I'm rewatching Spirited Away with English subs I grabbed off opensubtitles.org and I had already been confused by some phantom lines that didn't correspond to any spoken dialogue but this scene made it obvious what was happening- there's extra lines added in places where the characters are facing away from the camera michael-laugh

Either the subtitler was hallucinating or these originate from the dub. I grew up watching a VHS tape chomsky-yes-honey in Japanese with Finnish subtitles and I don't recall this scene having dialogue

    I tried halving this clip's resolution and uploading it as an image. It gave no error and looked like it was uploading but nothing happened even after multiple tries. The site's also been pretty spotty lately with plenty of 504 warnings so I'm not sure if it's due to that

    Edit: Tried again, still no dice. The little hexbear logo spins for a while but nothing happens. When you try to upload a file that's too big it just gives an error

      huh I was able to replicate that yeah with a ~6MB video. comes back with a 400 error and "too many frames". Guess the UI doesn't know how to catch that one. whack. wonder if devs can change that, videos under whatever the filesize limit should be allowed

      yeahhhhh let me see if browser tools shows anything. It was working a few weeks ago. Could be the same/similar issue as the neverending spinner on comments and Toastify popups
