support, and our suggestions for how to maximize the quality of the
presentation of your video on our site.
If you have multiple videos to upload, you can upload via an RSS feed. Click here for more information about that process.
Step 1:
Choose the file to upload, either from your local computer, or from
a URL. Note that By clicking Continue, you are agreeing to the Terms of
Use and Acceptable Use policies.
The progress of the upload is displayed as you progress from step to
step. If you close your web browser, or navigate away from this
sequence before the upload process is completed, your upload will be
cancelled.
Step 2:
- Enter a title for your video.
- Enter a description for your video. The more detail you enter about
your video, the more likely the Veoh community is to find and watch
your video.

After uploading your video, you can view the status of your video on
your My Videos page. Your video could be in one of the following states:
- Web Upload Incomplete
Your
web upload did not complete successfully. The reason this could have
happened include, leaving the upload page before the upload completes,
losing your connection for very large files or other network problems.
You can return to step two of the upload process and try again, or try
using the Veoh client for publishing larger files.
Note, if you publish using a remote URL you could receive this message for a short
time while the file is being uploaded directly from server to server. If your
problems persist please contact our support team.
- Uploading from Veoh client software
Your file is being uploaded
from your client software to the Veoh peer-to-peer network. This is a
background process and will complete based on available bandwidth.
If you used a web upload for this video this status could display briefly as
the file is added to our peer network.
- Processing Video
Your video is being processed by the Veoh system before publishing.
This includes creating the web preview, generating screen captures and other
processes. Typically this process will take less than 30 minutes, although
high volumes could slow the process slightly.
- Error - File Not Recognized
Veoh does not recognize the file uploaded as a valid video file supported by our system.
Veoh supports a wide range of formats and by a wide range of encoding
programs. However, at times our system cannot identify the video or audio
encoding used and rejects the video.
If you have received this error, please verify that your video is encoded in a supported format. If your video is in one of these formats, contact our support team for assistance.
- Error - Player Upload Failed
A video uploaded from the Veoh
client software was not able to be successfully uploaded.
Causes of this could be turning off your computer, disconnecting from the
internet or uninstalling Veoh before the upload was complete or deleting the
file before it was completely uploaded. This error should not occur for
videos uploaded from the web upload form.

saved layouts.
