Upload to Vimeo failed

Hi.

I have singed in to Vimeo in DR, so that when I export the video, it will automatically upload to Vimeo. When the export is complete, DR says that the upload has failed, but it gives no reason why. When I go to my Vimeo page, it shows that the video is trying to upload, but it's stuck and never completes. Has anyone else experienced this or has any tips?

Thanks,
Eric

An upload issue with YouTube was reported last week. The DR logs referred to a quota issue. BMD tech support was able to reproduce the problem according to an email reply to me. I just checked again and the upload to YouTube directly from DR worked.

This is not a popular opinion, but I just render the project out to a hard drive, then I visually check the beginning, middle, and end of the file to make sure it looks correct and the sound is there. Once I'm sure it's good, THEN I manually upload the file to whatever service I need the project to be on. This only adds a few minutes to the process, and this way you know for a fact that there are no issues (like wrong version, audio turned off, sync problems, etc.).

In post production, I've survived for years by trusting nothing and always checking my work. For a lot of reasons, I avoid automatic mechanisms that introduce an additional chance for failure.

I tried uploading to YouTube directly from Resolve Studio this morning and it worked. Just FYI.

I've also failed going to vimeo, but agree with Marc anyway. I typically make so many mistakes on my renders that its probably fortunate I have to check it first.

I use the same method that Marc uses with a separate external delivery to a ProRes master file, and then upload it to vp VIMEO. That has the big plus that you have a composite master of the finished project as a disaster backup that can be used by anything that can read ProRes.
