Bruce Del Porte Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 A little more data will help here. What type of file are you trying to upload the where? What is the exact error message? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honey07 Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 A little more data will help here. sorry, i had to type that up in a hurry...

Ganthofer Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 many things have changed here in the Forum, but I believe it still depends on what forum you are trying to post in. For instance: I can not upload an AVI in this message, but I can upload a MOV (quicktime). Most, but not all video clips you find here are MOV or mpeg because they are more (or seem to be more ) universally viewible. Many A:M'ers use MACs and many avi codecs seem to be problematic without extra software and added codecs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_black_mage Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 File size? is it under 8mb... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Im pretty sure there is a size limit. And uploading is picky about which file extensions are allowed to be uploaded. I would definately ZIP the avi file. Zip files are acceptable for uploading. Plus it'll reduce the file size, should it be over the size limit.
