New – Upload 1GB Video Files to Youtube Video

It used to be that you could only upload one video at a time on Youtube and the video had to be no larger than 100 MB in file size.

I just noticed the other day (not sure when this was released) that you can now upload multiple films/videos to youtube up to one gigabyte in file size with their multi-video uploader tool. I downloaded the tool and it worked like a charm. I was able to upload 2 videos that were HD quality and roughly 200 MB each.

My suspicion is that with so many sites launching and preparing to enable and launch High-definition video, Youtube is taking a first step towards enabling HD. In addition, there have been many, including myself, that have complained about the quality of videos on Youtube as a result of the level of compression required for the previous 100 MB file size limit. So, as a result, we should look for more high quality videos on Youtube in the near future. Of course, more high quality crap videos as well.

Here are the specifics of this new tool:

• Upload multiple files at once
• Small install required
• Windows only (Mac coming shortly)
• Each uploaded video is limited to 10 min and 1 GB

Here is a screenshot of the interface:
