After moving some dependencies around, on the 3rd of July I broke the video compressor... The next day I wrote an article on Altipedia about the site and some videos were uploaded new users that had length as Unknown and seemed a bit too high quality for this site. I ignored all of this without caring.

5 days after the fact i decided to test the uploader because it seemed "a bit too unreliable" and found out that videos would get stuck converting for like 5 minutes, after which the frozen compressor was killed by php max runtime and the video was sent over as is, without being processed in any way.

After angrily mashing the keyboard in the code editor, I managed to fix the compressor so it somehow runs well again. All videos uploaded while the convertor was broken were fixed, except for one about gmod and shotguns that did not complete upload and hence lacked any source file.
