Hi jamspencer, sorry you are having trouble.

There is a known bug where this site says that your video upload has failed but it has actually uploaded correctly - can you remember what the Muvizu site said when you had finished uploading it?

Am I right in saying that you uploaded the video to our site but it when you go to your YT account it says "Unable to Convert Video File"?

If that is the case could you tell me what Screen resolution and Codec you used when you made the video please?

-Jim.

Hi again,

YouTube can handle videos up to 10 minutes (15 in some cases, depending on the user) so if it's less than that you should be fine.

Do you know what size the video is? If you made it in an uncompressed format it could be pretty huge, which may be what is causing the problem.

-Jim.

I think I may have found the problem, I was just saving it then browsing for it and uploading it, I wasn't clicking on Video on the Nav bar in the application. I think I may have fixed it, fingrers crossed. If not I will post again. Thanks for the help Jim.

Aaah, makes sense - sounds like you saved the set but not the video - let me know how you get on.

Take care, and happy to help
