YouTube 是一个出了名的慢平台,但考虑到服务器的负载,这并不足为奇。截至2020 年 2 月(February 2020),每分钟有超过 500 小时的内容上传到 YouTube。有了这么多的数据,至少会有一些错误。
如果您的 YouTube 视频无法正确上传(doesn’t upload correctly)或无法处理,您可以采取一些步骤来解决问题。其中一些就像等待几分钟然后重试一样简单,而另一些则更复杂。无论哪种方式,如果视频处理花费了不可接受的时间,这里有一些事情可以尝试。
等几分钟
这听起来像是陈词滥调,但有时只需等待 10 到 15 分钟即可。YouTube上传器不会实时显示进度,因此它可能比显示的更远。当然,如果它在几个小时后冻结或没有任何进展,您应该尝试另一个步骤。
上传视频后,YouTube的处理时间可能会因活动而异。如果YouTube(YouTube)服务器上的活动过多,则可能需要更长时间。
1. 检查您的互联网连接
YouTube没有官方建议的上传速度,但一般的经验法则是越快越好。谷歌(Google)建议传输 1080p 视频的速度至少为 5 Mbps,因此粗略的估计是将上传速度减半。
无论哪种方式,如果您的Internet连接不稳定或您遇到速度降低的问题,都可能会影响您的上传速度。使用Speedtest 之(Speedtest)类的工具来测量您当前的速度有多快。
2.直接连接到您的路由器
Wi-Fi的稳定性总是比通过(Wi-Fi)以太网(Ethernet)直接连接稍差。当您尝试上传视频时,请直接连接到您的路由器,以消除任何来自Wi-Fi的干扰机会。
同样,请始终尝试从计算机而不是移动设备上传 - 除非您可以以某种方式将移动设备直接连接到路由器。
3.禁用你的VPN
如果您使用VPN进行更安全的浏览,请在尝试上传YouTube视频之前将其关闭。虽然它可以帮助保护您,但它也会干扰视频上传并降低您的互联网速度。在上传视频之前,请暂时关闭您的VPN。
4. 清除缓存
清除缓存(Clearing your cache)涵盖了许多故障。好消息是它很容易做到。虽然具体过程因浏览器而异,但它遵循类似的过程。要清除Chrome中的缓存:
- 选择右上角的三个点。
- Select More Tools > Clear Browsing Data。
- 选择缓存的图像和文件。
- 选择清除数据。
如果您不想清除缓存,另一个技巧是打开隐身(Incognito)窗口。这也将消除插件的任何干扰。
File > New Incognito Window打开一个隐身窗口,也可以按CTRL + Shift + N或CMD + Shift + N。
5. 交换网页浏览器
并非所有浏览器都生而平等。如果您无法在一个浏览器上上传视频,请尝试使用其他浏览器。一般建议是将Chrome用于任何与 Google 相关的内容,包括YouTube。如果可以避免,
请不要将Microsoft Edge用于任何事情。(Microsoft Edge)
6.更改视频格式
YouTube 支持多种(wide range)视频格式。如果您尝试上传 .MOV 文件但无法正常工作,请将其转换为其他格式,然后尝试重新上传。例如,.MP4 是YouTube 上(YouTube)最常用的文件类型之一。
您可以下载免费软件,用于在 Windows 10(on Windows 10)、Android等设备上转换视频。您还可以找到在线网络转换器,但由于需要上传然后重新下载大型视频文件,这些通常效率较低。
7.减小视频文件大小
YouTube 的最大文件大小为 256GB,或最长 12 小时。无论(Whichever)您首先到达哪个都是截止点。如果您的视频文件太大,请尝试缩小它。您可以通过以下几种方法来做到这一点:压缩视频(compressing the video),缩短其总长度,并从视频中删除其他内容,如音乐或叠加层。
您可以采取的另一个步骤是更改分辨率。如果视频是 4K,请考虑将其降低到 1080p。虽然它会影响视频的整体质量,但它可能会使上传更容易。
8.卸载并重新安装应用程序
有些人只使用手机在YouTube 上(YouTube)创建内容。如果您尝试从 iOS 或Android设备上传,问题可能出在应用程序上。卸载YouTube应用,然后在手机上重新安装。这不仅可以清除任何潜在的故障,还可以确保您拥有最新版本的应用程序。
9.删除视频并重新开始
如果您的视频无法处理,有时您只需要再试一次。如果您的互联网连接速度较慢或您的 ISP 限制上传,您最不想做的就是删除您的视频并重新上传 - 但有时,您只能这样做。
- 登录(Log)您的YouTube帐户并选择管理视频(Manage Videos)。
- 找到不会处理的视频并将光标悬停在它上面,然后选择三个点。
- 选择永久删除。
执行此操作后,您的视频将从您的页面中消失,但您可以重新上传并重试。有时,上传数据中的故障会干扰视频性能,让您别无选择。
YouTube 是发展品牌(growing your brand)或发布有趣视频的绝佳平台,但有时您必须帮助它解决一些问题。尝试这九个修复程序,让您的视频直播并更快地收集视图。
YouTube Video Not Processing or Uploading? Try These 9 Fixes
YouTube is a notoriously slow platform, but that’s nоt overly surprising given the load the sеrvers are under. Αs of Februarу 2020, morе than 500 hours of content were uploaded to YoυTube every minute. With that much data, there are going tо be at least a few errоrs.
