Investigate big video upload limitation #15

Closed andersruberg closed 9 years ago

andersruberg commented 11 years ago

When trying to upload big video files I get this error. 'Request Entity Too Large', 'Video file size exceeds 104857600' I guess that is due to googlecl limation or? Too bad, I was hoping to use google+ for easy backup of video files. Now I have to do it through the web interface.

Thanks for raising this.

I don't check the file-size so the problem is being thrown by the google python client. I see the correct maximum size should be 1073741824 bytes. If anyone manages to get to the bottom of this I'm very happy to make the fix, but my quick googling didn't throw up anything.

Large video files (tried > 2Gb) works fine to upload with googlecl youtube post command. Would it be possible to add uploading to youtube as an option?

Hi,

You're welcome to suggest a patch if you'd like, but I'm afraid it's not a feature I'm likely to implement myself.

I see the current limit of file size in your code is 1Gb. I know a guy said he can bypass that limitation, but the price of his script is a bit high. I'm trying to looking on the internet but no luck. Do you have any idea ?

leocrawford commented 9 years ago

I'm afraid not. This isn't something I've looked at.

I'm going to close this issue now, but happy to reopen if anyone has a patch to offer
