Why does it say that my youtube video is too short?

Question

I tried to upload a video onto youtube. It has audio but no pictures, it is just white. i made it on windows movie maker and it is about 4 minutes long. why is that too short? i can't work out how many mb or anything it is.

Answer 1

sounds like when u exported the movie its ignoring the whole timeline bc there's no video. if u want it just white, make a picture of nothing in paint (or whatever), and bring that picture into wmm as the video track, then stretch it out to cover the whole of the audio. sometimes that works.

edit: amazing how many ppl post answer without actually reading the question! the error is video too short, not unsupported format! when u get wmm to give u a (AVI file) that opens in media player and does what it's supposed to do, it should be ready for youtube.

Answer 2

Ensure the file format is correct before uploading to youtube...

Using windows movie maker -- you have to save it into the proper file format, that is "wmv" file (use the "save movie file" on the menu at the top left) before upload..

The WMV file will be smaller in size but still quite good quality.. so uploading it will be faster.

--for best editing....

use windaows movie maker (included in your windows machine)... it can help you make beautiful slideshow or video clip(e.g. mixing your songs with pictures/video/etc).... then save it as video file such as wmv file format... finally upload.

or .. Just get those clips you want , save & convert them, and then mix/match with pix/sound/etc using windows movie maker to create new masterpieces....

this will help you.... Use 'zillatube'. This is the easiest (and also the fastest) way.

Zillatube produces mpg/mp3 formats from youtube that are compatible with windows movie maker(or media player), and more.

It is very easy to download and convert videos. Then edit those converted mp3/mpg videos with windows movie maker... save your file as wmv and then upload.

It works very well....just google search for "zillatube"

Answer 3

Okey, i see, i think you can try this:)

Once you're happy with your final result, you'll need to save the video in a format that YouTube can accept in order to upload. Unless you're a professional video producer, we recommend that you save your videos as either QuickTime .MOV, Windows .AVI, or .MPG files— these are the most common formats and they work well within our system. We specifically recommend the MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format at 640x480 resolution with MP3 audio. Resizing your video to these specifications before uploading will help your clips look better on YouTube.

Two ways for you to upload the video.

1. If your phone supports RTSP streaming and your service carrier allows streaming videos, you can create an account at http://www.youtube.com/my_profile_mobile and then upload it via via MMS. You can also view YouTube video by typing "m.youtube.com" on your phone. However, you will be charged for data use.

2. Copy the video from your phone to your computer, and create an account at http://www.youtube.com/ and then you can upload the video.
