Hihi,

I was just wondering, if it is just me OR - whenever I promote a video of @PlayhousePals, it does not show up any bigger than any normal video on the page. Everything else that's under 'Featured *Promoted Video' shows up bigger (when I flip throgh the 'Next Featured Video'... I tried this on Firefox, IE and Chrome, and they ALL show her video as 'normail' size.

Thanks:)

EDIT: The same with lv_hunter 's video:

Yes and it was horrible. The first thing it did was log me out of VideoSift, toss my theme settings right out the window and basically sundered my Chrome browser experience.

I didn't want something to proxy my entire browser session, I wanted something that would handle just the video embed, just like MediaHint does.

Hola is a nuke when I wanted a knife.

Yeah pretty sure it's blocked.

You can use an extension like Hola Better Internet (what I use) if you have Chrome, which selectively proxies you through the US for certain sites like Comedy Central.

This backup works for me. Ill let you swap if you so desire. Also thumbnail made me feel like i got jipped a bit.

-edit-
its a Firefox issue for me. Worked fine in Chrome

I can still see the option - in Chrome and Firefox.

We use the "Hola Unblocker" extension for Firefox or Chrome. It's free, bypasses the region blocking, and doesn't slow down the streaming at all. Been using on U.S. Netflix from Japan for over a month now with no problems.

Haven't seen House of Cards yet though. I'm still working through Breaking Bad which only has released up to season 3 here in Japan.

this bag is more expensive than anything I'd put inside it.

except a laptop, but this seems like a crappy bag to put a laptop in (no padding)

this would be a good bag for Indiana Jones.

I do like that the high price is because it's high quality, unlike many designer bags that you are only paying for the name.

I recommend Chrome bags for something that is more practical. Still expensive ($100-$200), but will last forever. Most local "pro" bicycle shops carry them, if you want to check out in person. And those same shops will usually order a custom one for you at the same price as the website.

Embed validation works fine over here.
Checks it instantly when pasting link or code.

It seems that my votes only count if I am logged in, most of the time anyway. I've tried voting before at different computers without logging in and most of the time it shows the vote as working, but if I open a different browser to the video link (firefox to chrome, for example) it shows that the vote did not register.

I first noticed it when I was on my Nexus 7 and didn't feel like typing in my password, later I noticed the video had not went up in votes. Then I figured it might be because it was on the same router as my computer and it was to prevent people from 'gaming the system' and doing multiple votes for themselves. I then tried it on some of my friend's computers at different times and it was repeated there. It seems to be hit or miss, sometimes the vote counts and verifies in another browser, sometimes it doesn't.

For instance, today I tried to vote on http://videosift.com/video/How-did-the-car-appear without logging in. It showed the upvote in firefox, but in chrome it showed that it still had 9 votes. I logged in and voted and it went to 10, which chrome verified. I don't think it is a time delay either, because as soon as I am logged in and vote it goes through immediately.

Anyway, I thought you might want to investigate it. If someone has already pointed it out or I am just seeing issues that are not there, ignore this.

Starts at 0:00 for me too, on a Mac in Safari and Chrome.

For me I don't even see comments any more when using Chrome. They appear on Firefox though.

Got it submitted now using the VideoSift Bookmarklet in IE. It still reported that the embed was invalid but when I hit submit it worked anyway. Perhaps it would have worked in Chrome if I had just ignored the message too?

I am not able to submit videos with either the youtube address or the embed code.

If I put the address in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEU13R5jt1w it reports "Sorry, that video host is not supported, and you are not yet privileged to submit from unknown hosts. :-("

If I use the embed code: It repots "Embed code appears to be invalid".

I'm normally pretty good at these things but this has me stumped. Other videos I've tried have the same effect, and lullaby_lune's example video simply says the video has already been submitted.

Have tried different computers and Chrome and IE with no joy so far.

*Promote a fantastic video. If you have Chrome, allow pop ups and go to http://www.thewildernessdowntown.com/ to try this out for yourself. It's pretty cool.