If your YouTube video doesn’t upload correctly or won’t process, there are steps you can take to resolve the issue. Some of them are as simple as waiting a few minutes and trying again, while others are more complex. Either way, if video processing is taking an unacceptable amount of time, here’s a few things to try.
Wait a Few Minutes
It sounds like trite advice, but sometimes waiting 10 to 15 minutes is all it takes. The YouTube uploader doesn’t show progress in real-time, so it might be farther along than is displayed. Of course, if it freezes after multiple hours or makes no progress whatsoever, you should try another step.
Once the video is uploaded, YouTube’s processing time can vary depending on activity. If there is too much activity on the YouTube servers, it might take longer.
1. Check Your Internet Connection
There are no official suggested upload speeds for YouTube, but a general rule of thumb is the faster, the better. Google suggests a speed of at least 5 Mbps to stream 1080p video, so a rough estimate would be to halve that speed for uploading.
Either way, if your Internet connection isn’t steady or you’re experiencing reduced speeds, it can impact the rate of your upload. Use a tool like Speedtest to measure how fast your current speeds are.
2. Connect Directly to Your Router
Wi-Fi will always be slightly less stable than a direct connection through Ethernet. When you try to upload a video, connect directly to your router to eliminate any chance of interference from Wi-Fi.
In that same vein, always try to upload from a computer rather than a mobile device – unless you can somehow connect your mobile device directly to your router.
3. Disable Your VPN
If you use a VPN for more secure browsing, turn it off before you try to upload a YouTube video. While it will help protect you, it can also interfere with video uploads and reduce your internet speed. Before you upload a video, temporarily turn off your VPN.
4. Clear Your Cache
Clearing your cache covers a multitude of glitches. The good news is that it’s easy to do. While the exact process varies from browser to browser, it follows a similar process. To clear your cache in Chrome:
- Select the three dots in the top-right corner.
- Select More Tools > Clear Browsing Data.
- Select Cached images and files.
- Select Clear data.
If you don’t want to clear your cache, another trick is to open an Incognito window. This will also eliminate any interference from plugins.
You can open an incognito window through File > New Incognito Window, or you can press CTRL + Shift + N or CMD + Shift + N.
5. Swap Web Browsers
All browsers are not created equal. If you can’t get a video to upload on one browser, try using a different browser. A general suggestion is to use Chrome for anything Google-related, including YouTube. And don’t use Microsoft Edge for anything if you can avoid it.
6. Change Video Format
YouTube supports a wide range of video formats. If you’re trying to upload a .MOV file and it won’t work, convert it to a different format and then try re-uploading it. For example, .MP4 is one of the most commonly used file types on YouTube.
You can download free software for converting video on Windows 10, on Android, and more. You can also find online web converters, but these are typically less effective due to the need to upload and then re-download large video files.
7. Decrease Your Video’s File Size
YouTube has a maximum file size of 256GB, or a maximum length of 12 hours. Whichever of those you reach first is the cut-off. If your video file is too large, try to reduce it. A few ways you can do this is by compressing the video, shortening its overall length, and removing additional content like music or overlays from the video.
Another step you can take is to change the resolution. If the video is in 4K, consider dropping it to just 1080p. While it will impact the overall quality of the video, it might make it easier to upload.
8. Uninstall and Reinstall the App
Some people use only their phones to create content on YouTube. If you’re trying to upload from an iOS or Android device, the problem might lie in the app. Uninstall the YouTube app and reinstall it on your phone. Not only will this clear up any underlying glitches, but it will also ensure you have the latest version of the app.
9. Delete the Video and Start Over
If your video won’t process, sometimes you just have to try again. If you have a slow internet connection or your ISP throttles uploads, the last thing you want to do is delete your video and re-uploaded it – but sometimes, that’s all you can do.
- Log into your YouTube account and select Manage Videos.
- Find the video that won’t process and hover your cursor over it, then select the three dots.
- Select Delete forever.
Once you do this, your video is gone from your page, but you can re-upload it and try again. Sometimes a glitch in the upload data can interfere with video performance, leaving you no other option.
YouTube is a great platform for growing your brand or just posting fun videos, but sometimes you have to help it work out a few kinks here and there. Try these nine fixes to get your video live and gathering views that much faster.
