[videoblogging] BlipTV videos not playing (anyone else see this?)
This has been plaguing me for the past 2-3 days. Some videos on BlipTV just simply don't play for me. Specifically this affects my own videos but I've also noticed it on other videos as well. For example i can't watch Ruperts video: http://twittervlog.tv/?p=470 The Flash player simply shows a black window. I can't watch the source video either, so it's not isolated to the flash player. I've tested this on a Mac and PC. I've also had a friend of mine test this so I know it's not my service provider. The problem is also intermittent. Sometimes it will play and sometimes it will not. When it doesn't play all you get is a black box inside the player window with a spinning throbber. I've contacted BlipTV but they don't know what the problem is. Am I crazy? has anyone else noticed this?

I noticed a similar but different problem. This morning at the MeFeedia vlomo08 site/channel, I was watching some of the video - some blip-based videos, like Ryanne's I Voted video, wouldn't play - it just acted like it was infinitely loading. But when I visited her site, the video played fine. Not sure if this is related or not...

You're not crazy. Others have noticed the issue, we blogged about it at http://blog.blip.tv/blog/2008/11/03/isolated-problems-throughout-the-we ekend/ and we are still in the process of sleuthing, but according to our network engineer, the problem has cleared up in the past hour. Please let us know at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you find any more problems. Thanks, Charles

I've had the same problem on one of my videos. I tried on safari and firefox with the same results. A few hours later I tried again and the video displayed correctly.

What a drag. These things happen occasionally at most of the video sites, and then get resolved. As far as my videos are concerned, you can almost always find other copies of them at Vimeo and Ovi, but of course that doesn't address the problem at Blip. Glad that Charles says it's resolved now. I have to say, over time I've found Blip more reliable than all the other video sites in terms of downtime and problems.
