More YouTube joy... can anyone help?
 

Okay, now YouTube has decided that a video I've uploaded to my own channel isn't available in my country. Could you let me know if you get an error message when trying to view this?

(snip - see message later in thread)

I can watch it if I'm logged in, but when I'm logged out it just says "This video is not available in your country."

I would love to report this to YouTube tech support, but there's no way of doing so! They have no contact address anywhere, and the troubleshooting section just shows you a FAQ even though it's supposed to contain a form for contacting them.

I can see it Krisse. I'm in the US.

Thanks for that Reggie! Can anyone in Europe see it?

Bulgaria too. Not available.

Re: More YouTube joy... can anyone help?
 

This is really weird. I think I'll try deleting it and uploading again.

Re: More YouTube joy... can anyone help?
 

"This video has been removed by the user."

- UK on UK YouTube.

OK, it's all reuploaded now. Can people let me know if they can see this, especially people from outside America?

Works here too.

That's great, looks like Youtube just messed up my first upload, but the second one seems fine.

Thanks VERY MUCH for your help everyone, I really couldn't have checked something like this without people from all round the world!

The internet is amazing. :-)

Aergh, it's doing it to me again, and reuploading a video doesn't cure the problem this time.

Does anyone know how to contact YouTube tech support, even just to let them know this is a problem?

There's absolutely no contact form on their help or FAQ pages, even though they claim there is one.

Aha... apparently THIS is the address for sending feedback:

http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/request.py

There's no link to it within the YouTube site, I only found this by doing a standard Google search for "contacting youtube".

Can I ask a favour again from people on here? Could you let me know if this plays for you, and let me know which country you're in:

I'm especially interested to hear if it plays in America.

Re: More YouTube joy... can anyone help?
 

yup, it plays fine here in the USA

Great, thanks very much GeraldKo. I'd thank everyone in this thread if there were Thanks buttons...
