Entertainment Clam Video Problem

Posted by: Sean | Posted on: March 26th, 2009 | 0 Comments

I noticed today that YouTube had been changing a few things to do with layout on there site, but what i didnt know was that they changed there bloody embeding code for linking to other sites. This will only affect people who are linking to videos that are not meant to be linked to like most of the videos on my entertainment site :sad:

The reason my videos have stopped playing is not my fault, i am running a script called Php Melody, and they have made some mad script that allows me to add laods of videos with a click of a button, even if it says you cannot embed it, i can!

I have sent off an e-mail to support to see what the story is with them releasing a patch to fix this, i expect an e-mail by tomorrow telling me, they are usually very fast at responding. Last time youtube changed there code, a patch was released really quick, so hopefully this new change to youtube code will not be to difficult to hack or adjust too.

Exam Tomorrow

Tomorrow I have an exam in Database Programming, this involves creating tables and updating, etc. We are currently learning the basics of SQL and I think it is interesting enough. Since I started this class this semester I have become more familiar with how to view information in my database.

Not that I would be editing much at the moment in SQL, however in the future it will be a great resource to have for when I make a website. I think in my third year (Next Year) it will be required to be used when making our final project, which will be to create a website, using all the skills and knowledge we have learned over the years in the course.

In tomorrows exam however I am not too worried, I am confident that I will be able to pass it, and as an added bonus the exam will be open book so I can bring all my notes in with me. When I am at home I use XAMPP to practice using SQL, with XAMPP it allows you to do many things such as install sites offline, it is basically a server on your pc, I made a post last year about how to set up XAMPP, check it out here to find out how.
