The Amaizing story of a home video - Off-topic

Last Friday (Oct 3) I was in the office and someone play in his PC the Village People's YMCA song. So I grab my builders helmet and start dancing doing silly things... very common on me I must say.
A collegue grab his Nokia and record a video of me dancing with the helmet while YMCA sounds in the background.
A very very silly video. But men... I like doing this things on videos so I asked my collegue to send me the video and I place it in my YouTube account. Everyone laught.
The Saturday I received a email in english from a company called SPORPIO MUSIC SA (S.A. usually is used in spanishs limited companies). The email told me that I was violating the copyright rights of Village People owned by SCORPIO MUSIC SA and a lot of warnings and "I will sue you" stuff.
Belive me... I thought It was a joke or something so I answer with something similar to "get lost". As a matter of fact I thought the message was sent to me due to the joke I place in the name of the video... a difficult to translate joke about Village People sexual preferences. Nothing rude belive me.
Well this monday I received a email from Youtube telling me that they blocked the video under the request of SCORPIO MUSIC SA. So I deleted the video.
I'm officialy suprised... I'm more surprised than hungry...
Here I enclose the SCORPIO MUSIC SA warning email and the Youtube one (the second one in spanish).
Beg your pardon about my english... is not my mother-language.

Hi tejedor1967,
We hope you're well and, by way of introduction, Web Sheriff represents Scorpio Digital, Can’t Stop Productions and The Village People in relation to the administration and protection of their on-line rights.
We’re writing to you in respect of your Village People related clip ... .. you might not be aware that, in order to synchronize your footage with The Village People’s music and recordings - and assuming that you are not re-arranging or adapting The Village People’s songs – you actually require a synchronization license from Can’t Stop’s and Scorpio’s music publishers and record distributors, which, unfortunately, is more complicated than you might imagine.
That being said - and having secured special, fan exemptions / automatic, copyright clearances - we are very happy to be able to inform you that, subject simply to providing an industry standard, courtesy credit, we shall now be able to provide you with direct permission to keep your Village People clip on YouTube (and, indeed, any other clips featuring The Village People’s music and background recordings, provided, again, that the lyrics and arrangements are not changed - as this would require yet further clearances and, of course, the consent of the authors themselves). The text of the credit should simply say "Copyright recordings, music and lyrics reproduced by kind permission of Can’t Stop Productions and Scorpio Digital – for original, exclusive performances by The Village People, check-out the official channel at http://uk.youtube.com/user/scorpiodigital" and this should be prominently displayed at the very beginning of your description of the clip.
We are writing to you directly, as a fan, in order that your account does not get suspended or terminated by YouTube. Also, this permission is conditional / revocable, so we would kindly ask you to ensure that your clip and the accompanying wording is not rude or obscene and that it does not infringe the authors’ moral rights in their music and lyrics.
For the avoidance of doubt, this permission ONLY applies to the use of The Village People’s music in conjunction with your own, appropriate footage and any use of original recordings must be background ONLY and NOT overdubbed. NO permission shall be granted for the use of Can’t Stop or Scorpio copyright footage or audio or footage / audio that actually features The Village People.
We'll look forward to hearing from you should you have any queries and, meanwhile, many thanks for understanding and respecting the artist's wishes. For your info, up-to-the-minute news on The Village People is, of course, available on http://www.officialvillagepeople.com and http://www.scorpiomusic.fr . We’re also pleased to announce that an increasing archive of exclusive film footage of Village People performances has now been made available for fans on Scorpio Digital’s official YouTube channel at http://uk.youtube.com/user/scorpiodigital .

Hahah that's hilarious, I can't believe they'd bother with something as stupid as dancing to the music. It's ridiculous how uptight YouTube is getting as well.

Listen I'm far more amazed that angry. It was soooo weird!!!!
P.S.: I type hungry instead angry in my previous note. Hahahaha... is time to dinner here in Spain now... Hahaha

Why can't a millionaire get one of these and fight them under the Fair Use Act.
Fair Use
I'm sure it could be argued that this was Fair Use. Your making fun of it and not making money off of it. When will these companies learn that when they pull this crap it makes people less likely to buy their music. Just silly rubbish I say!
This sounds like what happened to someone else on a message board I frequent. They were being critical of a religion and used a 2 second clip from a documentary about that religion and was threated with a suit by the director of the documentary himself! Meanwhile clips showing this religion in a good light that used much more footage were staying on youtube.

