Topic: Can't Add Youtube video to Band profilePosted By: jplanet
Subject: Can't Add Youtube video to Band profile
Date Posted: April 02 2013 at 00:21
I tried adding a new video to the Shadow Circus page - it appears that the search function is broken that allows you to select which video to add - it simply populates the same list of unrelated videos no matter what the search term is, and the link to Page 2 of these generic results leads to blank results...

I tried tricking the form into adding this video by editing the video ID fields using Firebig. It successfully posted it! But the video doesn't work, so, alas, a failure: http://www.progarchives.com/video.asp?id=5357" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/video.asp?id=5357
Any chance of getting some help with this? Admins?

I've found this video on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sjS1w3p2OA" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sjS1w3p2OA , but can't add it because the search function does not see it.

The "Search and add videos" feature on the artists pages no longer works for me, either.

Can anybody with Chrome find correct films with the current search video tool?
I wonder if there is some change in Google & YouTube end causing the issue.
Not relevant to the issue itself, but if the current systems should not work anymore, I would propose building system where users could propose videos for adding, and admins would add those which are official - this proposition meaning to enhance both video quality and selecting official uploads, lessening the Sisyphus task of collabs currently cleaning videos from pages which were often dead allready on arrival. Enlargening the embeding capability to vimeo might be worthwhile investment also.

I don't think Admins would be happy to get new badly paid job.
And who can say what's official and what's not. Is selection from officially released DVD official? Is old TV footage never released on VHS/DVD unofficial?
No need to make things more complex than they are, let's better KISS (keep it simple and stoopid).
Obviously, Search videos tool needs to be fixed. Thath's all IMHO.

I agree any unneccesary job sjould be avoided, but I would raise question, which causes more work, constant cleaning of dead videos or controlled uploading? Don't mean I know the exact answer to this.
You can see information about the YouTube posters in their profile, and often conclude is it official or not. F.Ex. this Moody Blues video is uploaded by the Eagle Vision who published the Isle of Wight DVD: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEWbmt0LrgQ" rel="nofollow - www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEWbmt0LrgQ

^ There are lots of interesting archive videos (from old TV translations for example). Maybe they are not official, probably artists don't know these videos exist or don't have rights for the them etc, but nobody complains. Even more, clever artists use such videos when necessary.
Using only only official promos means to reject lots of valuable material.

I certainly agree with you on this aspect - the quality or status of a video upload is not most easy to define. But I personally think there are detectable differences http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76Pk0vuc-Ow" rel="nofollow - for example with this archive clip and youtube "films" showing album cover over cd rip, waiting it's most certain removal removal.
This issue goes to the debate of interest for video quality (earlier tried http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=56239" rel="nofollow - here ). From my part, please continue with the solving of the video embend problem (I would certainly discuss this topic further, if it should be relevant).
Have great weekend you all!

I tried copying the tool bar but it didn't post but my tool bar does not look like the one you posted. It's rearranged differently and is missing many of the post options including the 'ladder link' to post vids and film clips.
It says basic or prompt mode and doesn't have all the tools listed like it did before...but I have all the preferneces set right as far as know....how do I fix this?
How did you copy and paste that tool bar and message image..?

This is a well-known problem with a good many users - myself included. Older members of the site can use this facility - usually without a hitch - whether they are collaborators or not, but the majority of those joining in the last three years or so always get this error message when using the 'Search and add more videos' link on an artist page. It has never worked for me - even during the 6 months last year when I was a collaborator in the Crossover team. Andy once advised me that it was something to do with my user number - I guess anyone having a user number above a certain threshold (ie those joining the site more recently) are excluded from using the facility, and it will only be fixed when M@X upgrades the software, and since there is probably more chance of Taylor Swift being added to Symphonic Prog than that happening, I wouldn't hold my breath!!!
Posted By: Razalduria
Date Posted: September 19 2014 at 13:53
Well, since NotAProgHead added my wishes (thanks again mate!), I'm a happy camper...
I'm
more concerned about adding mp3, as AndyWebb is not reading my PMs over
here (for about a month), and he (I was told) is the one to message in
that case. I got a package of mp3 directly from the band, approved and
all...
Posted By: yam yam
Date Posted: September 19 2014 at 15:19
Andy is one of our admins (one of only four at the moment) - and he has a huge amount of work to do on here. Adding mp3 links to an artist's page will not be amongst his highest priorities at the moment to be perfectly honest, and there was also a problem with the FTP server which only got ironed out earlier this year, leaving quite a large backlog of mp3 additions for him to work through. He will get to your messages eventually, I'm sure, but I think you also need to consider that you have made just 5 posts in almost a year since joining the site (four of them being in this thread in the last three days) - plus a few 'ratings only' of a dozen or so albums - and you don't give any information whatsoever about yourself in your 'Members profile'.

A little secret - I always recommend to add no more than 2-3 videos at once, because only the latest 3 are shown on PA main page. If you add more no one will notice them.
If you agree, please remind me several days later to add the rest.
If you don't, please post here, I'll add remaining videos.
