Dateranoth Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 WELLLL SHIT. Looks like it's gonna be hard to make partner unless we really step it up. Don't want the advertising, but I do want the automatic transcoding! DAMNIT .

PeeKnuckle Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Yeah, I saw that in my email today. I'd really like a quality bar, but we'll never get that option since we don't have enough views, or followers. Sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevnvek Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 I already hate it. The redirection notice is incredibly annoying. It has to load the entire page faded out in the background with an inescapable message to redirect over it. Why the hell don't they just make the page only load the message if you can't view the JTV version of the channel normally anymore? And the criteria for those features are pretty ridiculous. They should have a lower requirement for just the transcoding by itself, like 500 to 1000 followers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
