Youtube recently increased the limit from 10 minutes to 15 minutes. I just tried to publish my 10:03 min video with the Youtube feature and it told me it must be under 10 minute and kicked me back to the regular Produce tab. Will there be an update to address this, or must I go through the two step process?

That is interesting as even when youtube had a limit of 10 minutes you could upload straight to youtube a video up to 10 minutes 59 sec, which I have done many times.

I would say until there is a patch from Cyberlink you will have to produce your video then manually upload. I prefer this method anyway because I have much more control over the quality of my videos. My youtube channel====> http://www.youtube.com/user/relate2?feature=mhsn

Hi Joshua,

It is possible to make simple registry changes to then allow you to upload videos through Power Director over the 10 minute limit.

Here is a link to another topic where the Registry changes are outlined.

I can confirn that it works for me.

Hi Robert & Joshua -

Someone on the DZ forum posted this http://directorzone.cyberlink.com/posts/list/2512.page

On Win7, the YouTubeTimeLimit entry is found at Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\CyberLink\PowerDirector\8.0

I've made the changes, but haven't put it to the test yet.

Cheers - Tony

Edit - I was just about to mention that, Kevin!
