Instagram is one of the most popular social's long-running examples of a mobile-only platform, and that can pose some interesting challenges for businesses. Especially now that videos are becoming as common as still photos, it's crucial to understand how to correctly get your company's media files onto its social media profiles like Instagram. Due to some reasons, however, sometimes posting video to Instagram will be probably ended with failure. If you are intolerant to Instagram down or Instagram not working errors, here we'd like to walk you through how to upload videos to Instagram from your phone's gallery. Aside from one feature that's only built-in for iPhones, regardless of your hardware and operating system preferences.
➤ Part 1 The reasons of Instagram uploading failure or Instagram videos not playing
➤ Part 2 How to add and post any video to Instagram?
You may get trapped with the situation: try to upload a video/picture to Instagram, but it simply said "couldn't refresh feed" each time you tried to refresh the page. Or, loaded the video on your phone or other camera devices and tried to add it to Instagram Stories, but it kept failing and asking to retry, and so on. Overall, those are the most common problems on Instagram caused by the following two main reasons.
Reason 1. Your video codec, frame rate, resolution, bitrate, audio codec etc are not supported by Instagram;
The rules of adding video to Instagram should be compliant with:
Formats: H.264 codec / MP4
Resolution: maximum width 1080 pixels (1080P)
Frame Rate: 29.96 frames per second
Bit Rate: 3,500 kbps video bitrate
Audio codec: AAC audio codec at 44.1 kHz monov
Duration: 3 to 60 seconds
Reason 2. Instagram videos can only be 60 seconds long, so unless your clip is already within that time limit, you may need to crop it down.
Back to our discussion, to solve the issues with Instagram video uploading, two main preparation work you need to do: Trim your video files to 60 seconds only; And get your video like MPG, WMV, MKV, AVI, FLV, MTS, MXF into MP4 with H.264 codec.
