DTube not playing on mobile phones?

in #dtube7 years ago

So one of the viewers that enjoy my videos sent me this.

i just started uploading on D-Tube so what does this mean?

He is referring to these two videos:

I noticed IPFS was struggling a lot to host the videos... I think was part of it... for some reason I had to manually seed webtorrent also not sure if thats an issue with my browser or not...

I was able to get a smaller test video to play on a samgsung s4 over 802.11ac WiFi with purposely fully internal storage... so perhaps the issue is the file size or the compression/bandwidth video settings...

What does everyone else think could also be done to improve it besides the coming IPFS improvements and seeding webtorrent for the video? Perhaps they were viewing the video over a data connection or over a lower bandwidth and higher jitter connection?

I am going to try compressing the videos for him more maybe that would help.
