Same here-

I get to step three and wait and wait and wait- it says opening, or connecting, then uploading video. I get a full bar but the page that says thanks and gives the "upload more videos" never appears. I checked my earnings and profile and they do not show pending or anything! I have three movie reviews published already - $15 the same day in the paypal account- I read somewhere that they pay fast for first run movie reviews- I guess that information was correct! I've made a total of 21 reviews, however, this not going to page 4 is aggrivating me because I can't upload them! My goal is 100 for July and this glitch is seriously cramping my style -

Next month I'll get these done early and submit them so I can avoid the end of the month log jam!

Oh, just checked back and found out that 1 of the videos has gone through- I reached the 4th page! Yeah! I'm happy, now lets see if I can get another to upload-

I just got one in. Maybe it was a fluke?

I just uploaded my last 12. It was not working earlier, but it seems fine now. 100 uploaded 7 approved

They have a message on the forums saying they were working on the problem, so hopefully now it will work. DH and DD did a ton of vids last night that I need to get uploaded today.

Did you try turning off the screen for the camera? I did this and get a LOT more out of the batteries! It was sucking em up like crazy before. Also, they said they send tax forms after you earn $600 in a calendar year

No, how do you turn off the screen? That would be great if I could get more life out of my new batteries!

I have about 30 uploaded now and got 1 approved!

I took my own advice and saved the videos I made last night to a flash drive and brought them in with me to work; I uploaded 6 of them in under 20 minutes. So far 11 videos but not approved.

Question, what are all of you putting in the description box?

My camera has a little button to the left of the viewfinder that turns the lcd on and off (avp/lcd button). I am going to buy an AC adapter for the times I am near an outlet.

The expo site is slow today, everyone trying to make their July quota? but at least it's working!

Ok question... does anyone know of a place where I could transfer files from my SD memory card onto a CD/DVD? Our USB ports are out of commision it seems but I want to upload my videos. I know Walmart and such can transfer photos but what about videos somewhere?

Very frustrating!!! I uploaded two videos this morning and went back to do more and now there is a message popping up saying the sight is going to be down most of the day for routine maintnance! Not the time of month to be closing down the site!! Does anyone else get this message?

 

[tinkerbellmagic]

Expo TV site is down until next THURSDAY???!!!! (aug 2)

They say come back later today, but that they will unveil a new site next Thurs. I wonder if we can use it before then.

Yes, I got that message! I had been trying to upload a video. After 20 mins and nothing happening, the site completely shuts down. They said they'd be down for most of the day, like you said, but then it says for users to come back on Thurs! Sheesh! Wow, I can't believe the bad luck I'm having with this. lol. tink

Expot TV site is down until next THURSDAY!!!! (aug 2)

Where did you get this info? I thought it was just for a while today

 

[tinkerbellmagic]

Where did you get this info? I thought it was just for a while today

When they stopped my video upload with a pop up message, that is when they stated that loyal users can come back next Thurs to see a new Expo TV. Now I notice the pop-up on the site does not have that info about Thurs.

I hope it's not true.

I got the same "Thursday" message as some of the other posters.There goes my money for July -I just joined and have been working like crazy to get my 100 videos done before next Tuesday, only three videos published- I'm happy about that but hoped to get all 100 uploaded . I stayed up last night until 4am, I have to work when the kids are asleep- all three are special needs and it's almost impossible to do anything when they are up. I researched over 40 items, downloaded videos to my computer, edited, made sure I had the correct names and information for the toys and such. I got up bright and early, only had 2 hours of sleep, and started working on this and now this!

While I'm thankful to have the opportunity to earn money this way, it fits my SAHM style and availability, I'm disheartened. Money is really tight right now and I was so excited to get this going today.

I guess I'll try to make some videos during nap time, at least the day won't be a total loss!

This is the message I got:

sorry!
ExpoTV.com is down temporarily for scheduled maintenance. The site should be back up shortly.
If you're visiting ExpoTV for the first time, well hello there. People love our honest product reviews. Many visitors go on to become members and create thier own product reviews. For every video review accepted members receive $5.00. So bookmark this page and come back later today!


I guess I will keep trying later on tonight as I have about 30 more to upload between mine and my husbands acct. I really think we ought to be more prepared to do all of our uploading in the beginning of the month next time.

 

[tinkerbellmagic]

It's back up! lol I feel like such an alarmist!

 

[tinkerbellmagic]

1. Does anyone know why some reviews you are watching stop and start a couple times per review? Is that a site issue or a problem with your video?

2. Also, what happens if, when you preview your submitted pending review, it suddenly ends in the middle and then goes back to the beginning and you never get to see the complete review? Do they keep those up there or are they rejected? Actually, I have seen many like this on expo that have been approved. I wonder if it happens because Expo cut you off before your upload was complete. It's kind of a bummer when you have something to say about a movie or product and people only hear half of the full review. I'd rather resend it, but they don't leave us that option once it is accepted.

thanks, tink
