How long will it take for my video to process on YouTube?

It will depend on the video type, the large the file is, and your upload speed.

depends, upload it as mp4 and it will upload faster

There are two steps. 1) Uploading. That is going to depend mainly on your connection, and the size of the file. (Not the length). It's important to remember that your speed up, is about 1 / 10 of your speed down. So if it takes 6 minutes to download a file, it will take an hour to upload the same file. (longer in imperfect conditions). You can check your speed here: http://www.speedtest.net 2) Processing This should be pretty quick. I find flv, mpeg 2 and mpeg 4 process faster then others. Something to remember, Youtube makes multiple versions available starting with 240p (very low quality). So if the video doesn't good, come back in a few minutes. NOTE: Youtube's rule of thumb for uploading is 1 - 5 minutes per MB. So if your file was 1 GB that would be as much as 5,000 minutes. - 17R3W

I think it should be finished before 5:05pm, but how long does it take to process the uploaded video on youtube, depends on your video format/codec, video profile, etc, so if your uploaded video can't be processed on youtube or take a long time to process on youtube, you'd better use a right software to convert your video to right profile and codec/format video then upload to youtube, then just need to take few minutes to process a video on youtube, you can follow me to use a free software Youtube Movie Maker, it can auto convert any profile and format/codec videos to the best profile and format/codec youtube videos then upload onto youtube, then youtube just need to take a short time to process the right profile and format/codec video, it also can be used to make and upload youtube videos from various videos, pics, musics, texts, etc. You can download it from makeyoutubevideo.com, easy to use, hope it can help you.
