Why is my video suddenly 1 second long?
-
I bought the upgrade so that I would be able to post video material on my blog, so far I’ve uploaded one video that is supposed to be around 3-4 minutes long but after uploading it and trying to play it all I get is a 1 second window with nothing but darkness before the WordPress logo pops up.
What might be causing this?

I don’t see any uploaded videos on your account.
Can you please tell us which post you’re referring to?

I never uploaded any videos on my blog because the one I actually did upload and publish on my blog (briefly) was only (as stated before) a second long.
I’ve demanded my money back now however since I can’t deal with this right now. But I will most likely use it later on this year, so I’d still love to know what the issue might be.
When I had uploaded the video (took about an hour) it was first processed for a little bit and then I could see the screenshot taken from the middle of the vid. But when I pressed “play” all that showed was a black screen and later the WordPress logotype.

No problem, I understand.
If you ever try again and run into the same problem, please leave the video in your media library so we can investigate the problem.

I have a question, if there is copyright material in the video such as a song for example. Is there a chance that the video with that song might be disabled somehow?
Since I work a lot with gaming material such as trailers, gameplay videos and such when creating my videos in Sony Vegas. To these I often use material that might be copyrighted (mostly songs).
The group I used for this one is an Indie one, so it shouldn’t have been a problem unless they got signed between me making the video and posting it here.

It won’t be automatically disabled, but it is a violation of copyright, which is also a violation of our terms of service and grounds for suspension.

Really? Wow… that’s kinda funny since when I bought the Video Upgrade it didn’t say anything, anywhere about not uploading copyrighted material.
If there is such information when one upgrades the account I sure didn’t see it, I wouldn’t have bought it if I had since I know what type of videos I work with.
Anyway, thanks for the information, I´ll just skip the Video Upgrade fully then since I don’t feel like being suspended.

It’s all present in the terms of service that you agreed to before opening your account here: http://en.wordpress.com/tos/
You might want to review the rest, just in case.
