DTube - help - error message

in dtube •  7 years ago 

Tonight, I discovered DTube and was excited to test it out. After creating a video and uploading, I would get this error message "Please upload a snap picture" I tried re uploading though no matter what I did, this error message would come up. Does any get the same error message? I tried different web browsers though that didn't help

Does anyone know if there is a fix to this yet? I'm still having the same issue.

It might have something to do with my VPN. I don't remember how I got it to work

it's all good, I got it to work by installing firefox.

Thank you @blazing , I hope to get this to work :D I want to make some videos

Same problem here on my account and my sons too...

Try asking this question on the Dtube topic, but be careful, this page is very heavy and resource intensive because it is a very long post with lots of replies!
Else you can maybe try contacting the team directly? maybe...

same here! I was excited to test out DTube. I've been wanting use a platform based on Steem ever since I heard of SteemQ. Exciting times!

yes i think there are like 3 diff ones now are there? or is there just the 2?

SteemQ though that project never was developed. view.ly though I don't know if it's based on Steem or not. Then of course, DTube, based on Steem

I'll try it again, thanks

From what I have rad on the topic you need to click on "upload snap" and upload the image that will be used as the thumbnail! Please, try doing that and tell me if it has worked

I tried uploading a snap though I would still get the same error message

Oh, then we do have a big problem... No idea how to proceed then, I am not really experient in that platform, good luck!

I also have the same issue :(

This is a very hacky solution but it worked for me just now. I have very limited bandwidth, connectivity and electricity so when an upload fails (after hours of tediously uploading a video) it is really frustrating. For this to work you need to already have a video posted to D.Tube so when you get the Snap Upload error do the following: Open a new tab in your browser. Then open a page to one of the videos you have previously posted. Once it is open select Edit. Then select Advanced. Then copy the characters in the field labeled Snap Hash. Then go back to your other tab where you got the error and select Advanced. Then paste the characters (hash) that you copied into the Snap Hash field. Then press the Submit button. It just worked for me. It will use the image that the other video had as it's Snap. Good Luck!

I am having the same problem on Chrome. I had problems uploading video if I just click on the upload square to call the file window but if I drag the video into the square on the upload page it works fine.

But then the upload snap issues arises. I tried taking a snap directly from the video and that worked in that it took the snap and saved it to my computer. But it will not upload it properly. I renamed the image from "snap" to a more descriptive title and it still didn't work.
