Video Question..?

**volcom.airsoft** · 09-17-2010, 05:50 PM

Well first, I recorded a 49 minute long video, (sucked my battery from 87 to 24) , and it will not play on my phone D: I can watch it on the computer when plugs in, but it doesn't allow me to post on facebook. Tinypic doesn't work for me.. and yeah, I don't know what to do D: any help? and it doesn't look like 720p on the computer, but oh well.

I'm pretty sure facebook has a limit to what you can post, 49 minutes is easy above that.

Yeah, it's like 20 Minutes, but how can I get it to post from Tinypic to use it & just link it to my facebook status..?

How large is the file? Youtube allows up to 2 GB files. From there you can link to Facebook.

Youtube has a time limit too that has just been increased to 15 minutes.

I'm just curious with the video being 49 minutes at 720p, how large is the file?

Okay, 00:47:38/2.66GB It won't allow me to watch the video on my Droid Incredible either, it gives me the error "Sorry Cannot Play Video. Video Cannot Be Played."

It's because of the size. I had a few Blue-Ray's I put on my phone that wouldn't play either. It has to be a size thing.

so why would my phone allow a video to record a video & not allow me to play it on a computer or phone..?

For the same reason we have obscenely powerful production cars in the United States but not allowed to run them to their full potential due to speed limits and restrictions. I thought you said you COULD watch it on your computer when you connect your phone to it?

Also as bad as I hate to say it, is because the phone isn't meant to take 45 minute videos lol. It's meant to grab that 10 minute or less video you want to share with people. If you want to produce feature length video's either watch them on your computer or buy a video camera.
