Hey,
I have a couple of wow movies in the pipeline and have much more planned (featuring both boxing and single player content), but my upload speed is very limited. Takes about 12-13 hours to upload/process a 10m clip in HD ( which is about 1,2gb). Which is not very practical. In my area we have fibernet available, but only 2 people per node can subscribe to it until they upgrade the network for time being. Yesterday I discovered by accident my little sister who lives in a parallel street is one of the lucky fibernet bastards. She upgraded her account a month or 2 ago to 5mb fibernet upload, while she only watches comic movies on youtube with my 2,5y old niece and checks her email every other 2 weeks, if she doesn't forget to do so.
Now I own a dedicated machine in a very high end data server, with fairly sick bandwith. Uploaded a 1gyg testfile today from my sis her machine to my server and this took 4.5 minute. The ideal solution for me would be to put my movies on a usb stick, and upload them from to my channel from my sis her place. In reality we love eachother, but we bust eachothers balls on every single occasion. If she finds out I'm making movies about videogames, she is gonna make jokes about it for the next 30 years (if I was her I'd do the same, since her older brother used to mock about every single hobby she has had over the past 20 years such as ballet, flower picking, whatnot).
In order to preserve my aura, the best solution for me would be to upload a tar/gzip file that contains my movies via her connection to my server, have a beer and get back home, then upload the vid remotely from my server to my youtube account.
So my question: does anyone know a practical/existing way of uploading youtube videos from a remote server? I guess I could achieve this in php/curl (which I have experience with), but rather don't have to invent the wheel again.
Anyone any clues before I give in and become the joke for a couple of decades?
cheers
