Everytime I attempt to upload a video to youtube or photobucket only 15 seconds worth transfers. The video transfers to my computer ok as 3GPP2 quicktime but the transfer is the prob. Any ideas which can help?

I'm not familiar with photobucket, but have no problems with youtube. What O/S are you using & what file format?

I'm using windows XP (Japanese version) and the format is .3G2 ??? It's from my phone.
This is the said video which cuts off at 15 secs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJYVSW6OmMM

70.6! :eek:

Have you tried converting the videos to another format before uploading? Maybe they don't like 3G2.

70.6 is a bit naughty ne.
I've tried to change the format but can't manage to. As mentioned it's ok on my pc and I can email it ok. Strange.:(

I'm not familiar w/ 3G3 or uploading from a phone. You can't use media player or Movie Maker to save it as a WMV? Youtube likes WMV's.

The bummer here is that I can view it as media player, but can't save the friggin thing. I've got the Edgar Britts now.

Have you tried loading it in to Windows Movie Maker, then saving as a WMV?

Get this SUPER programme (http://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=SUPER_1). It lets you transcode between a wide variety of video formats. You'll want to convert 3G2 to AVI/WMV in order for YouTube or Photobucket to take it.
