Uploading issues[edit]

I have gone through so much trouble, just to not be able to upload this file properly. for the original file source, I have gone to here on Dropbox (courtesy of Tepo) and tried to convert from MP4 (not accepted in Commons) to WEBM. however, the file size exceeds the limit set by their serves. compressing or other things didn't work so well either.

next, I tried uploading it to the Internet Archive (to then modify it here), but the upload method there took so much time on my computer that it ultimatively failed.

please if another Wikimedian may help in this, it would be greatly appreciated. JnpoJuwan (talk) 23:45, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@C.Suthorn sorry to bother you again, but did you try to upload the full video from Dropbox? asking because you're the only one who got this far to fixing the issue. JnpoJuwan (talk) 12:21, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I commented at HD: The dropbox file is 156KB. Probably it does contain less than a single frame of video, no audio and not even complete metadata. It doesn't make sense to try anything with it. I wondered if it is only me, who sees 156KB from the dropbox file, but nobody said otherwise at HD. If there is actually a file larger that the 60MB of the original upload to commons, I don't know where. C.Suthorn (@Life_is@no-pony.farm - p7.ee/p) (talk) 13:03, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The file on Dropbox is complete, looking at the file info it says it is 870 MB. would uploading it to another platform help at all, maybe if you are having issues with Dropbox? JnpoJuwan (talk) 16:56, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@C.Suthorn I've gone ahead and uploaded it to Google Drive if it seems like Dropbox was the issue? the file is clearly bigger than 156 KB so I assume it must be an error. JnpoJuwan (talk) 17:16, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was able to download the dropbox and have uploaded a transcode of it. C.Suthorn (@Life_is@no-pony.farm - p7.ee/p) (talk) 22:02, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
