It is working.


But, it gets complicated. You are allowed a video of 15mb and 30 seconds.

So the program will:

select a video of any length, lets say 5 minutes.
It will detect this and split it into 10 videos.
IT will check the FPS (must be less than 40)
It will check the resolution 32x32 -> 1280x1024
It will schedule the uploads if had to split, so you can drip feed them in

In the middle of coding a watermark feature, so you can add a little image watermark to the video

I want to get this done today and uploaded to the testing branch.



Any suggestions what else can be done, let me know


I tried asking on BHW for video uploading suggestions - got nothing though

Not sure what can be implemented since its API bot but some features in me mind
- Browser login
- Mark media I tweet as containing material that may be sensitive ( Please check this box if your Tweets contain sensitive media so that users can be informed prior to viewing.) i think this means to flag as NSFW on Tumblr not sure if its mandatory
- Change username
- change theme color
- add header image

Lots of options for changing the design / look of the theme, these the only two options which are the main ones?

Is the splitting part just your developer speak, because that is confusing me lol.
Does the splitting affect the quality of the video?

Twitter ONLY allows videos on
<30 secs
FPS < 40
resolution : 32x32 -> 1280x1024
format: .mp4

So if you specify a video to upload of 120 seconds, it would be rejected.
So the video is split in 4 piece
1st piece: 0-30s
2nd: 30s - 60s
3rd: 60s - 90s
4th: 90s -> 120s


If a watermark image is supplied, this is added to each video piece.
The videos are then uploaded 1st to last


The quality *shouldn't* be reduced, the conversion routine will try and maintain all values. But depending on what you feed in, the output has to be .mp4, so some change *could* happen.

But as Twitter will do some processing on the supplied video anyway, the end result may be different due to *their* processing.


All converted videos are stored, so you can check out their quality yourself.

Just these two when you click on edit profile
Also for update multiple account would be good to chose random color from selection for each account
