Musk’s announcement is positive news for the platform, which has been struggling to attract serious content creators, but there’s one big caveat. You need to be a Twitter Blue subscriber in order to upload longer videos of up to 2 hours in length. Right now, Twitter Blue costs $8 per month when paid via the web, and $11 per month when the payment is processed via the iOS app.
Twitter Blue Verified subscribers can now upload 2 hour videos (8GB)!

If you have a 10-hour documentary in mind, you will have to trim it into five parts. Twitter currently has no restriction on the number of 2-hour videos that you can upload and share on the platform. Another restriction is that 2-hour video uploads are currently limited to iOS and the website. If you rocking an Android phone, you can upload videos of up to 10 minute run time, and that too, after paying the Twitter Blue tax.
Twitter says you might also run into some video format issues prior to the upload, so there’s that. The company’s developer document recommends that the video coded should be H264, while the frame rate value could either be 30fps or 60fps. The ideal resolution is HD (1280 x 720 pixels), but it can be both vertical as well as horizontal. However, keep in mind that the aspect ratio must be 3:1, or its inverse.
