- What you need

https://www.xcontest.org/cesko/prelety/)
- Link to YouTube video(s) from your flight (both link formats supported, e.g.
youtu.be/video_id or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=video_id)
- Upload raw video files from your camera to YouTube - you can set them as Unlisted (Private means it's visible only for users you choose on YouTube)
- XCvid will extract the following info (add what you can do to improve viewer experience)
- From XContest flight
- Description's first line or sentence is used as the title of your new XCvid flight
- From YouTube videos
- Title is used in XCvid's play screen bottom graph to name each videofile (common prefix is stripped)
- Timestamps (
m:ss or h:mm:ss - e.g. 8:20 nice thermal) in description field are used to create bookmarks in XCvid's play screen bottom graph
- Match timing of videos and tracklog
- Find the precise start time of each video from meta-information on your computer (e.g. Windows Media Player - Play bookmark)
- Fill it next to each video link
- Click Show and check if sync is okay (e.g. moment of start on video corresponds to moment of start on tracklog)
- If it's shifted then count the difference
- Click Back in your browser or Edit icon (top right on your XCvid flight)
- Change timing of tracklog (it's better if your flight contains more video files)
- XCvid flight edit (mentioned above)
- On play screen, click XCvid icon at top right corner (edit made on computer where XCvid flight was originally created will keep the original link to your XCvid flight; edit made on another computer will generate an unique link)
