I cant seem to get my video to work on either youtube or vimeo, which means I cant submit it. PLEASE HELP!
Ok..... So FIRST i tried to upload my video to youtube. It was disabled for copyright infringement.
1.) I followed an mfcer's tip and named the video something random and unrelated. I did that TWICE, uploading it a total of three times, and the video was still disabled.
-I do not see how this makes any sense. Mika's management made this mistake of not looking into using youtube as a primary upload source enough. I mean, if the contest is asking people worldwide to make a music video to this song, NO ONE will be able to upload their videos if they have audio from the track imbedded in them, as I know most people do. This creates a major problem for alot of contestants. Team Mika needs to figure this out, and youtube needs to allow us to upload our videos WITH sound for submission.
2.) I then tried vimeo. Once uploaded, the audio was INCREDIBLY out of sync. This is a big problem for alot of people here on mfc, as I have gathered in my research, because alot of us are using lipsyncing which relies on the audio being perfectly insync. For around 4 hours last night, and bright and early this morning, I have been messaging vimeo staff, posting on forums, and tried (unsuccessfully) to download any new encoding thing to fix this problem.
-This is also a problem that needs to be figured out soon by Team Mika of a vimeo staff member, becuase ALOT of people who can not use the youtube route (such as myself, for copyright reasons) are turning to vimeo (which throws off their audio)
Im really sad. I spent 13 hours on this video, and I think its pretty great. I really need to find a way to upload it soon...... or all that hard work wil go to waste. I know I have to be patient, :blush-anim-cl:but I cant stay online waiting for a vimeo staff member or someone with links to youtube to fix this ALL DAY.
I just dont know where to turn. Do you think someone can email team mika? I dont have the adress.
Do any of you have similar problems? Please post if so.
Thanks for listening
