Thanks for the suggestion. Video player allows you to input your own video ads anywhere within the video player, but doesn't have VAST and VPAID support that allows you to earn money through advertisment networks. I will talk with programming team to add this feature, if you have suggestions on popular video advertisement networks that are used, we will be sure to add them if we already haven't and test things out to make sure we are compatible with them... :)
 
Hello:

Here is a few question:

Do you allow copyrighted material?
a .com domain , how will you be able to work under this domain on DMCA takeout?
The site speed is very slow, do you plan on have more servers and CDN? and When?
We need VAST ads support on player.
Why no bitcoin on upgrade payment?
For how long you are in busniess?
You count multible videos that generated by transcoding into the available space? or you count only the main file uploaded?

Thanks.

-We allow all video's to be uploaded except something extreme like child porn.

-Despite good traffic and operating for a bout a year now, we have never received a DMCA take-down request.

-Yes along with some other things. We've know about this issue and are still in talks with our new server management team, on the best approach we should take going forward. Hopefully next week I can tell you more.

-Yes, you are the second user to request this and we have forwarded the task to the programming team and it has been listed on their "User Requested Task List." I can probably give more information on when they expect to start working on this task sometime next week (Currently have lots of requests.)

-We are actively in the process of upgrading payment system to allow for more brands of payment, but crypto-currency is currently not being accepted. A lot more research by us and more proven stability of crypto is needed before we will be able to accept cryptocurrency

-For about a year. We got started after talking with one of the big anime websites out there. Their admin gave us some helpful advice on getting started :)

-The multiple videos generated after encoding is grouped as one big file and the original video is removed.
 
***WEBSITE SPEED/ ENCODING UPDATE***
*Just wanted to give everyone an update on website speed and task updates. In terms of improved speed of website and encoding we are probably two third's away from finalizing plans for our new server set up. We spent about 3 hours this morning hammering out major points between the server team and programming team. We are still hammering out some final details with regards to some of the smaller details, we will however be moving forward shortly. Since programming team will be performing new server configuration with oversight from new server management team, we've put all user requested tasks on hold for now until server move is complete. We are however very close to completing a few tasks listed below.

Finished:
1. Mass Video Deletion (You'll see trashcan on dashobard, we've noticed bug which doesn't allow you to select it but this will be fixed soon)
2. Exoclick advertisment network has been added (Will provide detailed instructions for each ad network after server migration complete)

In Progress:
1. Folder options (Mostly finished)
2. Multi-audio file (Finished but only works on IE, currently flushing out bugs that cause it not to work on other browsers)
3. Adding Stripe payment (Mostly finished just need to hook up to website.)
4. Image/Comic Book/Manga Hosting Integration with traditional and infinite scrolling options (A big project so we are in the middle of this)

Some users have reported a "rate limit" message when embedding video into their website. If issue continues please provide image as programming team has a hard time reproducing this error when we test out the code.
 
***Update 10/6/2018***
-Expect sometime next week implementation of new encoding system:

Pros:
-A lot faster than current encoding system
-A lot better quality than current encoding system

Cons:
-Waayy more expensive than current encoding system (Expect premium prices to go up)
-Initially we will start out having all uploaded video's go to 1080p and 720p (May adjust to user demand, but expect only 2 options for now)

The new trans-coding system is the system all users have probably been wanting for awhile now. Expect the prices to reflect the increase in speed and quality.
 
VAST and VPAID are still being worked on. We put a temporary pause on all tasks until we finished with implementation of new encoding system. Will keep you updated.

NOTE: For new encoding system we will allow all video qualities, but you will have the option to choose 2 resolutions for any one video. 1080p and 720 will be default but you can have a video resolution of 480 and 240 or 1080 and 360 ect... ect..
 
Feedback from me:
Website loading is still too slow. Needs too long when you want to log in, copy iframe code etc. I test it as main mirror but after 2 min your website was down so i had remove it from my website. Please upgrade first your homepage and backend server then you can optimize encoding. It´s not possible to use when you want to work at profile page or when you embed the video but it needs 10-20 seconds to load anything like the video code or until you see the video player.

Sorry for the delay in the response. Server team and programming team have been working frantically to finish new expensive encoding system as well as new server configurations. This Sunday we were working out a few bugs as well as testing server and encoding system. So your slow down Sunday may have been due to these reasons. (We will be sure to inform you of maintenance times in the future). With our new configurations we have seen a better response in page speed, but we will work to make it even faster. Current page speed and optimization tests (random):

***Update 10/9/2018***

With the conclusion of major updates to our servers and encoding system, we can now start working on user requested tasks again. From now on I will give you regular updates on the progress of each task here on wjunction Mon through Saturday, and possibly through email as well. Over the weekend with the implementation of our new servers and encoding system we have decided to focus more on quality rather than than the most cost effective thing. We want to strive to give each user the best experience possible. So with these new costly changes to server and encoding system we will have to significantly increase premium prices and have free accounts more so for testing purposes. Everything else will remain the same, and that includes taking on user requested tasks free of charge. With all the major changes we want to accurately price things right, and give users the best deal possible. So for the next few weeks we will eat the costs of the new changes and inform you when you can expect prices to change. Below is a short list of what tasks we are currently working on at the moment. Expect explanations and greater detail in my next update.

Active Tasks

1. VPAID and VAST
2. Multi-Audio Option
3. Image/Manga/Comic Book Hosting
4. Zoom Uploader
5. More Payment Options Like Stripe
6. Faster Dashboard


Queued Tasks

1. Multi-Video Player Options
2. Clearer Advertisement System Instructions

Reported Bugs

1. Volume not able to be played (Fixed)


If your requested task is not listed please let me know. :)
 
We are currently in the process of moving all old video's to new server, so you may notice significant difference in speed of video's uploaded today as compared to older video's. Once all older video's moved to new server, all video's will stream quickly.
