nope, had was to manually gzip the backup, I let the backup run normally, go into the folder where it saves it, when its about to gzip I stoped the app quickly and gzip the backup and was finally able to change host, now im just having issues with uploading videos, even as small as 40MB (yes I know its not optimized but its inconsistent)
