News!! Google Video Beingness Retired - Comport Upon For Blogger?

If you lot upload a video through the icon inwards Blogger's Post Editor, it is stored inwards Google Videos - as well as AFAIK the solely agency to access it is via Blogger.

Google pick out instantly announced that :

Later this summertime [August 2012], all remaining hosted video on Google Video volition live on moved to YouTube. Google Video stopped taking uploads inwards May 2009 as well as instantly we’re moving the remaining hosted content to YouTube equally mortal videos.

You tin create exercise the videos uploaded to Google Video using http://www.google.com/video/upload/Status

Consequences:

My get-go idea was that if you lot pick out a spider web log alongside videos uploaded earlier the Post-editor switched over to operate <<whatever else>> for videos, therefore these volition halt working, because the place volition live on wrong when your videos are migrated.

But some initial testing makes me mean value this isn't right,  I just tried loading this video to a attempt blog.

Looking at the Google Videos condition page referred to inwards the article didn't present it - or whatsoever videos, fifty-fifty though I know at that spot are a few on my go spider web log from 2007. Examining the HTML behind the post didn't give whatsoever clues, it only looks similar this:

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <object class="BLOG_video_class" contentid="4b6e060e39565a4a" height="266" id="BLOG_video-4b6e060e39565a4a" width="320"></object></div>

But therefore I viewed the page as well as examined the source.   It has gems similar this:

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-4b6e060e39565a4a" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"> <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"> <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"> <param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://redirector.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D4b6e060e39565a4a%26itag%3D5%26source%3Dblogger%26app%3Dblogger%26cmo%3Dsensitive_content%253Dyes%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1343576696%26sparams%3Did,itag,source,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D81F0B23AAD667B6DFA253D870F9291421C511D1.14E0BA9FA0741AD193482CC06CEA121F670BDBE%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D4b6e060e39565a4a%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3Djlmosd6i-dm_mUe5oOEcYFhrGm4&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" flashvars="flvurl=http://redirector.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D4b6e060e39565a4a%26itag%3D5%26source%3Dblogger%26app%3Dblogger%26cmo%3Dsensitive_content%253Dyes%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1343576696%26sparams%3Did,itag,source,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D81F0B23AAD667B6DFA253D870F9291421C511D1.14E0BA9FA0741AD193482CC06CEA121F670BDBE%26key%3Dck1&iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D4b6e060e39565a4a%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3Djlmosd6i-dm_mUe5oOEcYFhrGm4&autoplay=0&ps=blogger" allowFullScreen="true" /></object> <a href="rtsp://v4.cache5.googlevideo.com/ChoLENy73wIaEQlKWlY5DgZuSxMYDSANFEgDDA==/0/0/0/video.3gp" type="video/3gpp"><img width="320" height="266" alt=" specially almost how Blogger industrial plant alongside other pop tools News!!

Fingers crossed it all industrial plant ok. I'm really interested inwards hearing almost whatsoever to a greater extent than query / answers you lot uncovering almost this change.  You know where the comment cast is, delight operate it as well as portion what you lot know! One concluding thought:

Videos that you lot added to Google Videos yourself

If you lot exercise pick out videos on your spider web log that you lot manually loaded to Google Videos as well as therefore set into your blog, you  can either:

• Download them yourself, motility them to a novel place inwards YouTube, as well as edit your blog-post to operate this novel location, OR
• Wait for Google to motility the videos, therefore become into YouTube as well as brand them world (not private), as well as therefore edit your blog-post to betoken to the novel location.

That said, if you lot plough over to pick out transferred ownership of your blog from some other describe concern human relationship to yours, as well as you lot no longer pick out access to that other Google account, therefore you pick out a problem: You cannot access them instantly through the link (becasue it's non your electrical flow describe concern human relationship that owns them), as well as they volition live on transferred to YouTube equally mortal videos nether that other account: you lot volition withal pick out no agency to access them, as well as the link volition change.

The solely pick would live on to somehow brand a re-create of the video using the existing vid inwards Google Videos via your spider web log - as well as exercise it earlier twenty August. Good luck.
