Try again, i changed the server configuration.

But keep in mind, everyone has a upload limit of 200 vids per 24hrs. If one user reached that, the script won't accept new videos.

What do you mean by "If one user reached that, the script won't accept new videos"? U counted per user all total of user?

So "RapidVideo" only accepted 200 file per day for all user?
 
I ask you for optinion, should we decrease/cut the earnings/rewards, but in return we give you better encoding speed and no upload limits ?

Encoding few videos can't take up to few days, if you can't afford to pay uploaders and at the same time have fast servers just stop paying them and focus on providing quality service.
If you still want to have partner program and you're using premium acc's maybe you coudl change your program from "earning money" to "getting points" and building unlimited network of premium resellers ? I'm wondering, why allmost all hosts forget about excellent mechanism that RS had back in time with thier Premium accounts. That was great, they didn't pay to uploaders but they was giving them points for downloads, from that points user coudl generate premium account and resell all those accounts to other users. Everybody was happy. :sun:

Right now, encoding speed is improved a lot, soon all 240-480p is done, some of piroritzed users done and now the rest with 720p - 4K

I take a look at remote upload and improve it again, so it can accept links better.

Right now, i work on the intrastructure and backend.
 
at times i keep getting this error loading player:no playable sources found

I thought it was encoding so i gave it day and still seeing it
 
Can you send me your link via PM?

Maybe it was the wrong file extension, so it was accepted as file only.

Well, this could work and we can exchange points with ad-free streaming like own CDN or use it to extend premium account

please keep in program " earning money", not all user rich, they need money to pay RDP or hosting, monthly.
 
Ok, users can still earn money.

Next changes will be:

- earnings converted to points, users will now earn points instead of money
- user can buy premium with premium or generate/resell premium vouchers from points
- user can convert points into ad-free streaming.
- user can convert points into money.
- more high availability, better data protection and fewer downtimes/problems with any video.
- more servers for the database, interface and webpages to increase processing and reduce overall load on webpage.

What do you think, guys?
 
i just saw this thread, rapidvideo looks really nice. some suggestion:

forget 240p/360p/480p conversion for same video files and no need 4K video (4k watcher always prefer to download the files due to large video size, only some movies released in 4k). people who watch movie on pc mostly prefer 1080p~720p quality (example for a movie 1~1.5gb). instead multiple conversion you can use "very slow x264 preset" for conversion. it will make the video file size small without reducing video quality. "very slow x264 preset" reduce almost 30% size. however i used to encode only anime video, not sure about movies.

sometimes people change md5 hash before upload so system don't detect it as same file and re-encode the file again. may be you can do it like this way if video time duration same check some random video frame to match, if multiple frame match system will detect it as same video file uploaded before by some other uploader. it's just an idea not sure if possible but if possible you can save lots of resources.

and if you still prefer multiple conversion, may be do it in future when site become popular and you making enough money from site. right now you have to make happy uploader as well :P

there is no download speed difference for free and premium user, only ads shows for free user. in that case make premium account price small. calculate how much money you can make from a user as free user ads view. i don't think it will be more than 1~2USD. may be 20USD for 1year. well it's just a suggestion, you can always increase price any time you want.

well we are already using "slow" preset with CRF 23 for all videos.

About MD5... We use that, but we have another method to check too. So its not just MD5 hashing. ;)

About multiple format conversion, it is too late, can't changed. :)
 
does rapidvideo delete original uploaded file? if not can you allow user(free) to download original file if he uploaded that file? will you consider to add light on/off option, progress bar thumbs like youtube has.
 
Yes, after encoding the source files will deleted. Most cases the highest quality is 1:1 as the source file, if they are below the bitrates limit, that I set.

Light on/off already implemented.

Progressbar Thumbs, it is still in making.
