If the upload doesn't finish the user needs to redo it.

You got me confused here. If the upload never finished, there is nothing you can do to fix this.
That being said, resumable file uploading is the next thing we'll tackle.
- tstrong 16y ago> It seems one advantage of the two step process would be the ability to try the process again I should have been more specific: consider the special case that the encoder on your side encounters a random error whereas just a "plain" upload to the client platform would have finished, so precluding any network transmission errors. Although, with resumable uploading and a simple go-between service on the client platform between the user and your platform all manner of fanciness could be achieved, I think. Thanks for quick response!
