Now all Youtube users can post videos 15 minutes long! No need to watch this video anymore.

Upload limit increases to 15 minutes for all users
We want YouTube to be the best place to upload video. Without question, the number one requested feature by our creators is to upload videos longer than 10 minutes. We've heard you, and today we're pleased to announce that we've increased the upload limit to 15 minutes.

We encourage you to take full advantage of this new time limit by making a video of your "15 minutes of fame." Imagine that this video is all the world will ever know about you: what would you want to communicate? What will be the enduring stamp you've left on us all? Tag your video with "yt15minutes," upload it by Wednesday, August 4, and we'll select a handful of people to truly gain their 15 minutes of fame by featuring them on the YouTube homepage in a future spotlight.

In the meantime, you may wonder "why now?" -- the upload limit for non-partners has been 10 minutes for years. Well, we've spent significant resources on creating and improving our state-of-the-art Content ID system and many other powerful tools for copyright owners. Now, all of the major U.S. movie studios, music labels and over 1,000 other global partners use Content ID to manage their content on YouTube. Because of the success of these ongoing technological efforts, we are able to increase the upload limit today. We will continue our strong commitment to provide advanced technology and tools to protect the rights of small and large copyright owners worldwide. We'll also do everything we can to release incremental improvements like this one that benefit our video creators.

One final note: if you're uploading a video that was previously rejected for being too long, you'll have to go into "My Videos" and delete it before attempting to upload it again. Thanks and happy uploading!

i was able to upload a 22 minute without being a partner. i got a notification saying that my account is enabled for uploads longer than 15 minutes.

@MesserProductions2 yep same thing happened to me now. Finally I won't have to see videos split into various multiple parts anymore or at least it trims down on the amount of them.

[macojeda]

sir, how can i upload a video which recorded for more than 1hr ... ??? hoping for your answer, tnx !!! :)

[Icegoten40]

@macojeda You have to split the video into 15 minute segments and upload each part.

[BritishTwits]

You people don't get it. If YouTube lets us upload more that 10 minutes, there will be SO many bugs and hackers trying to crash it.

[Icegoten40]

@BritishTwits lol are you being serious? YouTube originally had no limit in the first place...

[MrMasaud]
