PH.TV - Timing out?

[jagdpanther]

Alrighty Almighty PH Leaders

Im trying to upload a video onto the PH.TV server, but it keeps coming up with "Connetion Timed Out"

The first time I submitted the video, I think it got to around 60% complete when the error message came up

Second time it didnt get off of the mark at all and ditto third time round

Any known problems or is it just me?

there's no guarantee that it'll appear once you've uploaded it anyway. I uploaded a vid several weeks ago and it said "waiting in queue to do upload on server" or other such technical stuff .. after several weeks it's still not appeared on phtv so that must be a looooooooong queue of vids waiting now ..

Well I finally got it to upload, lets see if it goes live!

Just out of curiosity old boy, what kind of videos were you uploading as Im currently looking to make a Pistonheads video, but havent got much in the way of material

The uploading depends heavily on the size of the clip and the connection to the server when the page submits, sometimes a small break in communication will cause the clip to fail, and if the clip is quite large it has more opportunity to break as it uploads. We are looking into a way to improve the PH.TV experience, but this is a little way off at the moment so the current method is the best we have.

Trackcar, I have looked into the video you submitted and for some reason it was not allowed into PH.TV, I have asked around and we are not sure why this video was rejected (you should have received an email saying this, I will look to see why you didn't get this). But I can't see any reason why this shouldn't be on PH.TV, so email me or message below and I will get it put on the site if you want.

Well, mine went live a bit back, thankfully

It was a vid of the inlets on Pasco's Griffith on the dyno, would be good if you could put it up. thanks
