Sending videos #56

Closed SpaceSaver closed 2 years ago

SpaceSaver commented 2 years ago

Hi! I've made a Node.JS copycat of your project and am trying to implement it in something that allows people to watch a popular video platform over text message. I was wondering if in your research you happened to note what kinds of videos are accepted. I've been getting a 501 response when trying to upload mine. Have an excellent day!

Sorry I don't know why. I do know that sending big videos over sms isn't great. Back when I was testing, I tried sending videos and they took approximately 10 minutes for a small video. Videos that were too big just never sent.

It would seem as if since then TextNow has done something to prevent the sending of videos via the browser API, and even in the browser UI you can't send videos. I wonder if they got tired of processing them.
