Missing YouTube Videos?

Linus · 03-12-2010, 05:08 PM

I know of two thread (That70s and Music Central) where some YouTube videos have gone *poof*. If you are also experiencing this, please let me know. What I'm trying to determine is when this first appeared. We haven't changed anything on the forums in the last two weeks (a mod I wanted to add I couldn't for other reasons).

I'm curious if other threads have been hit by this.

In the meantime, I am investigating this and am hoping to find an answer soon.

The other day I noticed mah Mix Mash thread was missing some.

They seem to have mysteriously returned.

Is it because mah Flash player updated last night?

All of my links from the beginning of my Music Central thread just POOFED away, gone/vanished about four days back? Stories, history and facts of mine there now, but with NO music link or song now to go with the info... (Sorry folks.)

They always posted for me without trouble, and I've replayed them numerous times...

Others saw them and commented on various songs, points and stories - thus "saw them".

Others songs from other people are still there on that thread. Even the YOUTUBE ones... (?) I did see one of Snows gone (not sure if that was YOUTUBE or not now), from the first page I believe, but that was all I noticed. Her following ones were still there as far ahead as I checked...(?)

Now I went and posted another song two days back, the Eagles one there, and it posted fine and IS still there as of last I checked - earlier today. But, where the heck did ALL of my other song links go, while other folks have had theirs stay there? Has anyone else lost ALL of their links there on that thread? I'm just curious...

Big bummer though.

I hope mine magically reappear!!

Thanks Linus for trying to figure this out. Appreciate it.

I just tried updating mine and didn't see any difference.

The thing that puzzles me the most is the fact that the link isn't even present. I have a feeling it's a mod issue, which may mean losing our ability to just post YouTube links and having it "magically" appear but that may be better than losing the context.

Is it only the Youtube videos that are disappearing?

Linus · 03-12-2010, 05:56 PM

Ya. Some are due to, I suspect, to change in copyright but others.. not sure. I wonder if YouTube is clamping down on hotlinking.

My last song of the Eagles - a YOUTUBE is still there from posting yesterday. But, how ALL of mine are gone there on that thread since I began it, while other YOUTUBE ones there are not, is... quite baffling to me.

Once posted I could see them perhaps not "opening" after some time, (and even with a message stated something about copy rights or whatever... but the link would still be there...), however, with mine there are just only blank spaces ? where all of my links were.