Wow that's crazy! I made a vid about a year ago with a song dubbed over, almost posted it online, but was afraid of these types of matters. Glad I didn't !

no kidding half the links on youtube now adays say this video has been removed please f*** an armadillo now..... it really pisses me off

- Pocket PC (WM Pro) seulement pour l'instant
Je le mettrai à disposition d'ici peu, le temps de finir les fonctions basiques, mais en attendant, je voulais votre opinion, sur les options necessaires pour que cet utilitaire vous soit aussi utile pour vous autant que pour moi.
Donc si vous avez des idées que je pourrais integrer, n'hesiter pas à les partager.
Merci
EDIT TRANSLATION :

Thanks
Sorry for my English but THIS IS AN ENGLISH SITE. I know you French think you are special but you really aren't. You can start your own French developers site if you care to.
ok, you dont need to be insulting or aggressive toward anyone like you are doing...
As far as i know, foreign language is not prohibited on this site. If you cant read it then just pass your way and ignore it, no harm will be done to you or your family !
Peace
What Kimtyson was trying to say is, this forum's language is English, they just came off a little harsh.
Hey if it is Paris only cool. But if you wish to keep your Post in French, Please post an English Translation.
This tool could be very interesting for Parisians
I'm waiting for it!
Can't wait to try this one out.
Is it coming anuy time soon ?
Good news for French Guys

"Sorry for non french users, this is a Paris specific utility "
this post was designed specificly to HELP people in and around paris. why would you take offence after reading that to find that the rest of the post was in french?
merci guigui42...... from a not so xenophobic englishman
as an english speaking german living in Paris with just some few french words in my language skills... love to have this application .
And I always thought the internet is truely global and not english only ... maybe I am wrong. Plus I still enjoy the indonesian conversation in garmin's tread .. but I guess this is all wrong to ?
Heeee . come on guys. Be a bit more flexible and motivate this guy who offered to do some for all .. even if you need to life in Paris to benefit from it

Hi guigui42,
this is very cool idea, although I do not need as I am not living in France.
However, if you need help to translate your software (if you plan on adding multilanguage, of course!), I'll be happy to give you a hand!
Good luck and have fun programming .
@ guigui42
1) It is a great idea would love to use it (tell me if you need beta test help)
2) as Paris is a multi-lingual and Velib is used a lot by tourists as well , maybe a french / english version would be good
3) a integartion in google maps would be mega cool, like find next Velib station and show free bikes
4) may you can integrate a minute tracking of bike usage to give a payment statistic with a simple start / stop timer ?
just some quick ideas

HTC TyTN II Kaiser change imei

Hola gente del foro soy de argentina.
Me compre un HTC TyTN II Kaiser el cual ya esta liberado, funciona con las empresas CLARO y con PERSONAL, pero con MOVISTAR NO!!! es porque el imei esta NEGADO o sea esta en una base negativa y por eso necesito cambiarle el imei. Yo se que es ilegal camiar el imei pero sino el equipo me queda obsoleto. Estuve buscando información pero no encontré nada que resultara. Si alguno me podría guiar o recomendarme algún programa estaría agradecido, muchas gracias saludos para todos.

first of all please adhere to forum policies and post in english. Secondly i believe it is illegal to try and change the imei number of a phone if thats what you are trying to do.
If a translation is not available i will close this thread in a day.
Translation from Spanish:
Hello people of the forum, I am of Argentina. I bought myself a HTC TyTN II Kaiser which is already unlocked, functions with the CLEAR businesses and with PERSONNEL, but not with MOVISTAR!!! Is it because the imei this DENIED that is to say this in a negative way, and therefore I need to change him the imei. I himself hear that is illegal to change the imei, but the law may be obsolete. I was seeking information but I did not find anything that resulted. If some he would be able me to guide or to recommend me some program would be grateful, many thanks greetings for all.

The law is not "obsolete" in 90% of the world, and it is very much illegal to change the IMEI of a cellular device. The reason it is saying "DENIED ACCESS" is because it has most likely been entered into the database as a stolen telephone. You are probably in posession of stolen property, whether you were a knowing accomplace or not matters not in the eyes of the law. Posession of stolen property is posession of stolen property. In the United States, stolen merchendise exceeding $500 in value is considered grand larceny. Grand larceny class B felony. Also in the United States, chaning the IMEI of a cellular unit is a Class C felony, and defrauding a public utility is a class C or B felony, depending on how much service you illegitimatly obtained.
kaiser change imei
maybe you have the the reason, is illegal, but when you unlock the phone bands, it's illegal, and when you change the rom it's illegal too, At least in my country, why do you can't help people with problems in their devices, The cellular operators have a double morality, accuse you for modifying a device that already you paid and it is supposed that it is yours, but when you protest for the service they do not notice you but your if you have to expire with a ridiculous contract on your telephone, which I repeat it is supposed that it is yours. please help Geniuses, The thieves also have the tools, but some of us are not so brilliant

Simple reason? because we HATE THEIFS. I just had a kaiser stolen that i was shipping to a friend. Should its IMEI be able to be unblocked or changed? I think NOT.
I thank god all the genius people here refuse to help theifs.
kaiser change imei
Sorry, but are you Ingenuous?, they have the tools and the Knowledge enought, it's a bussines, in all world but there're many people that we have problems with our devices, I have lost a lot of money, with devices Unstable or defective, when you lost the device U call the operator for lock, But you know that is only for a few hours. maybe you have the reason again, but my mobile phone isn't stolen but i have problems with the imei, you have the power in your hands, You are those that they know, and the knowledge is ALL on the world. sorry for lost your time, Because now I belong to one more of the thieves of mobiles according to you
Man this is hard to read..
No one here knows how to change the IMEI number to your phone.. plain and simple.
whatta dumb thread... ban + lock imho.
Shame on me I have a stolen or lost phone
So I have a stolen phone..Why do you care..Send me a link on where to find a imei changer. My phone is blacklisted and I know I can still make it work just need a little help here please.
Ah..............because many people here have had phones stolen, and many more people here will as long as there is a market for them from people like you.
Keep talking like that and it will be bansvilles after only 3 posts. A record ?
Thread's going nowhere and changing IEMI is not only illegal, but very had.

