Videos stopped uploading

It’s Saturday today and I’ve noticed that video’s have stopped being uploaded.

The last one shows up on Thursday after that it won’t uploaded. Even the numbers aren’t changing.

I checked, there isn’t any new version available, so is it just my account or anyone else’s?

Yesterday I tried to post a video and when it didn’t show up under the photo tab I deleted it. Could that have caused any issue?

I don’t have a video to upload and test.

Do you get an error message? Does such videos show up on your contribution list?

Hi @waza28 ,

I have posted a video yesterday (Saturday) and it is publicly posted. There is no issue as such.

However, at times Videos get publicly posted after couple of days of posting them in Google Maps and accordingly reflects in numbers.

Thank you @Kumaarsantosh

How long does it normally take for a video to be uploaded?

The video doesn’t show up and the numbers didn’t change thats why I thought something must be wrong.

No error message.

Normally a week or so @waza28 but I have a recent example of getting my video publicly posted after about 3 to 4 weeks.

Such cases are rare else they are hidden.

So, in my view there is no issue with uploading videos, it’s the moderation which takes time in some cases.

P.S.: Just a while ago to test this, I have uploaded a video from my android handset and it is publicly posted in couple of minutes.

I see one plausible explanation:

The upload failed technically somehow. Such videos will not show in your contribution list. It could be an issue in your file or the upload process that failed.

If the filter took down the video you would see it in your contribution list.

If the filter placed a block on your account preventing all new videos from you going public they would still show in your contribution list.

I’m not familiar with long delays. If the issue was affecting all users I believe we would now have seen several posts about it.

Maybe you should try uploading it again.

Cheers

Morten

See that’s the thing, I’ve never noticed that it takes this long for the video to be uploaded. So something like this is new to me. Even then, the numbers should change.

It could be to do with the file uploading. Once I upload a video I send a copy to my email. I think wifi connection was weak, few hours later it showed up on the notification that its uploading the video. That was 4-5 hours later then the original time I had uploaded.

Thanks @MortenCopenhagen
