\\
===== YouTube videos hint: =====
<WRAP round important>
Please note that for privacy reasons YouTube videos can only be added via a link in Moodle. A direct upload in the course interface is not possible!

===== Adding Videos: =====

Videos up to 256 MB can be uploaded directly to Moodle. For larger files, "[[en/video/hosting/start |video hosting]]" is a better way.

You can also link to the web address of externally hosted videos, e.g. via the "[[en/moodle/activities/link/start |Link/URL]]". Do you already know the [[https://av.tib.eu/|TIB AV-Portal]] for scientific films or the portal for open educational materials "[[https://www.twillo.de/oer/web/|twillo]]" (funded by MWK)?
