Welcome to the discussion on dealing with the VIDEO UPLOAD IO ERROR on Chaturbate. Many members have encountered this frustrating issue, and several solutions and insights have been shared to tackle it:
- Initial attempts to resolve the error include rebooting PCs, routers, and clearing cache and browser history, which did not resolve the issue.
- Switching operating systems was suggested, with mixed results. While uploading from a Linux/Ubuntu setup was problematic, switching to a Windows OS seemed to help some users, though not all.
- The error appears to be inconsistent, affecting uploads at different times and under various conditions, hinting at possible server-side limitations or upgrades.
- Official support from the platform suggests the problem is known and a fix is expected within 3-4 weeks. In the meantime, using alternative browsers like Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome, ensuring the video file is under 150mb and in a common format (.wmv, .mpg, .avi, etc.), may offer a temporary workaround.
- Observations from users suggest that uploading during less busy times of the day may increase success rates, potentially due to lower server load.
