    Yes it’s been resolved. First going into IOS settings App on iPad and scrolling down to Dropbox and checking in there that Photos and read and write are enabled( they were). And that background app refresh is on ( it was ).

    next opening Dropbox app and Accounts (bottom menu), scrolling down  to camera upload and checking its on( it wasn’t) then checking videos option is on after enabling camera upload( it wasn’t).

    after this going to photos and seeing video is slowly uploading!

    many thanks for the help and support!
