@Aklapper Sorry I thought I had specified, I am trying to replace the file via URL with this file
https://archive.org/details/who-will-be-the-wikimedian-of-the-year-2021
because the file upload limit to do it locally is 100MB, this file is around 332MB

Video is public domain, comes from here: https://www.c-span.org/video/?173083-2/house-session

Just curious if there is an update here? No rush of course!

Damn, maybe get WMF legal to talk to them? I don't know how you can have cc-licensed videos on a site and think it's a ToS violation for them to be downloaded. Sounds like a knee-jerk reaction (of legit copyright infringement) to me.

Is anyone working on this?

I feel that I ought to comment - I agree with LittleBuddhaa that a 'clips pane' with a search bar for videos from commons would be useful for editing, but I also agree with Doc_James that it's important now to stay focused on the current tool wanted: trimming and cropping. Other features can be created later.

Is there any plan to track derivatives? I propose that any new derivatives either trimmed or cropped (or both) versions have links in the metadata under the video in commons under 'other versions', and the original version also has links in metadata to link to the new version(s).

Thanks for asking! I'll hold unless there's a concensus that it can be
uploaded.

I confirm that this was the video I intended to upload.

Methinks that means this issue needs its own phabricator ticket ;D

Why would the file be deleted after 2 months?
