hypervalent_iodine Posted March 12, 2012 Author Posted March 12, 2012 Me neither. You could always ask the Cap'n if you needed to.
Joatmon Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Thank you for your help, not at all sure what's happening! I did wonder if there was some sort of time or number of posts limit before this feature was enabled? Not been a member long. The only thing in common with all my attempts is that I google "youtube performer (e. Kinks)", select a video, right click to copy video URL, return to the forum and from there I have tried every which way without much success. Unfortunately I'm on someone elses computer and have to give it back. Will return when I can - thanks again. Thanks, Phi for All is contacting Administrators. He thinks there may be some sort of a bug. But why only me and on two separate computers. Rhetorical question - don't answer - thanks for trying.

Appolinaria Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Never worked for me, either. I just double post the link and the video shows up the second time. Or it just works the first time. ^^^^ Hah.

imatfaal Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Joatmon - glad to see that homo sapiens triumphed over a plastic box of chips with added juice! Next task - learn latex; and that isn't a suggestion to go to the seedier shops in the wrong part of town [math] latex=\frac{nice\, fractions}{with\, tops\, and\, bottoms} + \sum{proper\, summation} + more^{lots}[/math]

My problem was that youtube adds a lot of gunk which needed stripping out. What's wrong with the seedier shops in the wrong part of town? Trying to think where I have posted fractions recently.

Joatmon Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 This is really a test to see if I can shorten the URL using edit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNNYFdklVJI Found I can shorten it without using edit - Up to now I've used a word processor and recopied! It's easy when you know how!
Joatmon Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Another experiment. This time I'll post the long URL and if it doesn't load I shall shorten it using "edit" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aLOuvRT9wA Didn't work - try again slightly differently Seems edit works (at least sometimes!)

Moontanman Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 Does anyone have any idea why you tube videos play better when I access them through SFN?
Moontanman Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 Better, how? Look? Sound? Smoothness of stream? Smoothness of stream, quite a big difference too...
iNow Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Try lowering the quality / definition when on the youtube site. I suspect when we embed them here at SFN there is a ceiling on the HD quality... maybe around 360. If you are trying for higher quality on Youtube site and your internet connection cannot handle that, it could be what's causing the difference for you. Just guessing, though. I would try manually lowering the definition/quality on the videos you watch on youtube itself and see if that changes anything.

Sometimes it helps most of the time it doesn't. Most of it has to do with my 10 yo computer I am sure.
