Video Upload Questions/Advice

[HOLWACHAGOT]

I made a short video. It works fine on my home computer. Went to upload it in the same way I always do. No indication it has any errors when uploaded...but...if you try to play the video through the board here...it just keeps loading and won't do anything. Is there something wrong with the video? Any advice? Should I try to make the video in a different format or resolution? Any help appreciated.

Geoff- it is my understanding that there is a problem with the sites uploader and that Jer is working on it. Gradywhite273 replied in another thread that if you can convert it to a FLV file, it will upload perfectly.

Good Luck!

geoff , something is going wrong with the encoder, if you have an flv encoder, and encode it , it will work fine because it bypasses the encoder. if not, send it to me ill get it encoded.

FLV is a flash video file. I will convert it for you if you send the video to me using the tool in the PM I sent.

I can't even get that tool to work...I am really struggling.
