LIKE IT BRO!! Not very long video.

yea i tried to keep them short cause it takes so long to down load onto youtube, this one took about 25 minutes and i have high speed internet too

That's cause it is in 1080P.  How big was the original file?  I uploaded a couple in 1080P that were much longer than that and it did not take that long.  Hopefully your boat is faster than your upload speed.  :smile28:

mat the size is 43.2mb.......... and if the boat is not as fast as the upload than boat & laptop both with b at the bottom of the lake... clap.gif

Who is your service provider?  I bet your upload speed is choked down pretty good.  Not much you can do about it unless you can get Fios.  If you are only recording to upload to youtube you could reduce the resolution on your camera.  That will reduce file size significantly.  More than likely the majority of people who view your vids on youtube don't change the res from the default of 360P.
