YouTube Upload Takes SOOOOOOOOOOOO F*CKING LONG

.mp4 + handbrake, but i assume u have massive filesize and shitty internet.

Do research and gain knowledge before trying youtube, for the quadrillionth godforsaken time.

@Septone: That double-the length-thingy had happened to me before

I'm trying to upload a .mp4 now, with 13:44min length.

I didn't have anything that I tried to upload before, and it started. It went pretty fast to 38%, but didnt jump. Now is is at 43% and it says there are 187 Minutes left!

Does .mov upload better?

mp4 is simply the best you can get

It'll be either the file size or your internet, your upload speed will always be lower than your download speed, fact of life.

Personally I upload videos that are 12+ minutes in length in about 20 minutes. I'm on my dorm's internet. So it's pretty quick. But when I was at home the upload took a bit, I noticed that mp4 normally uploaded faster as well.

But the file size and internet speed are the most important as Vicsyyy said.
