If you launch command prompt and invoke the uploader from there, it won't close. This will allow to at least read the message if there's any.

Thanks for the replies guys. feos, the way i'm using YTU is via a program called Febooti Automation Workshop. Basically, it is a file monitoring program so that when one of my renders finish, it calls YTU to upload the finished file. It has a pretty spiffy variable based interface that allows me to be very specific with it's actions, so I'm able to call YTU just as if i were to open up CMD and start from there. When the action is triggered, CMD opens up just as expected and starts uploading my file. I can provide screenshots of my configuration if you are interested. However, the issue is that sometimes, just randomly, the CMD window just closes and the file does not get uploaded. I realize now that i should probably test to make sure that the behavior is the same if i try to upload via CMD as opposed to Febooti to rule out any possible issues with that software. Let me test and report back after. --- Nach, thanks for the info about the file size limitation. My files are no where near that, so that isn't the issue. In terms of updates, I just like to stay current on software I'm using. Do you guys have a proper "patch notes" site for this software or perhaps a discord server i could join? I guess the only updates i could request is if you could add some sort of watch folder functionality with a configurable delay with a "file in use" check/cooldown and a file type filter (like *.mp4). If you were to add that, then i could drop the febooti step and use YTU only. Of course, these are "nice to have" requests and might extend the scope of the program beyond what it needs to be. These are just my suggestions. Thanks for your time! :-)

So just a follow up... it seems as though ytu is working as intended... i've uploaded a few episodes using my febooti/ytu configuration and everything seems to be working as intended. i think that ytu isn't a fan of windows going idle, but i can use another program called "nosleep" to keep that from occurring. Thanks!
