I’m trying to post a 87 second video and getting an error. Any thoughts on troubleshooting that? #asknostr
Discussion
What client are you using?
Damus
I'm not a Damus users, so I can't be of much help here. However if it's a large video, such as one that's in 4K, it may be too large to upload directly. You may need to get a nostr.build account or visit that website and upload the video manually and then copy the link and paste it into Damus.
Double check which site you are uploading to in settings for damus too
What do you mean which “site”? I don’t see site as an option in settings. But it’s 137MB so def bigger than 4, it’s a yoga demo I thought I’d put out there ☺️ if I can with this out. When I work it out 😅
Maybe you already got this answer elsewhere, but the Damus app doesn’t store files for people. Instead it connects you to a service that does. The service you’re using probably has a free tier that you’re exceeding by trying to do such a large file. You can purchase additional storage to up your limit!
Also, you don’t have to use the damus file uploader, if you have a url link to the video you can just share that link and damus and other apps will show that like any other video
Thank all you guys. Grappling with all this newness, I’ll be back soon to try again. Appreciate all the advice 🤩
I too had problems today on primal
It’s because of the size of the file, when they weigh a lot of Mb it doesn’t allow you. You must use a service with more capacity and there yes.
I see. So first I choose and pay for a Relay and then that will allow me to upload to it?
You can use a service like nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7 or also with nostr:npub18kzz4lkdtc5n729kvfunxuz287uvu9f64ywhjz43ra482t2y5sks0mx5sz
If you purchase a nostr.build account you can upload any size video.
We are integrated with Damus, Amethyst, Snort, Iris, Coracle, NoStrudel. Or you can manually upload to your account page!
Super helpful. Thank you 🫶
Upgrade to nostr.build premium https://nostr.build/plans
