"The connection was reset" error Nanonymous No.353 [D][U][F][S][L][A][C]

Sometimes I get a connection reset error. So far it only happened when I tried uploading videos but I bet it has more to do with the size of the file, not the type.

Also, why isn't the file size and original file name displayed? I'm not enabling JavaScript so I'm not seeing thumbnails either.

>file size
The file size isn't displayed because the feature isn't implemented yet. If you think this is important I can implement it tomorrow when I have time.
>original file name
Original filenames are not stored because they could be used to track users.
>I'm not enabling JavaScript
There is no JavaScript on this website. Video thumbnail generation depends on whether your browser does it for you. Generating thumbnails server-side causes security issues due to the dubious security characteristics of ffmpeg (the program which would be used to generate the thumbnails).
I can, however, make a placeholder image (like the catalog thumbnail) which would be displayed in case your browser didn't automatically generate the thumbnail for you.

By the way, what size files are you uploading? The hardlimit on file size is 16MB but some people cannot reach that limit because Tor connections are slower than normal internet.

>If you think this is important I can implement it tomorrow when I have time.
I think it's important and shouldn't be too difficult anyway, so please do.
>Original filenames are not stored because they could be used to track users.
I'm OK with this.
>Video thumbnail generation depends on whether your browser does it for you.
Tor Browser doesn't.
>By the way, what size files are you uploading?
Under 16 MB.

I'm also getting connection timeouts when trying to upload even relatively small files (~4MiB). I've successfully uploaded even larger files over the onion service at endchan in the past. Is there a thttpd or CGI setting that could be changed to accommodate a higher timeout limit, or is it definitely a client-side issue?
