Dear Papa,

I hope this message finds you well.

At current we have uploading of videos disabled, but that functionality will be restored very soon... otherwise... recording a video w/o a cam of sorts.. is .. going to be challenging.

soon.. very soon...

I just downloaded Twhirl at a friend's suggestion, and so far, I'm having the same problem. I push to refresh and get "limit exceeded" every time. I did adjust in the twhirl network settings,but no change.

I have this problem under Twhirl 0.8.3 and Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.3.

Twhirl has great support for multiple accounts but only remembers / launches a window for one of them, and doesn't remember my password for it. When I click 'Accounts' then I can add the second account again but at the moment I have to do this every time I log in.

So close to being the perfect twitter client!

Critter replied on July 04, 2008 10:45 to the question "on OS X Twhirl requires unrestricted system access?" in Seesmic:

aye. no worries though... we need to be able to read/write config files to the HD...

It's all good. If there was something freaky going on.. with the amount of users we have.. you definitely would have heard something by now :)

LLAMA replied on July 03, 2008 18:01 to the problem "Friendfeed Won't Display When I Start Twhirl!" in Seesmic:

I'm having the same problem. Twirl keeps asking for my remote key... I enter it and it asks for it again right away and the message on the bottoms say's.. "Friendfeed data unavailable for LLAMA"

Fernanda replied on July 03, 2008 03:29 to the idea "New feature request: send private videos to a group" in Seesmic:

This feature will allow seesmic as a communication tool to turn into a collaboration tool. So many conversations want to happen where you don`t want external noise but the small intimate group.

I deleted the mail in question, sorry. But it's simple enough to see -- the URL has the sequence foo/#blah/ -- which stops Apple Mail making the entirety of the URL into a link

This is Monday, June 30 and I'm still getting "connection lost" when trying to post a video. Is it still a problem for other people? HELP!

I have exactly the same problem. I believe the bug should be on seesmic that you can "unselect" a default and remove it from a list. I think you can remove a webcam on skype or a virtual webcam so that it doesn't hang seesmic trying to translate a "virtual" image. This problem is actually even more difficult in a "chat" window or embedded video of which I would like to reply to via video.
This is the video I would like to reply to:

and for me, it is only getting my audio recording, probably because seesmic has activated the stupid virtual webcam.

I guess a draconian measure would be to remove and unistall this virtual webcam software with all of it's avatars. I think I clicked a setting to activate it and I wish I could find how to unactivate it.

A comment on the problem "intermittent video upload problems" in Seesmic:

The feature was removed (temporarily? I don't know) subsequent to someone spamming the timeline with porn videos from youtube. We have to ask for it to be restored back I guess! – Otir, on June 28, 2008 14:16

Dalmatica replied on June 28, 2008 13:51 to the problem "intermittent video upload problems" in Seesmic:

The "upload a video" button seems to have disappeared. I currently can't find an option to upload a pre-recorded video from my computer or something I've posted on youtube. Anyone know what's happened to it? It's been like this for a few days now.

Hello Edd,

Could you post here the contents of the email you've received?

Thanks,

The Live Cam Virtual software came bundled with the monitor and was automatically installed along with everything else that came with it. This software does actually launch when I go to the Record video section on Seesmic and as mentioned previously the camera is also activated. It seems, however, that Seesmic cannot read the camera's stream via this software (or something along those lines). If I shut this software down, then the camera powers down and I cannot get it to turn on again without refreshing the entire Seesmic page, which takes me back to the original issue.

The problem seems to be that the Seesmic player detects this software and launches it rather than just launching the webcam with the basic controls. Skype for example works fine with this webcam and does not launch the "proxy" program when I want to have a video conversation. I don't understand why Seesmic launches the proxy software when other chat programs don't.

Also, like I mentioned before, the interface is not very helpful. What is the difference between the left-hand drop-down and the right-hand drop-down lists?

Critter replied on June 27, 2008 16:03 to the problem "Cannot record a video on Seesmic anymore" in Seesmic:

The "Live cam virtual" leads me to believe you might have installed some other software that acts as a 3rd party go-between. I've used programs like that in the past.. it would require you to have /that/ program running at in order to use it as a proxy for the camera.

Is that the case?

Give it one more shot.. and if it does not work, email me at critter /at/ seesmic.com for email verification and I will have it manually redone.
