Can't upload video media file

[KarinaGarcia4]

I have a discussion video due at the end of the week. I have to upload a 2–3-minute video on the information we got in this week's class. I have the video recorded on my laptop. I have tried to submit the video but when I click submit, it asks me for a file name. I ended up renaming the file and tried again to upload. It still doesn't let me upload it. I have tried to re name the file something else and still doesn't let me. I'm unsure of what to do.

Can you share a screenshot of the error message, and perhaps of the selections you are making?

There are a few different ways to have a video uploaded (as an assignment upload, inside the rich content editor text box, or even using a different platform that is connected to Canvas as an external app), so it would be helpful if we could see it, to know which it is.
