Help my video won't upload.

Are you having a problem uploading videos to Dtube??

For weeks now the video's were taking ages to upload, and on many occasions they were failing. I could not understand it and this caused me to give up on the use of DTube.
I hunted high and low for an answer, but many people were in the same position as me and DTube was very new.

However it was not until recently, when I ripped some old you tube vides to upload to the platform. I noticed the videos uploaded a lot faster than what my videos were uploading.

Because I am a mac user, my videos are created in .mov format which is standard on imovie. So I searched for a way, that I could convert them to mp4 format and I am glad that I did.

You need to download a free converter tool like in this link below.

Once downloaded put your .mov video in and set it for MP4, I convert mine to high definition the actual settings are in the video that is in this post.

Once converted then try to upload the video and you will see that it uploads a lot quicker than on .mov. I have learned very quickly, that really all videos should be in this format. There is no reason why I should give my viewers any problems in watching movies, and making it as easy as possible for them.

So if you are struggling with your videos taking an age to upload try this out. I amm not sure if you are having problems on Windows using moviemaker, but if you are also try this it might very well save you a lot of time.

So as I come to the end of writing this, I am happy to say that it has uploaded so I hope you enjoy the video.
