Longer YouTube videos?
« on: December 09, 2010, 05:45:24 pm »
So I saw this in another forum, but apperantly, YouTube has allowed several accounts to allow upload of videos longer than the 15-minutes limit. And looks like I got it as well:

Anyone else got this?

Congratulations! Your account is now enabled for uploads longer than 15 minutes. Click the Upload button below to select a video.
Yeah, just checked my account.

But since I must use a proxy  server, so I usually upload files smaller than 1mb.

Yeah-ha, baby!! So glad to see this happen. I bet it'll especially benefit the videogame LP'ing community.

Yeah, when you need to record a walkthrough, it was quite a pain...

I wonder if they'll actually extend it to professional Let's Players, though. I assumed it was more for people making wholly original content, since they were giving it away very selectively.

Not too sure about this, but I think only Youtube Partners are allowed to submit videos longer than 15 minutes?

Like Ray William Johnson? :grimm

I just got permission too.

I have to say, it'd be cool to see a full playthrough of crimson echoes in one video file. or one file per chapter. Just tossing the idea out there...

 :lol: I'm uploading CE videos to skydive to free up my hard discs.
But redownloading them would be a pain.
