How about a FOG YouTube channel?

I got a couple to play.  I checked on mine that has been up for a long time.  Nope.

This is a you tube issue.  I'll let Shane know.

Edit:  I went to youtube normally.  I then tried to find my video.  I could then play it.  Hmmm?

 
Looks like there is a problem on YouTube's end.  It only appears to be videos submitted by other members that are experiencing the problem.  Any videos submitted by us (Festool USA) are working fine.  I'll see if I can get in touch with their support people and figure it out.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

Tried again today and found a few worked, but most did not -- even many of those submitted by Festool aren't working.

You are the techy guy!  Hack in, and get it fixed Shane....sheesh.  BTW, the YouTube Channel sounds like a killer idea.

Funny, T.  Well, I haven't heard back from them yet but I did just check it out and the interface has changed for the Group Channels.  There are additional options available to administer it and some page layout changes.  I suspect the issues are related to the "new and improved" group channels changes being implemented.  I hope it will clear itself up before long.

Update: Just found this posted on the Google support forum website.  They are apparently aware of the problem and working on it.

Known Issue: bug playing videos in YouTube Groups

Hey guys,

We've seen many of you report that videos you've submitted to a YouTube Group are not playing on the page. A  grey box appears in place of where the video should appear in the player and sometimes an error message is displayed stating that the video is no longer available. The video is in fact still available (from the uploader's channel and in search), but its just showing as unavailalbe in the Group setting.

This situation has been reported to our Team here in San Bruno, and our engineers are currently investigating the issue and working on a fix.

Many thanks to you all for letting us know about this bug, & we really appreciate your patience as we work on a fix.

All the best from this end!

~ Liz (on behalf of the YouTube Team)

Just a quick update on the YouTube group channel (http://festool.tv).  It appear YouTube has made progress on the changes they are implementing for the group channel functionality on their site.  As a result, it appears that all of the videos on our group channel are now accessible again.  Just a reminder that anyone can add their videos to the channel to share.

EDIT:  link typo corrected
