For the last few days i've been trying to get my head around uploading to DTube, tried various formats and had almost everyone fail, until today found the perfect format, and to that end here's what I did.
Firstly here's what I used | Export as H264 with a preset of match source - high bitrate this is1080p HD
1 Loaded my footage in Premiere CC compiled my video
2 Determined which were the best export options, in a word which would work
This was where I found out my 3 second .mov worked however my 4 minute .mov didn't and displayed an error ' Video format or MIME type is not supported. I soon discovered that DTube is HTML 5 which meant it could only handle certain formats of video.
Here are the formats handled https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5_video
3 I chose H264 a 1080 x 1920 HD Format which i'd used on countless occasions on YT, it worked.
4 After uploading my video didn't play for what seemed like ages, now all I can thin is that the video had to process after uploading,
There you have it the formats you need to use to achieve HD in DTube.
Here's our video on cars and it now works, unlike the .mov version we first uploaded
