My video keeps failing to upload on the .org

Postby spreet » Wed Sep 02, 2009 9:34 pm

My video is 178.6MB and is a .MP4. It transfers over half of the video then suddenly fails. I do not think there is something internally wrong with the video file. It plays just fine.

The FTP client I am using is called Cyberduck. I also tried FileZilla and it did the same thing to me. Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong? Or if I have to export in another format?

Thank you.

Only up to 100MB are allowed. If you need to upload a bigger file, you need to make a request to upload a big file... IIRC once you made the upload request, you get the confirmation page, and it is from there that you can make a request to upload a file bigger than 100MB.

In any case, unless your amv is very long, it seems weird that it weights so much... you probably can compress it better.

Oh, thank you! I must have not read that properly. My mistake on my end. I'll go and do that right now.

You DO need a legit reason for a big file upload. Usually that would be something like "it's 60fps in HD and 10+ minutes in length" and not "I'm not good at compression."
