Not an answer to your question, but my suggestion would be to cut it in shorter pieces before you try to convert and upload it, By doing that you will reduce the file size and as a side benefit most likely increase the usefulness of, and the chance to the discover the videos. 

Kdenlive is a great tool to do that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kdenlive

Hi Multimedians,

I am trying to lightly edit, convert and upload about 20GB of video from Wikiconference USA. One of the conversion tools suggested to me, https://wikimedia.meltvideo.com/index.php/main, uses a self-signed security certificate that is not trusted by my browser for secure Oauth use. Another tool, the videoconvert tool on Labs, crashes my browser, possibly because it wants to put all of the video batch in RAM, and 20GB is both more RAM than I have and far more than the 3GB limit for 32 bit applications. Any other suggestions about how to convert and upload 20GB of video in a batch?

Pine
