You can upload your file using a link by clicking on 'Add file from Google Drive, Dropbox or Youtube' in the Media Library.

Youtube Upload 

The files from a Youtube link can be imported only in 360p resolution. If you want the video to be uploaded in higher resolution, you need to download it from Youtube first and then upload it in LiveReacting media library. 

Make sure that your video on Youtube is Public or Unlisted. If the video is Private, we won't be able to retrive it. 

Access Settings of your video and on the right side bar change its Privacy and click Save.

Copy a link to a video from the browser.

1. If you see 'Only you have access' line under the file, you need to make it visible for us too, so we can retrive the file. First you need to click on Share button.

2. Click on Link for viewing > Create link > Save

3. Now anyone with this link can view the file. Copy the link, and paste it in our Media Library.
