Big Boy, what do you drive, you seem to be moving right along in the deep water?????

One of the many things that impressed Mrs J.B. and me about Hua Hin is that it's still very much an active fishing town - seeing the green glow of the lights just over the horizon at night is still something to behold. Here's some footage that I shot in August last year (2012) from the beaches and one of the piers that I've made into a little homage to these people who bring us their daily catch!




I'm not sure if the video link is working, any technical help or advice from the mods would be appreciated. Failing that, the link within the YouTube instructions works if you cut and paste it.

should it be youtu.be or youtube?

EDIT: Cancel above question, it worked as youtu.be as a cut and paste.

Deleted, found answer per below post.

Re why some YouTube videos won't embed, I found it as follows:

"Note: if you use any of the following:

youtu.be
https instead of http
&feature=player_embedded

Or anything other than simply youtube.com in your link, embedded videos will not work."

BB is pretty spot on with the time and date.

Once you have enough views on your YT channel they give you the option to monetise your videos by adding Google ads, this is only available on videos with the original audio (not third party music). What I dont get is that YT still flaps if you use one of the thousands of royalty free songs available.

I've been taking some grief with that myself. You have to dispute it quoting the url you took the music from (the royalty free sites) with the track name etc.
Then after a month they should back off! I say should as I should know in a week or so if the first of my disputes releases their hold on a few of my videos.

Its driving me nuts - another two of my videos have been blocked "pending review", the tracks I used came from YouTube's own free audio library, how can they block their own content that they say you can use?
