Great, thanks. Looks like it's the size then.
What you can do unilaterally:
- Decrease size of the videos if possible (1 or 2 MB less should be sufficient; ~25MB is right around the current upload cap).
- If you have your own webspace available, you can host your videos there (they need not reside on the millisecond.com server). I.e., it is perfectly possible to do

<item myvideoitems>
/ 1 = "http://www.myserver.com/mydirectory/myvideo.wmv"
...
</item>

If neither of the above is viable, we can increase the upload limit.

the files are labelled, for example, neutral_video.mov so only an underscore. 

And yes, I just tried to upload a a shorter video which only measured 2mbs and that did upload. 

So is this a file size problem? If so, what are my options?

Okay, thanks. Trying to figure out whether the size is the issue or whether something else is going on?
- Are you able to upload any *small* MOVs or WMVs or do they throw errors as well?
- What are the full file names of the videos you are trying to upload? Do they contain any special characters?
- Have you changed your account password recently? If so, have you tried logging out and back in prior to uploading?

I tried it with a .mov and a .wmv - neither work

What's the file type / file extension of that video?

I am trying to upload some video files to the server, but I am getting the 505 error:

This video is just 25 mb. It is an approximately 3 min movie that I am using as an experimental manipulation
