Creator upload
Upload your video
Select a video file, add a title and 16:9 thumbnail, then publish it to HOTESTER. Video files, metadata, and thumbnail previews all come together in one clear submission console.
Three steps
From file to live video
Each stage has one clear task, so you always know what to do next before your video goes live.
Select video media
Choose the video file you want to share. Its format and length are checked before you continue.
Add title and thumbnail
Write a title and description, add tags, and set a 16:9 thumbnail preview that represents your video.
Publish live
Set visibility, then publish. Your video is processed quickly and added to search and browse feeds.
File requirements
Before you upload
Check these technical requirements so your video processes without delay.
Aspect ratio
Use 16:9 widescreen for the best display on desktop and mobile. Thumbnails use the same 16:9 framing.
Recommended resolution
Upload at 1080p or higher for sharp playback. Lower resolutions are accepted but may look softer on larger screens.
Supported containers
Common video containers such as MP4 and MOV are supported. Export with standard H.264 video for the most reliable results.
