RE: You can now publish videos to your own Steemit blog
Thanks to your post, I just found another issue. It turns out that editing a post on steemit will overwrite the json_metadata, and now the video is gone.
Right. I still had the video open and that link still works. So the video seems to be still there somehow. I updated the link in my comment and my post.
Unfortunately, its a flaw in the design. The video will die eventually, as none of the nodes will recognize it as such (it only lives as a cache on the upload server).
One way to rescue it would be to manually repair the
json_metadatafield in the post, however I'm not aware of an easy way to do it for a non technical person.In any case, I need to upgrade the design to fix this flaw.
Great bro
Ok, I am sure you guys can fix that. Awesome job so far!
Now we only need to change the payout system to make videos (and posts) profitable in the long run as well.
