I recently had an issue trying to upload my first ever Dtube vlog. Every time I clicked the submit button I would receive the infamous "Error while submitting to the blockchain" message.

My initial video was created in Adobe Premiere Pro using h264 codec with a bitrate of 16 - 24. The file size was a touch over 1.3GB and 13 minutes long.

Here are some of the steps I tried before finding the final fix.

• Filled in title, tags and description whilst video was uploading
• Tried to upload snap thumbnail first
• Encoded video with lesser bitrate of 4-6
• Shortened video from 13 minutes down to 9 minutes
• Changed title
• Changed description
• Attempted upload from Chrome, Firefox and Edge
• Attempted upload with different internet connect
• Attempted upload from different computer

After speaking and testing all of the above with one of the support devs of Dtube @heimindanger we managed to solve the issue.

I was able to publish/submit the video if I made the title "Test" description "test" and made use of only one tag.

Once I performed the above the video magically published, I was then able to edit the title, tags and description via Dtube and Steemit.

A massive thanks to @dtube and @heimindanger for putting up with me until we were able to find a work around for this issue.

Thanks to everyone else who has been supporting me, looking forward to these daily vlogs!
