When trying to upload a video, I get the following error when hovering over the upload zone.
<html>
<head><title>500 Internal Server Error</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>500 Internal Server Error</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx/1.10.3</center>

I was a little disappointed to see that this only loads videos from IPFS gateways, and does not use ipfs-js. With the recent popularity of peertube I was looking for IPFS equivalents, however all but moshisushi/hlsjs-ipfs-loader seem to only use the gateways.
This means there is zero p2p action happening and 100% of the bandwidth always goes to the hard coded set of gateways.
It would be great if the IPFS video players that are being developed could actually use ipfs-js to gain the P2P ability that IPFS provides, and not just use small number of free gateways.
How to remove the 256MB filesize cap?
Hello, i can not find any instructions on how the site works.
So i clicked to select a video file. It plays after i clicked play button couple of times.
But when i open the resulting URL via proxy, then video does not play.
Firefox developer console (F12 key) shows:
Trying url http://127.0.0.1:8080/ipfs/browse.php
browse.php:63:4
HTTP “Content-Type” of “text/html” is not supported. Load of media resource https://usproxy.vpnbook.com/browse.php?u=IilExMXzkMwzmoSe8KoFxt8X448zWn1CCNsvkM1bMyF6aP3PO%2BumgIBE5Ag63XHnJoAUpQ%3D%3D&b=0 failed.

Cannot play media. No decoders for requested formats: text/html
Where is watched or uploaded video stored on my Windows 10 PC please?
I found .ifs folder in C:\Users\myusername
There is datastore folder, but how to know which file i can delete if i want to free up some space, but not delete certain shared files i want to keep.
Can this player be ipfs-hosted and used without a dedicated server?
The project was a demo but it need an upgrade.
I uploaded a music video that was a flv and it was 8.6 mb It seemed to upload to ipfstube with no problem but it will not play back the video. Here's the hash QmV8bnFzVzCAL4Yf3c9PVjue7WtNWrH5pZDCU5nQRUKmaK
And when I put the hash in the search bar and click on watch I get unable to load video, took you a screenshot. 
You need to start a ipfstube twitter account to help promote it and to get feedback.

Tried Firefox and Chrome.

Can this be integrated with Wordpress as a VOD service? There a number of plug-ins that offer VOD, but I am just wondering whether IPFS is a viable alternative to costly cloud storage. Thanks.
jdr
get this when trying to upload
Is there possible to use my own ipfs node to save the videos,the network is NOT data-persistent,i have lost a lot of videos.
Please tell us how to run this on our own ipfs node,rather than some random node of the ipfs network.
thanks
What would be the advantages for IPFSTube to start everything from scratch?
I vote GPLv3
It would be great to have some more information in the readme. Particularly to do with getting started.

I use Google Chrome but not work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If possible try to set up ipfstube to look more like this program called MediaDrop. http://mediadrop.net/ MediaDrop has more of a youtube look and feel to it. You might even be able to set up MediaDrop itself on IPFS, I'm not for sure though I'm not a coder.
