Gopro people - please help!

[Mike R]

I've recently started using my Gopro for videos instead of my Flip and am having problems uploading the clips on to YouTube. With my Flip, all you do is down load it from the camera straight to the computer and from there you can just upload it directly to YouTube.

I've tried doing the same to the Gopro vids and it keeps coming up with an error message (after spending 8 hours uploading each time). I have tried saving it as both an AVI and an MOV file and it makes no difference, I get the same error message each time (that it has failed to upload due to being the incorrect format). It is only a 9 minute video and has been run through the Gopro software to "invert" it and save it in "medium", which makes it 3.3GB.

So what am I doing wrong / what to I need to do to be able to upload it?

Please help LOL!
