Help Largest video upload to youtube???

What is the largest upload to youtube you have done in 720p?
File size / Mb?
Length / Min?


I just uploaded my first one messing around. It was only 18Mb.
It had some problems.
First I didnt know that I had to be in WI-Fi so I went in the house and connected to my network.
Then it just said waiting for Wi-Fi on the notification bar. I let it be for 15 mins while I looked for answers on the net on my home computer.
I went to update my facebook status on my droid x and it locked up...hmmm never happened before.
Had to take the battery all the way out to get it to work agian. Ok what ever there.
Then when it all came back on it started uploading the youtube vid no problem.

Weird. :thinking:

Anyways, whats the largest file you have uploaded?
 
Yesterday I uploaded a 20MB 720P video from my Droid to Youtube to test it out. I was on my 16MB Comcast cable connection on a wireless N router. Not that the wireless N matters much because the DX is not compatible, but in my experiences having an N router still makes things like uploads faster.

The video timed out several times but ultimately it uploaded in about 25 minutes with the timeouts which were no more than 30 seconds to a minute in between. Can't explain the timeouts but ultimately I think this day and age you're lucky if you're PC doesn't time out while plugged in to ethernet and uploading an HD video.

I am actually very impressed with the outcome.
