Question about movies encoded with libtheora

[Manuel Dahmen]

I have a question about a movie I 've encoded with libtheora.

It's a video 2000x2000 with Theora codec and no audio.

The video is fine with some players, but it isn't read in youtube.

Sounds like a YouTube problem? Try a different format maybe?

http://www.youtube.com/t/howto_makevideo mentions specifics.

People won't be able to watch it on YouTube in Theora anyway.

Youtube's Theora support has been broken for a long time. You have two
options.

1. Use the "VP3-compatible" mode in libtheora. This hurts
quality/efficiency, but Youtube can decode it properly.

2. Use a different codec. I have had success with VP8.

You have two options.

3. Upload it elsewhere (where they keep Theora rather than try to
decode it ...) ompldr.org
