Web Allow mp4 and mov files as report evidence

[_PedroPF_]

Yea, but you can't comment on private videos, so all of my videos would not have comments on them. Also, most of my files are more than 100mb big, so I have to put them on youtube.

But wait, you have a channel, where you post entertaining videos, with a few that are for report and not entertainment, or just a channel where you post the videos to report?

It would be abused by people posting random vids but it's a good idea

i could do the same thing with a yt link... this just makes it more convenient for reporters

When doing reports it is currently required that I take my .mov or .mp4 file and upload it to youtube, at least for me uploading a video takes a very long time (20+ mins) and in this time a cheater has had the opportunity to go and ruin the game for other people I suggest that .mov and .mp4 files be suitable for evidence so that we get quicker punishments and cheaters are not given the opportunity to play 5+ games while someone is uploading a video to youtube.

Well, people could argue for both sides of this sugestion but I think that they could make that happen and that indeed, it would make reporting so much easier for many! We just gotta wait and see if they are able to implement that!

i can crop once its uploaded, just not before.

I use Windows Movie Maker for this, and use the YouTube option to save it. It only takes a few minutes to upload on my slow internet.

Comments shouldn't be an issue. If it is a report, it is best to keep them as unlisted because of data protection reasons. If the hacker saw the video on your channel and requested it to be removed, then you would have to comply regardless. Reporting players isn't supposed to be a way to get subscribers, it is meant to be a way to help the CubeCraft Games staff team.

From a moderation perspective, moderators are not going to be commenting on your video. If they have any issues, they will reply in your report.

Exactly, couldn’t say better so myself

I kind of agree with this... but it’s not very necessary. YouTube works perfectly fine.

Im not sure if anyone has touched on this point yet BUT you need to think about file format issues. Let’s say you upload a .mov to the reports sight and the moderator is on a MacBook... they will not be able to open the file because it’s not supported on that platform. This may be a small but irritating issue.

...

Wth maybe mine is broken then because I can’t open .mov

either way you get what I’m trying to say. Format issues.

youtube is mp4

What they mean is, directly uploading an mp4 or other video format onto reports.cubecraft.net.

@ItzEnd3r, you could actually just upload the video evidence to some other faster website or software, such as google drive, dropbox, even Imgur, providing the length of the video is not over 60 seconds. Because you are not allowed to use links from any website other than youtube, you could make a very short length video(1~2 seconds), in the video title or description, insert the link to the evidence. If your internet connection really has a not-so-good upload speed this would be a way faster solution.

You could also try to connect your PC or laptop to an Ethernet cable to your wifi router, this will result in less wifi signal loss and could make your upload speed faster.
