  I want to use my existing videopress upgraded account for my self hosted blog. How to?
  The video on installing the plugin does not match the current sign up experience. i.e. it prevents me using the blog address.
  Confused…

  All you need to do is install the Jetpack plugin. http://jetpack.me/

  Then, you’ll still upload videos through the Media library of your WordPress.com blog. Once the video is uploaded and processed, copy its shortcode from the Media library and paste it into a post on your self-hosted blog.
