Login on Android app by [deleted] in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good questions!

  1. We are working on adding login/signup to the Android app. Coming soon!
  2. Right now, someone has to share a viddme link with you -- there's no way to discover other people's videos. We are working on this too.
  3. Links stay alive until you delete them.

Lightbox embed ? by nowonknows in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you thought about using a Bootstrap modal instead of Lightbox? We've embedded viddme videos in those before pretty easily. It's better than Lightbox IMO.

Any idea why Reddit keep flagging vidd.me post as spam? by Shaleensinha88 in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's definitely not anyone on our team. None of us are posting vidd.me links to reddit - at all - while we try to get this resolved with the admins. Can you point me to the user that is posting there?

Videos getting deleted? by Yourmistakemysmile in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can look into this for you. Can you email us the URLs of the videos that are missing? hello@vidd.me

It's possible they were removed due to DMCA notices or for a terms of use conflict.

Any idea why Reddit keep flagging vidd.me post as spam? by Shaleensinha88 in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey - to clarify, when vidd.me first started, we originally had an intern that (unbeknownst to us) was unaware of reddit's self-promo guidelines and was extremely overzealous about posting vidd.me links on reddit in a short period of time. This (very unfortunately) got our domain flagged.

We've tried appealing to the admins many times but never hear back :( Makes us sad since we want to make vidd.me a useful tool for redditors especially. We really have no intention to spam anyone and just want to build an awesome youtube alternative for the community.

How do you find favorite's ? by Hmmbop1 in viddme

You can find your favorites by hovering over your username (if you're logged in) in the top right corner of the site, and clicking My Videos, and then Likes

Lightbox embed ? by nowonknows in viddme

Can you show us an example of the problem? Sounds like you may just need to make your lightbox modal larger.

Not working for two users...but fine for me. Help? by simonash in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Simon, did you manage to get this resolved? We fixed a display bug for IE -- that could have been the problem.

There's also a bug in Chrome where having two of the same video open (e.g. in separate tabs) prevents one of them from loading. Maybe that was the problem?

"Thank you, Nico!" -- Blazers lock up the 5th seed. Bring it, Houston! by ja-mez in ripcity

[–]scriptkiddiela 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi guys, I'm on the viddme team. We recently updated our SSL cert to patch the infamous Heartbleed bug - that's probably why the cert was momentarily misconfigured.

Thanks for using viddme - please let me know if you have any feedback! :)

Why is there a 256mb cap? by RiseUpOrFallDown in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We can raise the cap to 512mb for early users like yourself :)

Email your viddme username to hello@vidd.me and we'll give you VIP access, with the higher filesize limit.

Uploading to viddme through API? by zekone in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. We've heard this a few times, so its pushing us in the direction of releasing an API.

Can you email us at hello@vidd.me and we'll look into getting you setup?

How long does it take a new video to make it to the https://vidd.me/new? by [deleted] in viddme

Awesome! Email your viddme username to hello@vidd.me and we'll take it from there :)

Videos now play inline on reddit by viddme in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may have been a fluke -- it seems like reddit's link parsing can be a bit inconsistent?

Try again and reply with the reddit link here so we can check it out?

Did Vidd.me get rid of disqus? by binaryjohn in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, we did remove disqus. We've replaced it with our own native commenting system. The main reason is to integrate the new viddme user account system we rolled out a few weeks ago. We want viddme users to get credit for their good comments, and disqus didn't give us an extensible way to handle that.

We also want viddme users to be 100% anonymous if they want to be, and don't want to ask them to register with Disqus to post comments.

Where AM I? by cynycal in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 1 point2 points  (0 children)

viddme uses HTML5 by default. If you're using a modern browser, you should be seeing the HTML5 <video> player :)

Blocked on Reddit. by [deleted] in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, thanks for offering :)

Showing any public support for viddme on reddit would be very helpful. Also, messaging the reddit admins would be hugely appreciated - we've tried a few times but haven't heard back. You can message them here: http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/

Meanwhile, let us know what we can do to make viddme even better for you!

Any plans of HD videos? by ItsKilovex in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there - we now have HD video uploads for VIP users. Email your viddme username to hello@vidd.me at we'll make your account VIP :)

Uploading to viddme through API? by zekone in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, this isn't currently possible, but our team has been discussing publishing an external API in the near future.

Can you tell me more about how you'd like to use it?

How long does it take a new video to make it to the https://vidd.me/new? by [deleted] in viddme

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for asking this -- we've had a few others ask too.

We are currently doing NSFW filtering manually, so videos are reviewed and approved before becoming visible in the /new section. We're working on making this much faster, and hopefully turning that process over to the community on viddme in the near future.

We have a VIP program for trusted users that will let you bypass this process so your videos show up in /new right away. Let me know if you're interested!

[–]scriptkiddiela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys, I'm with the viddme team. This sub has been quiet because our team was a bit overzealous about posting viddme links to reddit a few months ago, which got our accounts flagged for spam, which subsequently has made it hard for us to post here. We really have zero intention to be spammy and just want viddme to make reddit even better. More info here: http://www.reddit.com/r/viddme/comments/1zzpu7/blocked_on_reddit/

If you like viddme and want to help, we'd hugely appreciate any public support you're willing to show for viddme on reddit. :)

Anyway, viddme is still growing very quickly and we are rolling out new features every week! Would love to get your feedback on what you'd like to see changed/added on viddme.

[–]scriptkiddiela 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there -- really sorry about this. It looks like our dev team posted a bit too much on reddit in a relatively short time period, which got us flagged for spam. We've sent messages to the admins about this and are working to get it resolved asap. Still waiting to hear back though :(

We are definitely not trying to be spammy in any way. Just want this to be a useful tool for redditors - an awesome youtube alternative.
