Video problem from my DSLR

[Mr R.]

Gents,
I've taken a few video's from my Canon dslr and wanted to get the videos from the camera onto a platform where I can watch them from my phone I also wanted to be able to share them as well.
I uploaded the short video clips to Google drive and then down loaded them to my phone.
Now the issue is when I go to share them via WhatsApp or post them on Instagram I loose the audio, any ideas or is there another way of getting the videos on my phone.

Cheers

S.

Why don’t you upload them to YouTube? Could always set them to private if you don’t want them public.

Can't share them to Instagram mate

Might be worth looking a Dropbox

Could do, just find it odd with Google drive not giving any audio when I try and share it.

Does the canon app allow video transfer? If so it should save the file to your gallery and you should be able to upload from there.

Can you play them on your phone with the audio working?

I don't know mate tbh, I uploaded the videos to my PC and they got deleted from the camera.

Yes mate and when playing from Google drive it's perfect it's only when I go to share I loose the sound. Taking a video on my phone and sharing is no problems.

Must be something in the audio codec that the apps don't like.

What about transfering the vids from your camera/camera sd card to your pc/laptop and then transfer them to your phone? That's how I do mine.

I've got them off of the camera and on to my PC mate. Didn't know a way to get them onto my phone other than Google drive.

What phone have you got?

Something else to try. Install telegram on your laptop and on your phone. It's like WhatsApp but you can transfer full size files etc. Send it yo yourself from your laptop and it'll go through to the phone, upload from there.
Or cable transfer if you can do that?

Sweet.
Either of those should work. Should see "saved messages" in telegram, send it to there.
I've done it a few times when ive wanted to send videos to my phone.
When it comes through in telegram to the phone, save it to downloads and it'll be in your files, makes it a bit easier to find rather than scanning Google photos or quickpic etc.

I just plug my phone (samsung) into the laptop/pc via the usb lead and drag/drop the video from it's folder onto my phone. Works ok with sound and quality. Did the same with my gopro and it worked fine.

Thanks mate, next time I'll try it that way. I've downloaded telegram to both the phone and my PC, I'll see how that goes.
