    Oh gosh! They have really made a mess of things.

    First, the delay - a better version of the same video of my talk is actually available in my own Youtube channel for more than five months now:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csA7-SUtUcw (mandoc part 1)
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntf-dNahJQc (mandoc part 2)

    So apparently, they didn't even bother to search Youtube to see whether any of their stuff was already posted earlier. Besides, they could have known: When i got the video from them, i told them that i would publish it on Youtube.

    Second, what they have posted now is completely uncut and includes long breaks where nothing is said or shown, while what i posted half a year ago is properly cut, only including the actual talk.

    Third, they put it into the wrong category - "People & Blogs", really?

    Fourth, they just dropped the raw videos into a bare, empty channel and didn't even bother to set up a proper playlist. So they cannot easily link in videos posted earlier in other channels.

    Fifth, they failed to use the existing EuroBSDCon channel. Like, what, trying to avoid actually bringing their content to their subscribers? Calling a Channel "EuroBSDCon 2014" is a sad move - you *really* don't want a new channel every year, that's what playlists are for.

    Still, i dediced to feature their dayfly channel on my own Youtube channel, because, well, that seems to be the best available for some other talks...

      Your critic has some Points Ingo but I like to ask you soemthing else:
      I don't have a subscripton to your YouTube Channel. Why didn't Undeadly had a post about your Video being avaiable at YouTube?

      Your critic is nice but I think you could have written a small story for Undeadly as well to let us (oher users) know about this Video! :-/

      And: @Undeadly: If the Videos where avaiable already for months why is this now a story?!


      Kind regards,
      Sebastian

        Because the videos that did appear after the conference covered only some 25% of all available talks, and the rest weren't available at all. Now they have been made available so we posted it for the ones that wanted to see the 75% not shown before.

      To browser error message: It is because old Adobe Flash Player, 11.2 is old, videos need newer version.

      Solved: missed the audio group.
