Trying to add a YouTube video to Magenta...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QD_X7RGjbmE

https://www.progarchives.com/artistAddVideo.asp?id=450

1) Paste the URL - works
2) Click "Load Video Information" - works
3) Click "Submit/Add this video" - fails!

Error message is:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0006'

Overflow: 'Cint'

/PostAddMedia.asp, line 31

^ You joined the site about five months too late to be able to add videos. I joined just one month too late lol!

This is a well-known bug which seems to affect members whose profile ID number is above a certain threshold. Anyone who joined the site before late May / early June 2011 can use this facility without a problem, any one who joined later than this unfortunately can't.

There is a dedicated thread for posting videos that you would like adding to an artist's page at: %20" rel="nofollow - https://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=111840 , though someone who is able to use the 'add videos' facility will almost certainly spot your request here and carry out the addition for you.

^^
These ones added:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QD_X7RGjbmE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJcbbXoaqQQ

I couldn't add the second from the list, i.e. https://www.progarchives.com/artistAddVideo.asp?id=450
because "Unable to parse Video ID/URL" error occurs.

And please for adding videos use in future the thread, mentioned by yam yam: https://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=111840&PN=5

Greg has turned off the WYSIWYG post editor for all users due to the problem with injected code, so now you have to add hyperlinks the long-handed way. See https://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=132330&PID=6183095#6183095" rel="nofollow - this post (and some earlier ones in the thread).
