> Every time I upload a lecture video to YouTube, it goes back-and-forth from "0% processed" and "100% processed", repeatedly, until it is actually done. I've never seen it say any other number.

I’m uploading a couple of 50–100m videos each week, and a lot of the time it stops off briefly at 95%, 99% or both before reaching 100%. (Also, “100% processed” comes before “finished processing” or “SD processed, processing HD”.) I’ve never seen it go back down, only ever upwards.

(Huh, today in uploading a video I glanced at it after a while, and: 83%… 84%… 85%… 86%… meaningful percentages and time estimates. Maybe they’ve fixed this, or at least improved it?)
