Enhanced & Transparent Video Upload process for Mobile users - 3Speak Mobile

Video Upload Process

What the change?

  • Based on feedback on the 3Speak Acela app, we are working on improving user-experience for video upload for our users.
  • We are making video upload & encoding more transperant instead of showing the loading indicator for-ever.
  • When you start uploading the video there are many things under the hood going-on.
  • We've minimized them as much as possible.
  • We are also showing what's going under the hood.

Video upload tasks

In the video, you can clearly see that, we complete following tasks to mark a video as completed from the mobile app.

  • Launch video picker from mobile app
  • Compress the video (for iOS Users) to HD format
  • Upload the video
  • Take 1st frame of video as thumbnail
  • Upload thumbnail
  • Move the video to Encoding QUEUE

What should I do as a User?

  • Once video is moved to Encoding queue, you can resume your work.
  • You can always come back & check the app to see if your video has completed processing or not.
  • Launch app > Open Side Menu > Tap on my-account > Switch to 2nd tab with rocket sign.

2nd Tab

Alright. When can I do this?

  • We are working on it
  • We'll provide you the updated app very soon.
  • Stay tuned for more updates.
