Youtube file size limit?

Hello all i see on the youtube uploading guide page is formats included and how to go over 15 min by verify account

it does not say anywhere about the gb size limit of a file
i have a 2.5 gb file that on my slow net will take from 9pm till 7am to upload and i would be devesatated if upon completing it would say `sorry exceeded file limit`

Can any of you good people tell me the current 2014 file size limit

Thanks

Anyone?

I believe that it is 2GB unless otherwise stated, or your account receives a special dispensation from the management of Youtube itself.

Have you tried googling ?

IT SAYS

Once you’ve increased your limit, make sure that you’re using an up-to-date version of your browser so that you can upload files greater than 20 GB.

There are some limits on the dimension of the videos you can upload to YouTube. The maximum file size is 128 GB and the maximum duration is 11 hours.

is this in date?
i just want to be sure before i leave it uploading all night

Well, I have no idea.

The longest video I have ever uploaded was about seven minutes long, and it was not even shot in HD, so it never entered my head really.

If you were able to find out about the 128GB limit and 11hr duration limit, then you are obviously better informed than I am anyway. Perhaps it might be wise to actually attempt to contact the goblins that man the controls at YouTube HQ, and ask them?

Just try it? The worst that can happen is it is declined.

Then don't try it and get better internet?

Just curious. Have you thought of dividing it into like...quarters and upload each as "pt 1", "pt 2" etc etc? If youre concerned about it, why are you trying to jam it all in one piece? In parts would be way more simple and easy if time and size is/are your issue(s).
