    3. Click on the Open button.

    • Choose an Existing Video:

    2. Select the video you wish to use from the list of existing videos.

    After you’ve selected or uploaded your video, you’ll need to enter a few additional details about it. These include:

    The length of your video (in seconds)

    Whether or not you want your video to play automatically when someone visits your site.
