Mixdrop alternative for uploading large videos

Updated: October 28, 2026

Mixdrop is widely used to upload and share video files. If you work with heavy files (long recordings, your own films, full classes), on Dembed you can upload files up to 20 GB straight from your browser.

Why look for a Mixdrop alternative?

With big files, the worst thing is an hours-long upload failing at 90%. That’s why many people look for a Mixdrop alternative with more robust uploads.

On Dembed files go straight to storage, in parts, with real-time progress. You can upload several at once and keep using the dashboard meanwhile.

Built for heavy files

  • Up to 20 GB per file, free.
  • Direct upload to storage: faster, with no middle servers.
  • Multipart upload for the largest files.
  • Several uploads at once, with progress and cancel.
  • Per-quality downloads if you want your audience to keep the file.

Mixdrop or Dembed: what to compare before choosing

Before moving your library, compare these points on Mixdrop and any other option. They’re the ones that most affect your audience and your earnings:

  • How much they pay and how it’s calculated: Dembed shares the real ad revenue of each month with you based on your audience’s country, with a per-country breakdown in your dashboard.
  • When you start earning: on Dembed every video earns from day one, with no subscriber or watch-hour minimums.
  • Payout methods and minimum: Dembed pays via PayPal, USDT (TRC20), Payoneer or bank transfer from 25 USD.
  • Viewer experience: ads in the player, no recommendations from other channels; viewers who don’t want ads can go Premium (part of that subscription also goes to creators).
  • Max size and uploading: files up to 20 GB uploaded straight to storage, resumable, several at a time.
  • Your brand: player color, logo or watermark with a link, subtitles and a “Skip intro” button.
  • Clear rules: Dembed doesn’t allow copyright-infringing content and has a report button on every video, which protects honest creators and advertisers.

How to move your videos from Mixdrop to Dembed

Tip: if your files are MKV, upload them as MP4 (H.264 + AAC) so they have sound in every browser. Our guide to converting MKV to MP4 explains how.

  1. 1Create your free Dembed account and confirm your email.
  2. 2Download your original files from Mixdrop (or use the copies on your computer).
  3. 3Drag them into the Dembed dashboard: upload several at once and organize them in folders. Thumbnails and duration are generated automatically.
  4. 4Customize the player once (color, logo, subtitles) and it applies to all your videos.
  5. 5Replace the old links or iframes with Dembed’s on your site, blog or socials. From then on every monetized view adds to your balance.
