Play icon in submitted videos' titles on VS.
I am starting to see a pattern recently. For examples: http://videosift.com/video/ndash-amanda-boyle-skirt and http://videosift.com/video/ndash-Epic-Chick-Fight-Live-Action-Family-Guy-Chicken-Fight ...
I know it is for YouTube to show what is currently playing (see http://news.slashdot.org/story/13/08/04/1944221/youtube-adds-play-icon-to-page-titles-to-show-which-tabs-are-making-noise ), but VS should not include them. How are they coming up anyways? I never see those in my YouTube submissions.
Thank you in advance.

oritteropoEvery yt vid I submit has the > to be deleted before submitting... obviously not everybody does this.
lucky760I've been noticing it also and it's a bit annoying, if I'm being honest.
antMaybe VS should automatically remove this during submissions. I don't mind seeing if I am watching A YouTube video ON YouTube.com.

chingaleraI always use the old embed code if that makes any difference at all...
antI use both embed codes. I wonder if it is from the bookmarklets.

oritteropoYep, got it in one.

lucky760Been watching vids at YouTube.com recently and see that they show the play arrow in the browser title while the video is being played back, and I believe the bookmarklet is using that title to populate the field on the submit form.
We'll have to look into auto-stripping that, as @ant suggested.
antSounds good.
