  You’ll need to actually upload the media while writing or editing the post or page in question, then insert the slideshow from there.

  Ok, thanks for that. Hopefully, that should finish this discussion, thanks to the staff for all their help.
  Cheers!

  One problem I have is I don’t have a progress bar showing me that it is uploading as explained in the instructions under Videopress. I have also tried to upload another slideshow titled Vichotrodshow. mpeg4 and also as an ogv but to no evail. I am attempting to upload this into Media but nothing is coming up.

  That’s your operating system, but which browser are you using to browse the web?

  Is it Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, etc?

  And, which version is it, 6, 7, 8, 9, etc?

  I’d like to rule-out a browser-specific issue. Would you please try a different browser, like Firefox or Chrome?

  Ok, I tried it on Firefox but with the same result.

  Hm, that’s rather odd. Does the video indeed upload correctly after some time, and it’s just the progress bar you’re missing?

  I have allowed it to upload for some time wondering if that is the problem but it doesn’t upload, it just seems to get stuck without moving on. Where do we go from here?

  Hm, that’s no good. I don’t see any problems on this end.

  When uploading files, there is a link to a “Browser Uploader”

  This is the old upload and very basic, so it should work. If that doesn’t there could be an issue from your network, and it would be great if you had a way to try from another connection, like work, a friend’s house, etc.
