@dansup congrats 🙌 just installed loops and connected. Great app and thanks for all the hard work
@dansup Hi,
I've removed the app because for some unkown reason it won't work on my murena. So sad.
@dansup@mastodon.social yes, but i cannot upload a number of videos to loops with err 413 and no way to know what is wrong.
@Life_is @dansup I don't work on these apps but spotted this and I know there's a standard error code 413 which is "content too large" so it might be that your video files are bigger than the server allows.

@tdp_org@mastodon.social @dansup@mastodon.social @hejchristian@mastodon.social The files (mp4, h264, 8bit color model) are 38 MB. they are accepted for upload. it is possible however that the "optimizing" step enlarges them. but why? they are already in exactly rhe format that other files downloaded from loops already have. no optimizing required. bevor the server update the very same files had err 422. other versions of the files get uploaded, but never show up in loops without any error message.all uploads with webbrowser/studio.
@Life_is @tdp_org @hejchristian what is your loops.video username?
@dansup thanks for pixelfed! I’m loving using it, so much better than instagram (which I deleted a few years ago).
Ironically, I get more “likes” on my pixelfed photos with 30 followers than I did on instagram with 5000 followers (their algorithm hates photos).
