Videos not playing

Cool your heels Ken.

There is a problem, but, it is not a personal one.

Lets just focus on fixing something that is not working as it has in the past rather than trying to point fingers at members, or messengers, reporting the problem.   OK?

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

10-28-2013... on my videos list, is the last time one of my videos was successfully entered on this site's Videos function.

Each video I have tried to upload since that October, 2013 date has been unplayable, unsuccessful on this site; but, has played satisfactory in other venues.

And, as I noted above, when in edit, I see the code box showing an alpha numeric entry for the successful videos (October 28, 2013 and back) but, in the newer unsuccessful ones there is that https://www entry showing in the code box. 

I don't know what this means, if anything, and apparently soooo... far, no one in this forum knows what this means either.

Oldkayaker:
Aha.....!

 :) :) :) :) :)

I think I solved the problem.

This site, for some unknown reason, was not handling the URL that used to work; but, in Edit, if I change the https://www into just the alpha numeric for the video, then Voila!  the video plays successfully.

 ;D ;D ;D

Still don't know why this extra edit has to be completed now when before it was not necessary.  ??? ???

Hi John,

I had the same problem, so it is not only you. Could be admins having problems with video :-)
Video is just not their thing.
I am not sure if the problem is solved by doing what you did. I tried that two weeks ago too, but it did not work then. When I uploaded my latest video last weekend, it first did not work, but when I tried later, it was accepted with the https suffix. That gave me the idea, something was fixed on the site.

Cheers Fred

Fred Vloo:


Blablabla. There were problems with uploading video's whether you see new video's or not my dear Ken.

Cheers Fred

Fred Vloo:

I do deal with it. It's not a big problem for me. If the site does not accept a video, I'll try the next day and if it still does not work, that's okay with me.
We all know you try your best, no doubt about that.

Fred
