Mp4 is a known issue. For some reason some mp4’s download as “weird” mp4’s which aren’t accepted here. Here’s a fix:Was just coming here to report the same thing, can't attach an mp4.
There's a magic command for taking any video of any format. Got a MOV? Got a weird MP4?
1. Download ffmpeg.
2. Use the magic command. This works on Linux (if installed via package manager) and Windows (as .exe if you've moved your command line to the same directory).Download FFmpeg
ffmpeg.org
ffmpeg -hwaccel auto -i YOUR_VIDEO_DOT_ANYTHING -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3.0 -crf 22 -preset medium -c:a aac -strict experimental -movflags +faststart -threads 0 OUTPUT.mp4
You can also use the -vf scale=-2:720 parameter to scale it to a certain size. 1080, 720, 480, 360 are common ones. The -2 scales it to the nearest even number (which is a requirement for the MP4 container). You can swap the dimensions, i.e. -vf scale=1280:-2
The less important the video is, the smaller you can scale the video. If it's totally irrelevant just make it 360p and call it a day. This is the easiest way to reduce video size. Don't fuck with the audio, audio is more important almost always.
Full version with scaling:
ffmpeg -hwaccel auto -i yourvid.any -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3.0 -crf 22 -vf scale=-2:720 -preset medium -c:a aac -strict experimental -movflags +faststart -threads 0 output.mp4
That wasn't the problem, I tried uploading images I had already successfully uploaded and posted beforehand and they weren't working either.Mp4 is a known issue. For some reason some mp4’s download as “weird” mp4’s which aren’t accepted here. Here’s a fix:

Yeah, it got resolved.The problem was persistent but seems to be resolved, or at least it's working on my end now,
