how do you upload a video on you tube ?

Question

i have try-ed to and i think i got it but it says processing but it has been doing that for like a hour

Answer 1

Hi there,



It can take a long time sometimes, it depends how big the file is. Youtube accepts up to a 100MB file. The obvious reaction to this is oh i can download 100MB in a few minutes!!! True, but home broadband is aimed at people who download not people who upload (put files onto a server rather than take them off) so the upload speed is very slow compared to your super fast downloading.



Check the size, I dont know how fast your broadband is, but if the file is big and your "upload" speed on your broadband is not so great, like most peoples, it can take quite some time.

General Upload Questions: How to upload

Once you've finished editing your video, made sure it's less than 10 minutes, smaller than 100MB and is in an acceptable format, you're ready to upload it.



Click the "Upload" button in the upper right-hand corner of any YouTube page.

Enter as much information about your video as possible, including Title, Description, Tags and Category. The more information you include, the easier it is for users to find your video!

Determine if you want your video set to Public or Private.

Click the "Upload a Video..." button.

In the next window, click the "Browse" button to browse for the video file. Select the file you want to upload.

Click the "Upload Video" button.

It can take from a couple of minutes to an hour for your video to upload to YouTube.

If you receive an error message when uploading, you should ensure that you're attempting to upload a file type that's recognised by YouTube. YouTube accepts video files from most digital cameras, camcorders and mobile phones in the .AVI, .MOV, .WMV and .MPG file formats.

Answer 3

it depends on your connection speed and also the file size you're uploading... the smaller the file the faster you can upload and complete processing...



It is recommended that you upload wmv file format... good quality and smaller size.. so faster upload... and also faster processing.



Using windows movie maker -- you have to save it into the proper file format, that is wmv file (use the "save movie file" on the menu at the top left) before upload..





--for best editing....



use windows movie maker (included in your windows machine)... it can help you make beautiful slideshow or video clip(e.g. mixing your songs with pictures/video/etc).... then save it as video file such as wmv file format... finally upload.



or .. Just get those clips you want , save & convert them, and then mix/match with pix/sound/etc using windows movie maker to create new masterpieces....



this will help you.... Use 'zillatube'. This is the easiest (and also the fastest) way.



Zillatube produces mpg/mp3 formats from youtube that are compatible with windows movie maker(or media player), and more.



It is very easy to download and convert videos. Then edit those converted mp3/mpg videos with windows movie maker... save your file as wmv and then upload.



It works very well....just google search for "zillatube"

Also, sometimes processing can take a really long time, but if you're stuck waiting longer than a few hours, delete it, and re-upload.



The second time should work. It also depends on your connection speed and how valuable your computer is.

Answer 7

You might just have a slow connection. Cancel it and try again. Eventually it'll process. If not, try YouTube's FAQ.

Answer 8

Looking at your punctuation, you're pretty young. I'm guessing that it's had 5 minutes, and it will need another half an hour depending on the quality. find something else to do.

Answer 9

It really depends on the video. I upload from onetruemedia.com so it's fast for me.
