"Validation Failed" whenever I try to upload something.

Saturday, March 19, 2022 by ShidaPenns | Discussion: DeskScapes

Hello. I was able to upload two dreams previously, my profile being:

https://www.wincustomize.com/users/7131754/ShidaPenns

I uploaded videos, as I didn't know how to make the .dream files. Well, I've tried to do the same thing, for other videos (produced in an identical way), and now it says "validation failed" when I try to upload the video file.

I even found the DreamMaker program, and made it into an actual .dream file, and it still says validation failed when I try to upload it to the site.

Am I doing something stupid?
(I always leave room for that possibility...)

mpeg: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xJJfXItcpLYDtWL7wiJmLyQ9u2INPtGl/view?usp=sharing

dream: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HKuNfdYM1mcIOrj2Dc0mjFdZQcJq_h0R/view?usp=sharing

Hopefully those links work.

Filesize of mpeg is 193,338 KB, dream is 83,781 KB.

(Edit: it's mpeg now, not the mp4 I mistakenly uploaded 🤔 )

If your video is an MP4 file then your 

Dream file should upload without issue with that file size you show.

Is that the case ?

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues.

I downloaded and tested your files .

Not a Mpeg 2 or other just MP4 or AVI .. file size limit is 150 MB's

Use a converter if you need to to get that file type .

Your video needs to to be an MP4 file type and UNDER 150 MB's file size

If it's over 150 mbs trim it down some .

then it will upload properly .
