Posting videos on KF - size limits, compression

[Hentai-Semitism]

What are the length and resolution limits? What's the bitrate after they get posted?

I'm new and I don't know where to find this information. I'm asking because I'm thinking of making a thread with lots of clips I cut from movies over the years. I don't use Youtube.

200 MB, no limit on length or resolution afaik.

What's the bitrate after they get posted?

The same as the file you upload, it is not re-encoded.

From what I recall maximum size can't surpass 100mb, no clue about other limitations.

My only tip is that you use spoiler tags per video, spoiler tags being the crossed out eye icon hidden in this menu. Place the video down, then roughly select it and any corresponding text and Spoiler it. Give the spoiler a short name (it will cut off on mobile). Helps keep the OP compact and tidy.

You can also use preservetube links if needed for a Youtube video or entire channel archive. It's just an extra archive to prove the link's address for the skeptical.

Thanks! That sounds pretty good, actually. I expected them to get butchered to 300kbps or something like that.

I mean that even if I did have a Youtube account, all those clips would get DMCA'd with the quickness. Also, I have lots of obscure stuff from 80s and 90s DTV movies that can't be found anywhere.

Anyway, time to pick some clips and have some fun.

resolution limits are high enough you'll never hit them, but the compression software will break if you upload like a 50mb gif and reject your upload.

Hey Null, how many TB of images, video, attachements are on the farms right now?

It's beyond me how gif survived for so long. It was obsolete 15 years ago!

I’m pretty sure 400 mb is the limit now. It used to be 200 mb but after the site “upgrades” he doubled the max upload to 400 mb

IIRC the limit got raised to something even higher like 600 MB. Anyone know the official, current limit?

From Nux Taku feature: 1.5 GB


Just how big is the current limit for uploading this time, @Null?
