Strange Things At The Video Sites - A Little Experiment
Posted on 9:57 am by Paul ColliganI put together a little video about maximizing the Social Media Telesummit over at YouTube, MySpace, Metacafe, Google, DailyMotion and Blip.tv. The same video was submitted to these 6 sites (I’m certainly not the type to create 6 different videos).
According to my Mac, the video is 10 minutes and 19 seconds. Since I created this video on my Mac, I’m going to trust that.
Over at YouTube, well, heck, I’ll embed it …
… you’ll notice that it makes the video 9 minutes 12 and starts with audio later in the piece.
The video as submitted looks great over at Blip (see the embed):
but … it lists it at 10:06. Where did those other 15 seconds go.
Here she is at MySpace …
… but it starts my video on the second slide. WhatTheHeck? And, by the way, MySpace clocks it in at 10:05.
I’m really confused. Anyone else having these kinds of problems?

Paul-
I did an upload yesterday to all the accounts I have with Tubemogul.
Yahoo returned a “Yahoo! temporarily undergoing site redesign. Uploader will be back soon.”
As for the rest, half succeeded, and half says “Uploaded & awaiting confirmation”
It looks like I will try to resubmit, or upload manually (Yahoo wouldn’t let me yesterday).

Paul,
I just checked the last video that i did through TubeMogul and they all display a duration time within one second of the original video. So there’s nothing strange for me. I wish I had an idea of why you might be seeing that. It’s odd, indeed. I haven’t used MySpace yet.
