I’m Getting a “Still Being Converted” Message in Video on Demand

What to do if your video says “still being converted” in Video on Demand

User Experience

After uploading a video, you see the message: “This Media Is Still Being Converted.”

How to Solve this Problem

This is normal. Each video is converted into several formats to automatically support a wide variety of playback options. Video conversion can take several minutes. 

The longer the video and the higher the quality, the longer the conversion can take. Network congestion and system load can also affect how long the conversion process takes.
