  Just checked your profile Barry, and you appear to have posted a video (jammin) successfully to your blog after you posted your message above. Is it working again now?

  Something you might check.  The other day I was having problems getting a video to work in a post.

  This is a copy of a link from below a video(I know not the correct link to be copying for forum posting)

  https://youtu.be/SQ44aQWnH4I  This link was also showing up in the address bar for some reason, of a video I was trying to post.  So when I copied from the address bar the video would not work.  Granted the first link I used was the share link(didnt work in forum, even after taking the s off), that is when I started checking some of Scott's posts to see what I was doing wrong.

  Finally got the correct link to show in the address bar, copied, posted no problem.  The video works just fine, in fact it won me a sleeve of balls from Sham.  Glad I continued to go to all the trouble to get it posted.

  How that lower link was showing up in the address bar is the question on the month.

  This is using the correct link, just to show I can do this.

  this is just a link I picked out for display purposes

  I guess I should have used the 1 of the naked lady fishing.

  Paul remember popsicles?  Now you know why I was having trouble getting that vid to post.

  And DON'T go there.(just envisioned you sitting there.  Oh Wait, I have a good come back for that.)

  Hi Barry, Sorry Scott, don't mean to step on your toes or confuse things. Something in your description doesn't seem right there Barry, too early in the day for me to work out what though.

  No worries whoosh. You are right though, Barry's right click and copy on the video produces a URL which WGT doesn't like. As you say the right way is to copy from the address bar. Barry has recently posted a new blog video though, so looks like he has it sorted.

    Any help ? 

  I just tried, it worked as normal. I've seen that message in youtube but I can't remember what caused it.

  Sorry I can't help you Paul but I'm sure someone who uploads to youtube a lot will know what's up and how to fix it.

  I have uploaded videos to my youtube channel before . But I can't seem to upload WGT replays . There is no s in http . It just says Your project must include at least one video.  Any help ?

  The fact that you mention 'http' makes me think you're trying to upload a WGT replay link to YouTube, which you cannot do. Have I misunderstood?

  Yeah, replays can't be uploaded directly to youtube. You have to record the replay using 3rd party software then upload that video.

  I used to use oCam but now in Windows 10, if you press the windows button + G the interface for a recorder pops up, I use that to record replays. It's part of the x-box stuff that comes with Win10, works a treat.
