PozToxVersPig Posted September 6 Report Share Posted September 6 I promise I did try to find a relevant and current thread on this topic so apologize if I missed it. I've attempted several times to upload a video. I at first received the size constraint and reduced the file size far below the actual limit and still received the error message. I tried a very small video file and still was unable to upload. I've tried this both while posting a Topic, as well as creating an album. I can't tell if this is no longer a feature or if there is something I'm doing wrong. Help? 🙂 Will pay you back with a good video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators viking8x6 Posted September 8 Moderators Report Share Posted September 8 BZ has never supported uploading video. I suspect the forum software that the site is based on doesn't handle video file types at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PozToxVersPig Posted September 8 Author Report Share Posted September 8 I must have misread. There were a variety of articles about video upload, and it does seem to support the workflow but then always says your video is too large. My misunderstanding! 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cub84 Posted September 14 Report Share Posted September 14 IIRC, long ago (I’m thinking like 10+ years ago) it was possible to upload video to your gallery but I believe it was disabled for three reasons: (i) hosting video files massively increases the hosting and bandwidth requirements (and thus site running costs), (ii) video comes with a lot more moderation and copyright headaches as well as increasing the likelihood of DCMA takedown notices, (iii) raw top launched a separate tube site for video posting (raunchyfuckers) but that’s since gone into abeyance.

You could submit it to a site (with whatever edits you need), then post the link here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
