Google AI Studio will not upload video, it just continues continues to load

Recently, I have been having trouble uploading videos to the platform, when previously I had no issues. I have tried uploading the file directly from my computer as well as from Google Drive, but the video stays loading in a holding pattern. The video is 68 MB and about 11 minutes long.

Hey @Ashe_Turner
Welcome to the community!
I am not facing any issue uploading the video with Gemini 2.0 and 2.5 models. Could you please try again.
Please let us know the model you are using and token count of the video.

I’ve been facing this issue for the past month, with both Gemini 2.5 Flash and Pro, in AI Studio.

I can’t tell the number of tokens in the video because AI Studio doesn’t get to counting them. It just loads.

I’ve tried for the past few weeks via Google Drive and directly uploading.

I ended up using a script + API to work with videos.

Exact same issue, I have even used the screen record function that ai studio provides it still isn’t working.

Hey folks, there’s a known issue regarding video uploads in AIS that we’re working on. The fix should be live in the next couple days
