Select the file dated with the upload (just like we would grab from iExplorer). Scroll down and click Save and save the dated file to your desktop.

Press Choose the Folder on the app and select the date folder that you recovered from iTunes
Windows Powershell will open and run all the necessary jobs.
When Powershell has finished, press Upload to Hudl (sign in if need be).
Upload the files from the folder(s) you collected from iTunes. Be sure to only select and upload the files with the media icon next to them. Ex: The bottom five files in the photo below.
Done! Repeat steps 10-14 if you recovered additional folders from iTunes.

Once you have pulled all videos you need and can watch each full video on Hudl.com uninstall and reinstall the Hudl app on your iOS device. DO NOT uninstall the Hudl app until all videos are pulled and uploaded to your Hudl account. Deleting the app will erase all videos that have not been uploaded and cause them to be unretrievable.
