WHY the hell did they change the name!
The advertisers requested it. They wanted a more obscure name that no one can relate to so they could reach out to the thousands who love and thrive off podcasting. I think YouTube should change their name to Eivom or Ebutuoy.
Sorry, got off topic.. How to upload a video to Mevio.com.
I think i figured it out tonight.
I would suggest creating a dummy site to get the feel of it. Channels and user names are different. DON'T USE THE NAME OF YOUR SHOW WHEN YOU SIGN UP!! In fact avoid using anything that has anything to do with anything when signing up for the first time. It takes seconds to sign up to YouTube, it takes hours to sign up to Mevio.com . You might want to write down your user name and channel. I would suggest the name 98s7dfyiaousdf78y. Use something like that till you figure out the system.
Avoid the temptation to use a user name you are are familiar with. You will regret it!
Set up dummy page till you get confused then come back!
Good luck. You will need it. I swear i have spent 20 hours trying to figure this out.
Display name.. Not sure the "display name" ever gets displayed. Maybe on an email or a mevio comment but it seems absolutely useless. When you are ready to create a site make you user name and your mevio podcast show the same.
When you are creating dummy sites USE A FAKE EMAIL ADDRESS. THEY ASK FOR AN EMAIL TWICE. USE ALL FAKE EMAIL ADDRESSES.
This pic goes to the above textSKIP "FIND YOUR FRIENDS"
Remember, you are creating a dummy site! Besides you can do that stuff later.
Next you should get to a page that looks like this.
Yes i just signed up as Adam Curry. After 15 dummy accounts i got creative.Now what?
CLICK EDIT
After you click edit the next page should look like this
Now click on Create a new show.Yes, it might seem you just created a new show but you have to
create a new show again in order to see the next screen.
Its like a video game where you have to add in order to subtract.
At this time you should go take a break, go strangle your cat or paint the house.
It doesn't get any better...
Next screen, you have to pick a category.You can leave the rest blank.
The next page should say "show media"
with a little mevio media logo as your
thumbnail. Just click "save show info"
UGHHHHHHH. Now go drink 12 gallons vodka.
I have to quite. Something isnt right. I think its a web 2.0 thing. I go 12 pages into the sign up process and hit page back and it takes me to mevio.com.
This tutorial might be finished. I have better things to do.
