What file size limitations does E-zekiel.tv have?

Audio and video uploads are limited to 100MB or less; audio files are limited to 30 minutes in length; and video files are limited to 10 minutes in length. Practically speaking, your upload size may be additionally limited by your Internet connection and upload speed. A live Internet connection must be maintained for the duration of your upload. Upload speeds (even for high-speed Internet connections) are often only one third of the advertised download speed for your service. So, uploading audio or video files may still take several minutes to more than an hour.

How can I reduce my file size/upload time?

E-zekiel.tv resamples video files to 320 pixels by 240 pixels and reencodes audio to a single-channel (mono) at radio quality (22500Hz). Therefore, uploading files with larger dimensions or additional channels does not result in better quality. You can significantly reduce your upload time by optimizing your video dimensions and combining your audio channels before uploading.
