ok so the past 3 days i have tried to upload a edit that is only about 300MB and each time it either nearly 100% uploads then stops. or it finishes in like a minute and it says the upload is complete but it doesnt show up in my media or anywhere on the site. also right now im trying it again and i started the upload over an hour ago and it still says 9+ hours left. i tried the desktop app too but the same thing happened. i have successfully done uploads of bigger files from this computer onto ns and never had a problem. anyone else have a similar problem or am i doing something wrong? shanks guys

Do you guys use the desktop upload app?

Because that makes this the easiest thing ever. Its got all the error correction you need. Always, always, always, always use the desktop upload app!

Used it and it told me 1111h till my 700mb fill uploaded on the desktop uploader, so I did it on the online one and it took 2h. Beats me

Yeah but all progress bars are lies anyway. :)

If you leave the desktop uploader running it will certainly upload faster than that. It actually is likely more accurate than the web uploader form.

In fact, you should read this article if you're interested in the topic. There is essentially no accurate way to predict how long something is going to take. Anyone who claims differently is lying, and if it seems to work you're lucky. We beat our heads against the wall for a long, long, long time to come up with something that was as accurate as possible. However, if your connection hiccups, it throws the whole thing off and doesn't right itself until the next round of checks pass.
