Troubleshooting tips for uploading your videos (🧵):

• If you're allowlisted to upload video, both the mobile and the browser clients will let you select .mp4 and .mov files

• If the upload hangs, it’s a filetype/codec issue and you need to reencode  the video (handbrake.fr is free and open-source)

I have a couple of questions, if I may.
1. For the upload to work, I have to be connected to a VPN, is this normal?
2. Are videos hashed or something? I mean, if I upload the same video again, the system reuses the 1st one?
3. What's the answer to the meaning of life, the universe and everything else?

It's nothing serious, just curiosity (except for 3.). The VPN trick I think I saw it on one cast of yours, If I recall correctly something about a US east server, but actually the video upload works just fine with a local server (I'm in Spain).

42, I knew it. Now we need to know what does that 42 means. 😅 😉 Thx!

I can't answer 1 & 2, but @dwr.eth, @gt, or someone else on the FC team probably could. ( @eclecticmethod also needs to use a VPN to upload videos, last I heard.)
