WMV File not Uploading

I have tried several times to upload a WMV file which was recorded by a Polycom RSS4000.  The WMV file continually fails but a MP4 file has had better success.

The file format is a 1280x720p 30fps format recorded at 1280kbps. Audio is 64kbps 48Khz stereo. File size 426MB.  Date of upload was 8/9 and 8/10 2017.  file name includes .wmv and is less than 26 characters with alpha only text.

Audio Codec:  Windows Media Audio V8

Video codec is not showing in the Windows Media Player properties but the file format is a .wmv file and plays back fine in Windows Media Player.  Are there limitations to older WMV codecs?

    I am also having this problem.  When I upload the video it errors out during processing. "There was an unexpected failure while processing the file. Please delete and try again later".  I have tried with several different videos and used Chrome and IE with the same result.
