  3. To check the Club youtube channel use the following link https://www.youtube.com/user/GT86BRZOwners/playlists First you need to get your account associated with the YouTube channel so send Rob (or me? do I have admin rights) the e-mail associated with your YouTube so we can add you Login to YouTube with your account as usual, top right you should see your name, click on it and choose switch account from the options that appear Select "GT86BRZDrivers" from the menu It will then show top right that you are logged in to the club channel You can then upload as usual but it will go to the club channel rather than your own account To switch back afterwards, same procedure, click where it says "GT86BRZDrivers" and select your own account Alec

    I did the same, was diving in Egypt when mine was delivered, got back to Manchester airport at 2 a.m. down to RRG Macc at 10 a.m., then drove it 250 miles to Essex, kipped the night at my Mum's then drove 250 miles back (Tom Tom shortest route no motorways so it got a decent run in) Alec

    Club YouTube channel

    See the howto thread for tips here http://www.gt86.org.uk/forums/topic/1586-how-to-add-videos-to-the-club-youtube-channel/ Alec
  9. Our YouTube channel is here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvl3wJhdXmMY1ZHBUaY7Uow I've added a load of links to the playlists on the YouTube channel, if you have some spare time they are well worth a look https://www.youtube.com/user/GT86BRZOwners/playlists Each playlist is organised based on the content, some are club events, some are youtube reviews, ads, promtional vids etc Enjoy If you send rob the e-mail you use for youtube then you can easily add any vids you upload or find while browsing youtube to the club playlists. I'll do a how-to in the morning Alec p.s. if anyone knows how to order the playlists themselves rather than their contents let me know as I'd like the BHP one to be at the top
  10. Ok here's how to add videos that you have found or uploaded to the clubs youtube channel Click on your username and select switch account to the "GT86BRZDrivers" account (you need Rob to add you to do this) Navigate to the video, note top right shows you are logged into the club account, select the "Add to" button to the right of the "Like" thumbs up button This will open up the list of playlists for the account you are logged in as, to add the video to one of the existing playlists just click on it, the numbers next to the playlists show how many videos are already in it The text entry box at the bottom can be used to create a new playlist (we'll explain this in a minute) You then get the green bar and a tick appears next to the playlist to show this video is now in it, you get the chance to add a note against the new entry as well If there isn't already a suitable playlist, then enter the name for the new one and select the "Create Playlist" button Remember if you see a tick next to a playlist it means that the video is already in it, if you select it again then it will be removed from the playlist and the tick will disappear, click on the playlist again to add it again. Tick means it's in the playlist You can also create playlists in your own account, but these won't show up to people looking at the club youtube channel Hope this helps Alec
  11. The way to do this is to add your videos to a playlist on the clubs youtube channel To do this you need to get Rob to authorise your e-mail for the club youtube channel so you can switch to the club account (as described above) Then navigate to the video you want to add, it can be any video not just yours, then use the "Add To" button. If you have switched to the club account you can choose one of the club playlists and add the video or create a new playlist for the video I'll post a tutorial with some screenshots in the next post Alec

    Sorry will be going to Man City vs West Ham to see if we can do better than losing 6-0 Have been to 2 there and they are good, but don't turn up at 12 as they are winding down by then Oh and don't go round Will's after or his neighbour will reverse into your door

    Just in the process of loading loads of vids to the you tube channel, have a look through them https://www.youtube.com/user/GT86BRZOwners/playlists When I was waiting for mine in 2012 there was only review vids to watch as no owners had them

    Keethos' GT86 Journey Back To Health + Mods

    Not sure if these would be a straight swap? Are they HID ? Find the e-bay add quite confusing as to whether they are or not ? Alec

  23. add on to firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/download-youtube/ or with chrome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTNFlZeQvoc
  24. You can add a watermark to your own videos like the one I have added to the club channel videos, see the small 86 logo top right once you start the vid playing Log into YouTube Go to Video Manager, select Channel Settings Select InVideo Programming Select Add a Watermark Choose an image file (I'll upload the one I did to https://www.facebook.com/groups/278484378954818/files/ watermark3.png) Select when it should be displayed Click Update and it should say "Saved successfully" Then when someone else watches your video if they hover over the watermark they are offered the option to subscribe to your channel You don't have to do this for the Club one as I have already set it up, so all videos uploaded will get the watermark added automatically Same for yours, you only have to set it up the once and all existing and future vids get the watermark Unfortunately you don't seem to be able to resize or reposition it, you get what you get at a fixed pixel count, so try and keep the image roughly square and it will resize it If you don't like it you can remove it and apply another Alec
