How to upload a video to Facebook?

I'm using Titanium SDK 3.1.1 and deploying for both iOS and Android. I tried the answer in this post, I modified it to use it with the new Facebook Module authorizing methods like this:

var fb = require('facebook');
    fb.appid = 186607908179444;
    fb.permissions = ['publish_stream'];
    // Permissions your app needs
    fb.forceDialogAuth = false;
The code I use to make the request was this:
var url = "https://graph-video.facebook.com/me/videos";
 
        var xhr_video = Titanium.Network.createHTTPClient();
 
        xhr_video.open('POST', url);
 
        xhr_video.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'multipart/form-data');
 
        xhr_video.onload = function(e) {
 
            alert("Video Has Been Successfully Posted to Your Timeline");
 
        };
        xhr_video.onerror = function(e) {
            alert(e);
            xhr_video.abort();
 
        };
        var tmp = Ti.Filesystem.getFile(Ti.Filesystem.tempDirectory, ('baby_temp.mp4'));
        var data = {
            video : tmp.read(),
            access_token : fb.accessToken
        };
        xhr_video.send(data);
but I got a Connection to https://graph-video.facebook.com refused. I also tried to use the Facebook Module's requestWithGraphPath method like this:
fb.requestWithGraphPath('me/videos', args, "POST", function(e) {
            if (e.success) {
                Ti.API.info('media post is successful');
 
            } else {
                Ti.API.info('something went off while sharing media');
                activatedFacebookSharing = false;
 
                if (e.error) {
 
                    alert(e.error);
                } else {
                    alert("Unkown result");
                }
            }
        });
But this returned me a Sorry, the video file you selected is in a format that we don't support error.

What's the proper way to upload a video to Facebook using Titanium SDK 3.1 and later?
