Title: Can not Upload zip file
Post by: JimmyD3 on January 11, 2017, 04:28:19 PM

I have a film and an ahf file of a stutter in game, I have saved both to a zip file (152 mb). When I try to upload it, it sends a request to HT, waits about 3 minutes then resets the "post message" screen to a "Start New Topic" screen. The original message and attachment is not sent. :headscratch:

Anjy ideas what I am doing wrong?

That file is too big for a single upload.  I think we have that capped at 50MB.

Ok Skuzzy. What file type compresses the most for video? Or do I just edit out everything but the area in question?

Are you trying to upload an AHF (native) video?  ZIP compresses it best.  If it is that big, after being zipped, then either split it into smaller chunks, or edit it and post up the pertinent bits,

If it is a captured video, then edit to to only show the pertinent bits and post the relevant time in the native film where it can be found.
