I cannot upload video too, I think there is a bug in the system.
I thinkt I have a permission issue becouse if I would upload from folder only the pictures are appears, no videos are available.
Hello @Eman_Dreams, @Rodrigo , @maridat123 and everyone:
I had the same problem and finally I found a solution. (No, I wasn’t able to get any help even from mods.)
First, the video HAS TO BE TAKEN using Android phone. Nothing else works.
Second, the total length should NOT be longer than 30 sec, preferably 28 sec. Earlier, when Google started to allow videos they trimmed it to 30 sec when you tried to upload a longer one. Nowadays they do not trim they just do not post it. If you try to upload a video longer than 30 sec you get the confirmation that you’d get 7 points as soon as they approve the video. They never do (without a notice) if it is longer than 30 sec.
Conclusion: only try to post a video that was taken with an Android phone AND it isn’t longer than 30 (even better 28) sec.
Good luck.
PS: somtimes it does make a difference wether you shoot portrait or landscape format video. I can’t figure out the pattern but I personally have better luck posting landscape ones.
Thanks for the mention. I tested these already and there was no way to upload. The video folder simply not appear when I want to choose file to upload (Android 8.0, <30sec). I think I experience a permission bug.
