Welcome to PokerTube
Pokertube is an independent video community, run by passionate swedish poker players.
Pokertube is a video community where you can watch and upload pokervideos. PokerTube is divided into two major parts “Your Films” which are all the films our members upload and “From PokerTube” which is all the material we put into the site.
To upload a video you have to register/log-in. Once you’re registered you will have access to your own page (My Page) where you can upload your videos, see all your uploaded films and activate/deactivate them. When you upload a video you have to fill in certain fields: Title, Category and Language. You will also have to confirm that you hold all the rights for the video you’re uploading. PokerTube will screen all videos before publishing them.
You also have to register to rate and mail a video to a friend.
What’s a Pokervideo?
A Pokervideo is every piece of moving material that has to do with our favourite subject, Poker! Let your imagination drift away. Make a documentary about your poker friend, film your home games, make a Poker show better than WPT, show us how you react to online bad beats, let us see that great chip trick you learned at the casino yesterday or just make the best videoblog ever. We would like to see it all and we will have great prizes for “Best of the Week” etc.
PokerTube will provide you with interviews of well known and not so well known poker profiles, reports from big and small tournaments, worldclass card & chip tricks, documentaries and all sorts of moving images from wherever there’s a flop.
So, grab your camcorders, get out there and make some moves!
Upload Your Poker Videos
To upload a video you need to register. Think of a good title and description. This will help others to find your video by searching.
- Each video must be no more than 100MB
- Maximum length is 60 min.
Uploads usually takes 1-5 min./MB, depending on connection. To see the file size of your video:
- Windows: right-click on the file and select "Properties"
- Unix: type "ls -lh videoname" in the directory where the video is stored.
File type is the filename extension of your video file. In other words, if your video file is named "pokermovie.wmv", "wmv" is the file type. Pokertube accepts the following video files:
- avi
- wmv
- mov
- 3gp
- divx
- rm
- mp4
- mpg
- mpeg
Go on and upload, we’re curious!
