USERS OF TWITTER BLUE CAN UPLOAD VIDEOS LASTING UP TO 60 MINUTES

Sat 24  December 2022:

Twitter announced on Friday the long-awaited feature that its CEO Elon Musk had promised would be added to the platform: subscribers can now upload videos up to 60 minutes long from the web at 1080p resolution and 2GB in file size.

Twitter updated its Blue Page with the information, as well as a reminder that all videos must follow the company’s rules.

Previously, Twitter Blue subscribers could upload 10-minute-long videos at 1080p resolution with a file size limit of 512MB.

However, the company stated that iOS and Android users can still upload videos up to 10 minutes long, as before.

The micro-blogging platform said that it will consider modifying the quality of the video for distribution.

“We strive to maintain the highest possible video quality for all videos uploaded to our platform,” said the company’s support page.

“However, we may modify or adapt your original video for distribution, syndication, publication, or broadcast by us and our partners and/or make changes in order to adapt it to different media, including modifying the resolution and bitrate of the original video while streaming based on the speed and stability of the viewer’s internet connection,” it added.

Furthermore, the company stated that there will be no limit to the number of videos that users can upload, even if they are all the maximum length.
