One of the worst parts of uploading to YouTube, especially large and long HD quality videos, is waiting for YouTube to finish processing the video so people can watch it. I normally create a 15 minute or so video, in HD quality, upload it sometime before 11am to YouTube and it often won’t be available until after 6pm. The upload process takes an hour or so and the processing can take several more hours.
On very limited occasions, those videos never make it out of the “in processing” status and then you have to reupload all over again. Never fun.
This time, Liz from the YouTube support team has confirmed a bug in the upload process. She posted a thread at YouTube Help the other day saying:
It is nice to know YouTube is looking into the fix.
