From what I can see, the video path you have specified to upload is invalid.


How did you specify the video file to be uploaded? Did you try and use an import file? If so, can you send me the file.


c:Sites\...


that is wrong, should be c:\Sites...

Not sure if that is the reason, as there seems to be a pipe | as well in the name, but that may just be a meta title, so not sure if that is a problem as well

ok I did have the path wrong :(, there was a pipe in the description because the you tube videos explain it with pipes so that part was the problem also, but now when it post videos it repost the same videos, if I select unique uploads only then it won't post any videos, any idea why it's doing this?

Thanks

Sounds like my random image posting question recently. Martin implemented a work-around by adding a file-statement. That way, randomization would occur for each tweet made by 1 single Action. (search tweet image not random)

ok. The pipe was a variable separator
but now when it post videos it repost the same videos, if I select unique uploads only then it won't post any videos, any idea why it's doing this?

Again, I'd need logs. But if you are trying to upload the same video that has been uploaded before, then no it won't upload. If you don't check it, then yes it will upload the same video.

IF the issue is: check unique and the program will NOT upload a video that has NOT been uploaded before. Please attempt a single upload and then send logs
