MFJ,
When I have several video files to upload using Shopmetrics sites, I let the scheduler(s) know that deadlines may need to be extended due to slow uploads.
Then, while video is uploading, I write narratives and save then in word.
Also, I always turn off the auto "sleep" and similar functions when uploading video.
If you are having this issue with Servimer videos, , they will be very accommodating. Even the president of that MSC has similar issues because he has very slow Internet speeds at home. As for other MSCs that use video and Shopmetrics, YMMV
And, a random tip for all video road warriors:
When at a hotel and uploading video, be sure to check that the electrical outlet that you use for your computer is not controlled by a wall switch. I knew that mine was, and left for the day to do more shops. The housekeeper, of course, turned off that light switch. 14 hours of queued up video failed. (But, it was such a charming, old, ocean-side hotel!)
