WHY does it take me 80 minutes to Upload a 7 Minute Video to YouTube?? (HELP!!)
I´m currently uploading a 7,20 Minutes Video to YouTube and it takes me like 80 Minutes.
My PC Specs are:

Operating System: Windows 7 32-bit

BIOS: Default System BIOS

Processor: AMD Athlon ™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+ (2 CPUs), 2.50GHz

Internal Memory: 4,00 GB

If I missed any important data in my system specs, please tell me what you need to know.
Please Help me! I´m planning to Upload even longer videos and it can´t take so long. Sad
EDIT: The Video´s size is 477MB.

Computer specs have very little, if any, impact on upload speed - what you should do is go to speedtest.net and test your connection and show us what you got. If you have bad upload speed, the upload will take longer. It's as simple as that Smile

80 minutes for a 7 HD video is actually a very good speed. I do not have a fast connection at home, and posting a 10 HD video on youtube takes me approximately 8 hours!

For seven and a half minutes at 720p in a rather high quality format, 80 minutes isn't that bad. It would probably take a lot less to upload some 480p videos, but if you continue with HD (and you should, why not) you'll just have to wait. Go watch some sports or play a video game in the meantime or something.

By the way, you're amazing.

Damn nice work Choskar, I recognized all of the songs that I have heard before without checking the description, so kudos to you. Keep up the good work, I'm sure a lot of people will appreciate it Smile How did the speedtest go? 80 minutes is decent speed by the way.

It's not youtube's fault that you have a slower than light-speed connection...
