You don't need to install IPFS to use DSound. It is not encouraged due to difficult setup procedure for regular users. DSound works without a local IPFS node anyway, just upload and that's it... :)
Thanks. You are the man... but it is not working. I am getting a message that says, "Couldn't upload the file. Check IPFS settings." It used to work fine. I just can't figure it out.
I was getting that for a couple days. It works for me now though. In beta, try try again is the rule. lol
It happens. If it was working, but then suddenly it's not, it's probably just a temporary issue so try again later. If the problem persists, let me know and I'll help you debug.
I will try again. Thanks @outtheshellvlog.
Me too!!
I was able to install IPFS in Windows 7. And I am able to upload to Dtube, but it tell sme I'm not running IPFS. This is all very new to me and I can't find any blogs or videos that explain it all in simpleton terms.
IPFS on Windows isn't a sane animal, however you don't need to run your own IPFS node to upload to d.Tube and other services that piggyback on it (like SpkOut/BitChute, dlive, steemit, dmania, etc). If you're wanting to contribute to the IPFS network, it's better to stick with textual tutorials for basic setup as to allow for copy and paste for the less technically savvy.
IPFS, admittedly, is far easier to set up on a Linux system.
Speaking of D.tube, I wonder if there is a way to upload a video from my google account, which is where I keep my vids. I just take them from my phone and they store on my googlephotos. But in order to upload to dtube, I have to download the video to my hard drive, then upload from there.
It's a pain. And ridiculous. I'm a whiner. I know. But is there a way around this and I'm just too blind to see it?
There is no way around that due to limitations on uploading to the IPFS network. Google isn't IPFS compatible due to their end so it has to be downloaded, then reuploaded.
OK. Thanks for the explanation anyway.
