I cant see the video I posted. Any ideas? Just sayed rendered video

I see it.  It's weird.  Some videos posted I can click on and watch via this site, others I have to save to downloads, then delete because several months later I'm looking at downloads and trying to figure out where the hell these videos came from, lol. 

@nywaw, can you shed some light on these two different video downloads?

Nice buck @First Light and welcome to the site! :up:

Regarding the video, it has to do with the video format and device/browser it's being viewed in.  It's a MOV format which is Apple's format and plays fine on my iPhone in Safari but may not in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge on other devices.  

I'll put a Q&A topic up on this in the Site Q&A forum explaining it better :up:

Short answer is files need to be converted to a format (usually MP4) to play in all browsers but it's a PITA for browser companies to expects users to do that.

Thanks saw some old folk that I missed. Still on the other site which is doing fine. 

Not trying to hijack the thread but I've been wondering since I got here - what is the "old site" and why was a new one started? :blink:

Not going there! lol

 

Hence the PM.

I have a lot of respect for the old site. I'd hate for it to end. 

I've often searched for info that I remembered info from several years ago. 

Too much info to just let it go bye bye. 

Yes, some obviously is outdated, but the expertise of the older members can't be, and shouldn't be forgotten.
