... from archive.org, to see if they have archived it. My assumption is that their servers are U.S.-based. And Vimeo (if I remember correctly) also gave the "This video is not available" error. But that may not always be the case with archive.org. I have seen German "Google needs your permission..." warnings when accessing some sites, so something else is going on. I also tried other ways of accessing it, that presumably use U.S. internet addresses, that are difficult to explain, but I still got "This video is not available..." Another message that I have sometimes seen is, "The uploader has not made this video available in your region..." That is NOT the error that I got. Well, it looks like it may be a regional thing -- but that doesn't make sense, given the different ways I tried to access the video. There is that site that tells you which regions/countries a YouTube video may/may not be accessed from. I have the URL somewhere, and maybe I'll look for it. Well, for those who get the "Video not available" error, I provided an alternative -- with clear warnings about possible malware problems. That is the best that I can do... M. When I learn to do things better than the best that I can do them, perhaps I'll make fewer mistakes. But until then, don't hold your breath... |
