Okay, I'll give up with that idea then and stick with posting my reviews and videos together in my Prog Britannia blog.

If you write a blog or a thread on PA where you illustrate your text with videos, it's OK, many people do this. But I guess nobody would understand your plan, because it impossible on PA to "synchronize" reviews and videos. Bad idea and a waste of time in my opinion. |

Ideally, I'd like to have added the YouTube albums at the same time as I wrote the reviews. I now have a backlog of 26 album reviews to add the relevant videos for, as soon as I can figure out how to do it. I wish it was as easy as submitting videos in the forums.

Obviously, I can't keep an eye on all albums you're reviewing.
If you post links (band pages and YouTube videos) I can try to add videos. No more than this. Please keep also in mind that only 3 recently added videos are shown on PA main page, thus makes sense to add no more than 1-2 videos in several days. If you add, for example, 20 videos at once, only the last 3 will be shown on the main page, very few visitors will notice the rest. |

I don't know if it's the same for that page, but on the forum you're supposed to post just the video id (the bit after https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=) between the tube tags, not the whole url.

I wanted to post the videos for every album I've reviewed so far, if the full album videos are available on YouTube.

^ Please post here the links to the band's page and YouTube videos you'd like to add.
Maybe I'll be luckier in adding them.

I tried clicking on "Share" on the YouTube video and then copied and pasted the embed code into the PA box provided, but that's where I keep receiving the message "The website cannot display the page.".

You don't upload them, you just add a link to the video by quoting the video reference.Click on "Insert Movie" and add the reference so it should insert HTML with TUBE HTML tags.

I'm unable to upload any YouTube videos to the main band info part of ProgArchives. Every time I try I get an error message saying "The website cannot display the page"
