VideoCutTool is a tool to trim, crop, rotate on-the-fly videos in Wikimedia Commons. It is hosted in Wikimedia Toolforge and can be found at https://tools.wmflabs.org/video-cut-tool/

Background

VideoCutTool takes more time to encode the videos, For the larger videos it takes more time, So the connection b/w server-side and client-side is timing out.

Task:

• Learn about VideoCutTool from Commons: VideoCutTool.
• Enable the tool to handle the larger videos, One solution might be re-establishing the client-side connection with the server-side for every x min, debug, examine and fix it!

Any other type of solution to fix this issue is appreciated and accepted :)
