Sigh. After waiting for 4 hours, and getting a succesful message, I waited another 30 miniutes only for the video to never appear. Anyone have any ideas?

Meh, I couldn't beat the first mini-boss of YouTube. I gave up.

If it still didn't appear, I suggest converting the video to another type of video file, such as .WMV, .AVI, .MOV, or .MPG. Then try uploading the video.

(And I thought Youtube was supposed to be easy to use...)

Uhh...what's .WMV and .AMV and how do I change the video?

Open it with windows movie maker then go to "save video" now upload it again. Youtube could still be converting the video also.

What if he does not use WIndows? I think you're assuming far too much.

Well, I know it works. (Yeah, I have windows) If it is still converting, it has been about 13 hours since it "finished".

I checked my Video Page, and it said they rejected the video because it was a duplicate! What's that supposed to mean?

I thought AVI dosent work. I tryed uploading a video in that format a long time ago and it never worked.

It depends on the codec that's being used. XviD works well for youtube.

(Still has no idea about the codes)

Codecs.
And it's kinda hard to help you if you don't even know what kind of video you have.

It takes my video's about 8 hours to show. It should work in a bit. I use .WMV.

Mine all uploaded in like 30 minutes and showed in like 20 each and I used windows movie maker.

As a matter of fact, most of my videos are .AVI files.

Depending on how long the video is, it usually takes me around 15-20 minutes to upload it, and around 10 minutes to be shown.
