Future Video Hosting/Streaming Poll
Added 2020-12-16 18:28:10 +0000 UTCYOU CAN CHECK MORE THAN ONE OPTION! Please do, it helps!
Hey hyungries! So I'm not sure if many of you heard but the good ol' P-Hub has gone downhill and has deleted all non-verified/model videos, including mine and a majority of the website actually.
I'm always trying to look for the best way to share my videos with you guys and to give the best viewing experience. Right now, it looks like my most convenient option is using Dropbox & direct NewTumbl links. The quality isn't the absolute best on Dropbox because it's technically an 'encoded preview' but it's the only thing that works right now. NewTumbl uploads in good quality but it seems the buffering speed is pretty horrid. I just wanted to get your input, is it working for you? Is it easy to follow the link and watch the video? Mobile friendly? I'd like to get an idea of how my supporters feel! Also, if anyone has any other good suggestions for NSFW video hosting, I'd gladly appreciate them!
EDIT: Sorry, I realized I linked a video with no sound lmao. Changed it.
I haven't linked a NewTumbl link in a while so here's an example. Step Ed 3 --

That’s because I turned off the downloads for now. I’m going to be updating the links soon because i want to make them downloadable only for my patrons (bc I distributed the links publicly in the past.) Just got to get everything organized first 😅

2020-12-17 22:30:16 +0000 UTCThe only issue I’ve had with Dropbox is not being able to download some of the videos. I’m not sure if that is my phones issue or what. But I noticed it was on some of the shorter videos.
2020-12-17 22:26:28 +0000 UTCNo problem

2020-12-16 23:34:18 +0000 UTCI had no buffering issues with the tumbl link

2020-12-16 22:57:52 +0000 UTCThanks for the info! For those who don't have a dropbox account-- i may have to split my videos that go over an hour in length in the future. Not that I'm hinting that I'll be having any future hour long videos lol 😒

2020-12-16 20:38:42 +0000 UTCHi, I just wanted to drop in and say that for Dropbox, any video over an hour's length you'll have to properly download to said-Dropbox account in order to watch it all. I learned this for my online Film class. Hopefully this helps!

2020-12-16 20:34:09 +0000 UTCThank you! I've looked into that previously, it looks like they have a bandwidth limit though. Unfortunately, with my videos being as long as they are, the bandwidth would easily go over the limit every month lol.

2020-12-16 19:57:57 +0000 UTCThank you for letting me know! I wasn't even aware of that situation. I'll try to look into it!

2020-12-16 19:51:56 +0000 UTCDropbox works but I'd be wary of longer videos. I was watching Love Me Mor the other day and ot only shows an hour of it. I ended up going to x-video to watch the rest because it got cut off.

2020-12-16 19:11:46 +0000 UTCOkay, so when you open the dropbox links in the Patreon app, at the top of the screen where you see 'dropbox.com' and a lock next to it, tap and hold down until the 'copy' options shows up. Then just go to your google chrome mobile browser and paste in the link, it should work!

2020-12-16 19:08:38 +0000 UTCYes I use iPhone. Maybe that’s the problem? I got rid of Safari after it refused to load PH videos. I use Chrome now.

2020-12-16 19:06:03 +0000 UTCOh gosh, I just realized that the video itself had no sound, that's why haha. I've changed the link, let me know if it works!
hyungry
2020-12-16 18:49:25 +0000 UTCNewTumbl looks great, but I didn’t get any sound that’s why I voted for Dropbox.
2020-12-16 18:47:32 +0000 UTCDropbox def works!! Found out about your videos first thru myreading though!! Maybe it’d be cool to keep postin there too? :0 ♡ anw, dropbox definitelyyy!!

2020-12-16 18:45:30 +0000 UTCI'm with the majority. I've never used tumbl but the test piece offered worked fine for me . If in the end Dropbox is best for you (but quality might be slightly affected) I'm more than happy with Dropbox, I'm sure quality will improve over time as systems / technology improves - Basically " if it ain't broke, don't fix it " :-)

2020-12-16 18:42:47 +0000 UTCDo you mean that it gets stuck in vertical/portrait mode? Do you use an iPhone? For that, you need to open the dropbox link in your mobile browser instead of the the Patreon app... for some reason, it gets stuck in vertical mode -- at least for iPhones that seems to be the case. When you click on the link, on the bottom right corner it should show a 'safari' icon-- just click it and it'll open the link in your safari browser instead. It should be able to turn full screen afterwards. Also, make sure to hit the full screen button in the top left corner of the video once you hit play.

2020-12-16 18:42:25 +0000 UTCOf the two, I prefer Dropbox. However, I dislike how it doesn’t take up the full screen if I turn my phone. I have terrible eyesight so reading the text can be hard at times.

2020-12-16 18:39:31 +0000 UTCNewTumbl is cool and Dropbox too !

2020-12-16 18:37:48 +0000 UTCI haven't had any issues with Dropbox and like it better that anything else. I agree with keeping xvideo for publicity sake. Quality might be worse, but it gets us in the door and curious about what you can do!

2020-12-16 18:35:24 +0000 UTCXvideos will definitely still be used for public releases. I’m thinking more towards Early Access videos. Also, xvideos quality is horrid as well 😞
hyungry
2020-12-16 18:32:37 +0000 UTCDropbox is ok. Keep Xvideos for visibility, though.
