mutley 4,498 Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hi Gang, I am pleased to announce the arrival of the Mutley's Hangar Video Group (MHVG). With the ever increasing popularity of flight sim video's I have created a showcase group on SimTube in order that we can club all our videos together in one place. It is a public group so that anyone on SimTube or the great out doors will be able to view our videos and may be tempted to join the forum. I think SimTube is the way to go as it is dedicated to flight sim videos so you may find other great FS videos there too! You will need to join SimTube [Free] and upload your video first then join the group in order to add your video. The group member activation has to be done by me, once a member you can add videos at will, the initial video upload usually appears after only about 5 minutes! There is a forum attached to the group but I have disabled it as it will be too confusing where to look to comment, so I think a new post here with your comment and a URL link should do it you then will hopefully get feed back here. If you do decide to upload a video, contrary to previous posts I suggest you post ONLY the URL link here. I have been testing the embed function for SimTube videos on our forum and it looks as though the video is loaded when you view the forum rather than loading when you press play so takes an age to show, that's going to be annoying to other members. I hope you will take advantage of this, hopefully we will get more interest from flight sim users if they see plenty of action. If you get any problems using it or I have missed something out please let me know. So if you have any comments about the SimTube functionality or problems post here. Otherwise make a new post in the MHVG forum with a link to your video. And where is this group I hear you cry! http://www.simtube.com/groups_home.php? ... leyshangar If you only want to see the list of videos added use this link- http://www.simtube.com/gvideos.php?gid=18 p.s. I have posted a little teaser as to what *may* happen in the next ATWC adventure :mrhappy: Bookmark it!! Enjoy it!! Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

mutley 4,498 Posted July 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Hi panos, Sorry I have only just seen this post, are you still having problems? Link to post Share on other sites
A320cap 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 No. I uploaded it 5 times until it was truly uploaded! It's a bit frustrating Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted July 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Ok, sorry about that. Unfortunately these things are outside my control. My uploads were not quite that big. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
A320cap 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Yeah I know. I have posted this at their forums Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 O.K. - I've worked out how to upload, so, if you want a laugh, go to: http://www.simtube.com/view_video.php?viewkey=cd8d7dd095917f9efe4c You can tell I've not done this sort of thing at all before, so just imagine what Dr Strangelove would have been like if I'd been asked ...... no, don't go there!! Hope you didn't fall asleep - thanks for watching! Cheers - Dai. :shrug_no: Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted July 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 I'm looking forward to viewing this one! (In the morning as I'm too tired at the moment and I might just fall asleep!!) Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Dai, it was just great - what more could I ask for - the Beach Boys, a BUFF and a KC-135 all at the same time. Nice play on words with the title of the musical selection too. Good stuff! John Link to post Share on other sites

Do I get an email from you saying when I'm approved? Peter Hi Peter. I don't remember having to approve people on SimTube. I haven't used SimTube for many years and all our content is now published on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/mutleyshangar or in our forums here http://forum.mutleyshangar.com/index.php?/forum/15-videos/ . Hope that helps, Joe Link to post Share on other sites

mutley 4,498 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 @Funta Peter, I have just logged in to SimTube and it looks like you have been added to the group, contrary to what it says in the first post! Edit I have found the approve button, so you are approved Link to post Share on other sites

Hope that helps, Joe Joe, I'd prefer to work direct to the forum, rather than go through a 3rd party. When I click on your "forum.mutleyshangar" link above, though, I can't seem to see a way of directly uploading my (quite short) MP4 file. I can see the options to either nominate a URL, or "attachment," but when I select "attachment" I'm told I don't have any. I hoped at that point a File Explorer interface would appear & I'd just point ot the file on my PC. Do I HAVE to upload to some other site like Youtube before I can post a link to that site as part of the post to the Video Forum? Sorry if this seems a bit confused, but I'm a bit confused. No doubt there's a simple answer.. Peter. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 Ah, you can't upload directly here Peter, I don't have the storage capacity or bandwidth for steaming videos, that's why we have to use 3rd party hosts like YouTube. Without getting too technical, and essentially for security reasons, you can only link to videos directly from YouTube and Vimeo now (SimTube uses "swf" files which are a potential hazard). YouTube is free and I would be more than happy to create a quick tutorial on how to show videos here. Kind regards, Joe Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 YouTube is a terrific way to share your video work, and opens it to a wider audience as well. I have one FS video on my page that got picked up by the YouTube suggestion page and has well over 750 views on it so far...probably only 1/10th of those are directly from the Mutleys and ORBx forums I originally posted the vid. The youtube tracking pages gives some insight into the demographics viewing the work. It aint no Frooglesim, but knowing your work is being Seen is kind of nice. Looking forward to seeing Your work.
