There are a number of ways that you can upload your videos.
Upload Site:
The quickest way to upload is to use our step-by-step upload site: www.KentTVupload.com
This system is perfect for films under 100MB -such as mobile phone clips or shorter videos. We can accept a variety of different formats.

Email:
You can also email your video to us by sending it to info@KentTV.com along with your name and the video's title. Emails are great for sending very short videos or clips. Please make sure you that any videos you send us via email are cleared for broadcast.
Post:
If you have a long video, or something that has been made on DVD, the best way to get it onto Kent TV is to send us a copy in the post to the address below, along with the information requested on this form. If you post us a DVD, then don't forget to tell us who you are and what your email address is in case we need to contact you.
Please note that due to the high volume of DVDs we receive, we cannot always return videos sent to us and it is therefore best to make a copy. If you only have one copy and need it back, please email our production team info@KentTV.com before sending it in.
Troubleshooting
If you are having problems with sending us a video, please refer to these Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
Q: I don't know the file size of my video. Which method should I use to send it to you?
A: You can determine the file size by checking the properties of the video file. For Microsoft users, right click the file and select "properties". If you are still not sure, then check the length of your video. If it is under 10 minutes, then it will probably be best to use our upload site www.KentTVupload.com. If your video is longer, then please follow the instructions under the post section.
Q: My file won't upload through the upload site. Why is this?
A: There are a number of reasons that could cause this.

Q: I have emailed you a video, why haven't I received a response?
A: Someone from the Kent TV team will always respond to your email, normally within 48 hours (this may take longer over weekends or public holidays). If you have not received an email after this time, then it is possible your email has not sent. Please check for any error messages in your inbox and re-send if you have a failed notice. If you have no error messages and have not received a response from Kent TV, then please email our technical team: info@KentTV.com.
Q: I have uploaded a video, why haven't I received a response?
A: An automatic response is always issued when a video is successfully uploaded. If you haven't received this (please also check your junk mail folders), then the upload has not worked. Please try again, as the upload site will show an error message describing any reasons if the upload won't work. If you still encounter difficulties, then please email our technical team: info@KentTV.com.
Q: I have sent a video via my mobile phone, why haven't I received a response?
A: Someone from the Kent TV team will respond to your message, normally within 48 hours (this may take longer over weekends or public holidays). If you have not received a confirmation message after this time, then it is possible your video has not sent. Please check for any error messages in your message inbox and make sure that your phone and service provider allow you to send videos. If you have no error messages and have not received a response from Kent TV, then please email our technical team: info@KentTV.com.
Q: I have posted you a video, why haven't I received a response?
A: Videos take longer to reach us in the post, so please allow up to 14 days after posting, especially if you have sent the package by second class or over a bank holiday or the Christmas period. Please also ensure you have paid sufficient postage for it to reach us. A member of the Kent TV team will email you once we have received your video. If you have not heard from us after 14 days, then please email our production team: info@KentTV.com.
Q: How long will it take before my video appears on Kent TV?
A: There are a number of processes that videos go through before they are live on the channel. Kent TV are subject to the OFCOM regulations, and therefore all videos are checked to ensure they can be viewed by all age groups and will not be found offensive to others. If your video contains swearing then it may be censored or even rejected. We aim to have videos on the site within three working days, but a member of the Kent TV team will contact you once the video is viewable on the channel.
Q: Why has my video been rejected?
A: Kent TV is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and can be viewed by anyone, at any time. This means that videos may be accessed by younger children. Kent TV is therefore subject to the OFCOM regulations and has a responsibility to its viewers to ensure that all videos can be viewed safely by all age groups and will not be found offensive to others. If your video contains swearing, extreme violence or features content deemed unsuitable for pre-watershed broadcast, then your video may be censored or rejected. If you have had a video rejected and wish to question this decision, then please email our production team: info@KentTV.com Please let us know the title of your video, and when it was sent to us.
If you are still encountering difficulties, have any questions regarding accessibility or would like to give Kent TV feedback, then you can email us: info@KentTV.com.
