification" meant an analog phone.
bold by me
