yep. No annoying popups, and a better result.

But it's more annoying to code

Do you have the latest Flash? I don't know if Ubuntu comes with the one from Adobe. Old Flash had problems. I have no problems with Debian and IceApe. I do know that I need to enable popup if I want to launch the video site that carries the video (e.g., YouTube).

Looks like its got the VR key tags on the sides, making it like the Popup VR books, of enhanced reality in the vid on here recently. My guess is a VR headset could render the cube side images, and you hold and manipulate the cube.

There is a working version here: http://www.krazyshow.com/media/playvideo.aspx?f=flash7&cid=2E91AD4C1C354F5A929C48326786B073&v=mostviewed

If a diamond wants to fix this.

definitely fake, but definitely well done:

I tried to vote for this video but a popup said "Sorry, new members cannot vote for other new members"

In reply to your comment:
“unbelievable the lack of interest.....”

interesting, I never got that. (maybe it's because of all my ad/flash/popup blockers)
thanks for pointing that out bl, I'll swap it for another source..

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I like the editorilizing captions at the end. That gives me an idea to combine PopUp Video with Fox News. That would make an entertaining show.

I clicked the Quicktime version and did a View Source on the popup window.. the URL for the media is

http://www.pbs.org/media/wnet/moyers/journal/btw/BTW_part1_480.mov?v1st=80E0207581A45597

It appears to be split into multiple pieces..looks like it has 5 parts. About 180MB all together for the QT files.

Installer bundlesthe ask.com toolbar. I declined to install it.

Seems to work... but doesn't always seem to kick in. Haven't restarted since installing; perhaps that's why.

Popup window comes up when it accelarates. Annoying. Edit prefs to Turn "Show Tray Messages" off.

No techie details, nothing quantifiable as to performance increase, number of connections it's using.

When using EVDO card, loads quickly, then quits loading partway through the video.

Not worth the complexity. So what if 1% of your votes are accidental. It all averages out (though a downvote early on in the queue is a death sentence).

Can you change vote on digg? or slashdot? etc. etc.

My only suggestion might be to add AJAX to downvote button ONLY that brings up a confirmation popup that mentions "only downvote in these situations, Are you Sure?"

The problem is too few video being shown on the front page. I have always disliked the fact that you can only see a small amount of videos on the FP. I would really like to see a thumbnail type of system where we can see essentially the same info such as title name, number of votes, tags, etc, but only thumbnails of the screenshot then once clicked or on a mouseover you get a lightbox or ajax style popup/popover to play the video in much like the way the login box works.

To me this would give us more videos to view on the front page and reduce the need to have more votes to escape the queue. You could also use the same format for the queue so we can see more videos at one shot.

I would love to see about 25 to 50 vids on the front page to sift through.

I love shows like this, where the host has a perfectly fine command of the English language except when it comes to common idioms. Like "cooked water" or "let the white sausage ... sleep ... for 8 minutes". It makes you think of what you would do in the same situation when speaking a non-native tongue!

I like the popups explaining the German terms. Just watching this clip made me hungry!

Hmm.. One thing try turning on http referrer if it is off, delete cookie, and re-login.
Another thing, do you know how to pull up the javscript console? Might be error msg in there.
Third, you can open the page about:config and search for javascript make sure it is still enabled.
Do you have a hosts file that blocks all the popup and advert IP addresses. It's possible that some ad needs to load before the javascript part.
I went through this no edit thing for awhile also.
Question, does click on favorite do it in AJAX, ie. loads in page while watching a video, or like refereshed page instead.

another fine use for duct tape!!!
