VIDEO: Solving DTUBE Problems For Easier On-Boarding Of Vlog Steemians!

in #dtube8 years ago (edited)

Hello Steemians,
There is something that has been bordering me and many other steemians for quite a while now. That's the issues that relate with making a D-Tube Video. Sometimes it could be quite difficult.

PROBLEMS & SOLUTIONS:

1- Problem Of Uploading:

  • It helps to clear your cache. That may actually solve over 90% of the problems
  • Use a high-speed internet connection. The longer it loads, the less likely for it to upload.
  • Shorten your videos. 2-5 mins tops. Anything longer may cost you an eternity for uploading.
  • Use a light-weight thumbnail picture.

2- The Problem Of Sharing Video:

  • This one has to be fixed by the DTube Developers Team.
  • We want our videos to automatically embed to Steemit posts just by pasting the links.
  • That way it gets easier to promote the site as well as the final product.

3- The Problem Of Upvotes:

  • Even though we shouldn't be making posts while expecting an upvote from Dtube account, we still do. Lolx
  • To curb this problem might be a little bit tasking.
  • I'm suggesting that the Utopian model might work out.
  • The use of moderators, curators etcx to find quality content videos may be a big plus for DTube.
  • This helps prevent upvotes from just being hapharzardly distributed.

4- The Problem Of Trending/Hot Videos

  • DTube can help Steemit fix its issue by bringing up the concept of categories.
  • Instead of lumping everything at one place as trending/hot/new/promoted, we can distribute videos based on categories.
  • Eg Videos with #cryptocurrency tag should be in one place. Then within this tag, sub-categories like hot/trending/new can then be featured.
  • Even Youtube groubs videos according to categories.

5- The Problem Of Views Count:

  • Thinking about it critically, you will quickly findout that its not everyone who views your STeemit posts that actually watches the video attached to it.
  • One of the ways of reducing this mismatch is already in No. 2 above.
  • The other ways would be to monitor video views and count it separately from STeemit views.
  • Every Videographer wants to know whether people actually watched his/her video.

It is my sincere hope that @Dtube and its team will take a look at some of these suggestions to make scalability easier.

I know that development and coding are difficult tasks. I only ask this because its the desire of all Steemians to see a better product that can compete with the very best out there (in this case Youtube). Financial incentives aren't just enough. The product too must be up to par.

Thank you!

Thanks for noticing this ,i believe they will work on it , i know they will since the suggestion is coming from you Sir , base on who you be lol , thanks for speaking for us all

You are welcome @sola3087,
We can only hope that @heimindanger who's at @Dtube's helm of affairs can look into this.
Thanks!

this is true man, I find it hard to tell my YouTube friends becuase i dont evefind it easy to use myself.

Exactly, how do you promote a difficult product?
I hope they upgrade soon enough.
Cheers man!

Several times I had tried to upload videos for which you are well aware of. I think those behind #Dtube should look into this suggestion and make do with it. More importantly is the curation part, hard working dtubers who upload quality videos should receive percentage of the upvote. This whole thing honestly is very confusing...

@eurogee

@Eurogee, I know that feeling.
It can be quite frustrating trying and trying without end.
I just hope they fix these soon.
Cheers man!

Well said. I downloaded a Dtube app recently because of some of these issues. It fixes the issue of Dtube always crashing everytime I try to upload

Does DTube have an app? I'm yet to see that. Will check it out though. Cheers!

Yeah, it was developed by one Asian dude, saw it on playstore

this analysis is wonderful, i believe they will look into it. Cheers Boss.
