New Video Streaming Method (updated)

Thursday, February 28th, 2008 | Helpful, Site Updates

So this morning I was frustrated to see that my entire top 10 was dead as well as most of my other links from other sources. Since then I have been searching for other movies that people have already uploaded to the net. Having found a ton of AVI files in open directories etc.. (thanks Google) I was happy. Then I found a site listing a bunch of AVI movies on FlyUpload.com. Of course they were listed as “Download Only / No Streaming”.

So I figured if I could fix that problem then there is already a massive quantity of full length movies uploaded to FlyUpload. So I studied how it worked and I have found a new method that lets me convert videos on their site, into ones that stream on mine, and though I like having streaming movies that nobody else has, I have told the method to a couple other sites; in hopes that having them knowing this will let them keep uploading and finding more videos there, so that I do not have to do all the work myself.

I am just putting the links I find onto the site and though I THINK they are in English and not messed up, there are no comments where I found them, so please tell me if you see videos in foreign languages without subs, or find some other problem with the videos.

I am hoping this is the new “Veoh videos in DivX player” that I used to have until they locked it down (when they locked it down I had 163 working movies from their site). I am confident in this so I have started converting a ton of these videos I have found into videos for the site. If they all die in 1 day I am going to be rather annoyed. So lets hope that doesn’t happen.

UPDATE: BAH…. Seems as soon as one person opens the video the link changes itself. Yes, this means that I just spent a long time adding movies only to be removing them all at the end of the night. I won’t delete them. I can make them work quickly, but if I leave them in the menu it will confuse people since I can’t be here every minute to explain the movies and then fix the broken links.

UPDATE (again, but after a good nights sleep): Oh look all my stage6 links stopped working today. Well that was expected, but still sucks. I figured out the way to fix all these links so they will fix themselves without me doing it, however I am crazy busy today and it requires I make a script. They will be back soon.

UPDATE 3: All the FlyUpload videos work again!
