I had this issue once. After 3 hrs of encoding the 3speak website showed encoding failed and I lost my entire post that day. Now I usually back up my post into ecency as a draft before publishing it into 3speak.

Tips for @threespeak for faster encoding - Use CBR encoding instead of VBR.

Constant bitrates are easy to encode compared to Variable bitrates. In Variable bitrates, the encoding process has to do two steps (analysing the footage and encoding the footage resulting in too much time for the encoding process). Variable bitrates produce lower file sizes compared to CBR but I would prefer a constant bitrate throughout the footage.

I have not experienced such a thing so far. I mean the encoding failed error message. My first upload is lost (it still says "encoding").

My second upload has been successfully encoded. I did not saved the text, so I had to wrote the post again.

It is indeed a good idea to make a backup of the text before posting.

Good luck and all the best.
