Hey there, YoloBox users! Today, we’re diving into a common question we hear a lot. You might ask: Why can’t I add local videos to my YoloBox via an SD card or USB drive? Well, let’s take a closer look and break it down step by step. We’ll get to the bottom of this together. First, let’s explore the basics.
The Issue with Video Filenames
First off, video filenames matter. Some filenames have complex or strange characters. Maybe they’re too long or include unusual symbols. These can confuse your YoloBox. As a result, it might not upload the video.
Tip: Keep filenames short and simple. Use basic letters and numbers. Avoid special characters. This helps your YoloBox recognize the file easily.
Check Your YoloBox Model
Next, consider your YoloBox model. Not all models support the same video resolutions. This affects what you can upload.
- YoloBox Ultra: This model supports videos up to 4K resolution. So you can upload high-quality videos without issues.
- YoloBox Pro and Lower Models: These only support up to 1080p. So, higher resolutions won’t work.
Tip: Always check your video resolution before uploading. And match it to your YoloBox model’s capabilities.
Why isn’t Your SD Card Working with YoloBox?
Often, the issue lies in the card’s format. YoloBox requires SD cards to be formatted in FAT32 for optimal compatibility. If your card isn’t in this format, it simply won’t be recognized.
To fix this, you’ll need to check and reformat your SD card using a computer. For detailed steps on how to do this, head over to our troubleshooting guide: “My SD Card Doesn’t Work” – Troubleshooting SD Cards. By following these simple steps, you’ll get your SD card up and running in no time. So go ahead, give it a try, and happy streaming!
Tips for Successful Uploads
To sum up, here are some key tips to ensure smooth video uploads. First and foremost, shorten your filenames. Opt for simple names without any special characters. This step helps prevent confusion and ensures your YoloBox can easily recognize the file.
Next, match your video resolutions to your YoloBox model. Different models support different resolutions, so it’s crucial to verify that your video resolution is compatible.
Additionally, test first. Before committing to a full upload, try uploading a short video to check compatibility. This quick test can save you time and hassle down the line.
By keeping things simple and following these steps, you’ll avoid common issues and enjoy a seamless experience with your YoloBox. If you encounter any difficulties or have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. You can email us at contact@yololiv.com for assistance.
