What do I need to do to Shadowplay videos to allow youtube to import them?

Been struggling with this for well over a year, sometimes I can import a gameplay video ripped via Nivida Shadowplay (they are always at source res and 60fps), but most the time I cannot.

Used to have success by putting them through Handbrake and setting them to fixed frame rate but now even that doesn't seem to work. I have mostly 4k footage, tried down sizing to 1080p - still can't import them. I've uploaded 4k before, I know it can be done. Bizarrely this video imported fine:

Exact same thing happened to me a few weeks ago, the only solution I found was to switch to chrome. Since then I haven't had this problem :) Sorry for the late reply btw.

Wow, that's all it was!

Thanks so much, as if I didn't think of that myself, I not long switched from Chrome to Firefox, explains it all.
