Error when tweeting a video

Error when tweeting a video

Closed this issue 2 months ago · 11 comments

Hi, I'm using the library (ver 1.5.11) to upload videos.
I'm uploading the video like this:

media_id = await client.upload_media(source=video_bytes, media_type="video/mp4")
client.create_tweet(
    text="Video Tweet",
    media_ids=[media_id],
    is_note_tweet=True. # I'm using premium so i can post longer texts and videos
)

The upload is successful, but when I post the tweet I'm getting this err:

2024-04-30 21:43:23 - root - INFO - Media uploaded: [1785379xxxxx1136]
2024-04-30 21:43:24 - root - ERROR - Error while posting to Twitter: BadRequest: Not valid video (324)

Anybody?

Answer 1 · 2024-05-01T17:01:21.000Z

@david-lev That's because the video upload is not yet complete. Set wait_for_completion to True to wait until the upload is complete.

media_id = await client.upload_media(source=video_bytes, wait_for_completion=True, media_type="video/mp4")

@d60 Thanks for your help. I try to wait_for_completion but I'm getting this err now:

Okay, I 'awaited' manually for check_media_status and when processing_info["state"] == "succeeded" I posted the tweet. this the err in got:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Sorry I forgot to add "await". I have just released version 1.5.12 and fixed that.

That error is probably because you are trying to upload a video longer than the maximum size (2 minutes 20 seconds).

wow you are fast.. thanks!!
Premium accounts can upload longer videos. Is it possible to add support for this in the library? I can check the endpoints

@david-lev Thanks! i'll get to work on it right away, but it may take some time. If you need to use the functionality immediately, change the UPLOAD_MEDIA endpoint on line 206 of twikit/utils.py.

Answer 9 · 2024-05-01T19:32:07.000Z

@david-lev Added is_long_video argument in version 1.5.13 .You can upload long videos by setting this argument to True.
