Uploading Videos

Post by Krais »

Ok so back when i played silkroad i made a video of me doing a short video of me grinding on my glaiver before he got banned, and everytime it ry to upload it to youtube it tells me the file is too big when its a 3 minute video and people have like 10-20 minute video's up on there...

I was wondering if it had something to do with the resolution i was using at the time or something? cause i want to make a WoW video, and i dont wanna take time to make a video then have it all messed up and not able to upload it.

All help appreciated.

Yeah... way too big. If that's just 3 minutes it must be uncompressed full size FRAPS file. You need to compress it, which you should be able to do with any free AVI to MPEG converter. There are lots on Google. You could also look for a DivX or XviD compression utility, which will keep the .avi file type but reduce the size. Youtube will take any of those formats. Just fiddle with the compression options until you get a file that's under 100 megs with acceptable quality.
