Ahhh yes. That's the problem. You're right though- the message is confusing.

In reply to this comment by Psychologic:
The embed that I pasted to the message was the same one I pasted to the submit form. Longde suggested that my "rank" may not be high enough to submit it. I had the same issue trying to submit the PeeWee iPad video, but it worked fine for him.

If it is a permission issue then I would rather the submit form say "you do not have permission to post this" rather than "the embed appears to be invalid". I spent over an hour trying to figure out what was wrong with that PeeWee iPad embed yesterday.

I just tried it and it worked fine for me:

Make sure that you've got a complete copy of the embed- if it's still not working for you, we'll escalate to Lucky.

Cheers

Hey, I'm trying to submit a video but it keeps telling me that the embed is invalid. It works fine in comments, but the submit form won't accept it. The same thing happened with the PeeWee iPad video yesterday. =(

Yea, that's a possibility. Us lowbies might do something dangerous with certain videos... like submit more of them. =X

Oh well, feel free to submit it yourself since apparently I'm not allowed. =)

I think that once you reach higher levels (e.g., bronze, silver, gold), you are able post post more types of embeds. I would ask one of the senior members, though.

In reply to this comment by Psychologic:
Hey, how did you get the PeeWee video to embed? I never could get figure out why it told me that the embed was invalid.

I get the same error on another video I've been trying to embed (see below)... any suggestions?

(edit: wtf, why does it work here but won't let me submit it??)

I hadn't heard that Pee-Wee was making a comeback, but I just saw him on Conan a couple of weeks ago, and now he's doing a sketch using some of the Pee-Wee's Playhouse set. Is Ruebens planning to bring Pee-Wee back to TV? It's surprising to see that the character doesn't look to have aged as much as Ruebens has.


He has a live show in Nokia theater in L.A.: http://www.peewee.com/new/show.html

For a breakdown of this clip.

Haha, yeah, that's where I found the vid, and I felt it'd be unfair to deprive the Sift of Peewee's super-alpha genius.

its blocked for me too, but i watched the youtube clip.

good god i love peewee.
