FTP Won't finish uploading

Post by londonafrost » Wed Aug 25, 2010 12:52 pm

I am using Filezilla.

Everything is working wonderfully.

It is uploading and all is well, until it reaches 105,119,056 bytes uploaded and then suddenly it stops uploading and restarts. It has done this well over 10 times now.

I have no idea where to start for trouble shooting this problem.

The upload limit is 100MB. If your video is larger than that for a legitimate reason (length, resolution, etc.), you can request permission for a larger upload.

Otherwise, you should be compressing your video more efficiently.

Local uploads are restricted to 100MB (104,857,600 bytes), so it sounds like the system is doing its job.

In most cases, you should be able to bring the filesize down pretty easily by encoding the video with x.264 (using meGUI, Zarx264GUI, or by using the command line if you're so inclined).

Don't forget to compress your audio as well.

Well that most certainly explains that.... Thank you so much for the help. I will have to figure out how to bring the file size down. Thank you so much for the information!
