A video delivery system that is integrated into the Community. No need to search through forum boards or posts looking for a video, this will be the central place for them now.
This system has a YOUTUBE VIDEO UPLOADER, so ideally this will be the preferred way to add your videos to our site....add them to YouTube, and then link to it through HSGTube. Other video site links that are supported are:
YouTube, Dailymotion, MetaCafe, Veoh, Google Video, MySpace, MyVideo, Liveleak, Clipfish, Sevenload, Livevideo, Vidmax, Pokertube, Revver, Vimeo, Megavideo, Blip.tv, Funnyordie.com, Imeem.com, Photobucket, Travelistic, Viddler
The system also allows uploading of videos, however they are limited 2MB in size and restricted to the following file formats:
*.avi; *.wmv; *.3gp; *.flv; *.mpg;
There are currently 2 categories for the videos (OT2 and OOB). Let me know if you feel there should be additional categories.
Even after you submit a video, it will not display until it has been viewed and approved by myself, or other designated staff members. ALL VIDEOS MUST BE HSG RELATED, no exceptions. If you have off topic videos, continue to embed or link those in topics/threads like you do now. I want this new feature (HSGTUBE) to be strictly for HSG threads.
Similar to YouTube, there is an area to post comments for each video and to rate the video.
I've started the video library out with simply 2 HSG trailers. I look forward to seeing you show off some of your goodies you've got!
As always, i'm trying out new stuff just to see how its received by everyone, so let me know your thoughts!
Best Regards,
Morph.
