Hi

I have uploaded 2 videos to YouTube. When I go to the Fifa Gamer Media page and try to submit my video with my YouTube video link I am getting the following error message "Could not parse media URL" anyone received something similar before.

This is my first time trying to upload a video for the GOTM competition lol

Thanks

What's the actual URL you're trying to paste in?

It should just be something very simple like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kk8Fxl2YIo

If it contains any 'embed' text or other parameters it may not work.

It's best to use the direct url for the clip on YouTube, rather than having any other parameters in such as "embed" etc...

ie. Use this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLJAfmQXQj0


Rye helped me with above direction.

edit: .....and I see that he helped you too. Sorry....I didn't read the whole thread first. :D

I would say a maximum of 4, but if you score another which you really think beats the others you can enter a 5th.

If we have loads of entries overall, then we'll choose one best goal per person, so everyone has at least one entry.

Ok that's fine thanks.

By the way thanks for the comments about my goals Rye and Andy I have to learn about improving the video quality etc, I used my iPhone lol . I posted my reply here as PM's do get full pretty quick.
