I would like to upload the lecture series by David Harvey on Carl Marx's Capital. It's been publushed under a CC-BY licence on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/readingcapital/videos?view=0&sort=dd&flow=list&live_view=500 I've tried uploading the first class using chuncked uploading in the UploadWizard, but that one got stuck saying the file was uploaded before and was deleted. A search for a related DR didn't turn up anything so I think this is an error related to the large filezise (247 MB). There is no doubt in my mind that the free license is genuine and that there wouldn't have been a reason for deletion. It's also not very likely that somebody has tried to do this before since uploading video to Commons is such a headache.
Tentatively assigning this to hoo, who's been closing a lot of similar bugs lately.
Please give us direct download links for each of the videos (you can download them using youtube-dl or a similar tool). You also need to provide us with text for the descriptions of the videos (that has to include the license of the content etc.). At best you put this all into a single archive.

Vera: That is unfortunately not a direct download link, instead it goes to some webpage with a "Download" button on it. Any chance to provide a direct download link?