Windows Phone 7, total disappointment.

Greetings.
I have an HD7. I bought so many illusions, but it was a total disappointment. It moves very fast, this is perfect. But Microsoft forgot important details. File Explorer does not exist, nor Phone Search, and the option to synchronize the daily papers went completely ignored, they forgot it. I think only options were based on multimedia and forgot the professional market. The option is Mobile Device Center is very important for those who work daily editing Word documents. I hope Microsoft does something with these situations, for music, photos and videos is not going to give them hope to push this operating system. Zune also use our device to synchronize limited. I think back to my HD2 if not get a solution with my HD7.
If anyone knows a solution to my problem please post it.
Saludos.
Tengo un HD7. Lo compre con tantas ilusiones, pero ha sido una decepción total. Se mueve muy rápido, eso está perfecto. Pero Microsoft se olvidó de detalles importantes. No existe File Explorer, tampoco Phone Search, y la opción de sincronizar diariamente documentos la pasaron totalmente por alto, se olvidaron de ella. Creo que solo se basaron en opciones multimedia y se olvidaron del mercado profesional. La opción se Mobile Device Center es muy importante para los que trabajamos modificando diariamente documentos de Word. Espero que Microsoft haga algo con estas situaciones, pues música, foto y videos no le va a dar el empuje que ellos esperan con este sistema operativo. También el uso de Zune para sincronizar limita nuestro dispositivo. Creo que volveré a mi HD2 si no consigo una solución con mi HD7.
Si alguien conoce alguna solución a mis problemas favor de postearla.
office mobile is on the phone so I don't understand why you can't edit word documents...
Yes this phone is very mutlimedia heavy, it's obvious that microsoft is pushing this first towards the general market to try and reclaim some market share. That has been pretty obvious from MWC earlier this year.
Your post does not make any sense.
- The Office HUB is present by default in WP7 and you can see/edit Office documents
- Zune is the best music / video management software on the WP platform
Yes Microsoft has clearly targeted the general population with this release, this is not a surprise, it has been communicated wildly in the previous months so unless you live on a desert island and you bought the phone without reading a line about it or even coming here and see everybody's rant at the future OS, there is no way you could not know.
for me the hardware was much more of a dealbreaker than the OS. I actually really like WP7 but the HD7 has a subpar camera with a terrible camera button. The bezel was coming away from the side on my phone. Also i got very spotty signal.
On the OS side, there is no reason to slide to unlock and then press accept to answer a call, that always annoyed me.
I have done the same mistake as you
I bought the HD7 with WP7 on it, but without read any information about the new os before.
I was very disappointed, about this minimal os and no or a few administrator functions, as i realized that. And i dont believe that Microsoft leave their new politic line in future, that other developer could write some system tools we need.
Before i used a HTC Blackstone with installed MN6.5 and i ve thought that WP7 was only new released to make it faster and with some new functions or updates, so as the new OS for PC Windows7.
But they deliver a "dumb user device"
No Explorer, no other Browser possible, no static ip, not much setting options, and so on, and so on.
For me an useless PocketPC!! Its a Multimedia Player with an integrated Telephone.
The Hardware from HTC is very nice, but i hope now for an imminent Jailbreak to use more soft, or a possibility to update the rom with old WindowsMobile6.5.
I wrote my opinion to the german Microsoft Support Forum too, that they have a negative feedback from an advanced user.
You all should do it too, that they notice the Dissatisfied!!!

gcmobile
You bought a phone without research and are now disappointed that it does exactly what is said it would do?
A matter of weeks after launch you complain it hasnt got the tweeks / feature unlocks and so on of a mature OS? Can't think why.... can you?
Why be an early adopter if you cant live with what that entails... My HD7 is vastly nicer and more reliable than either my previous Galaxy S and the iPhone 3g I had before.
They both got better with age - so will WP7 and HD7.
I like it...i dislike it.....i like it .......i dislike it.......
It seems to me that nowdays people starts new threads only for let us know how much they love or hate their new toy.....missing a file explorer ,want a white theme and so on.......ok ,i say this is pretty nice but ,please, dont start any useless flame ,be polite, i won't close another thread for that reason.
Cheers.

Yeah other than giving MS and majority of it's users a headache the WM5, 6 and 6.5 also gave iPhone and Android a HUGE market share cause no one wanted to use the buggy/crappy/lag-fest WM except a few nerds that also had to install 10,000 different ROMS just to make their WM phones into something half-decent. Thank God MS didn't listen to you when developing their OS or we'd still be stuck with windows 3.1. If you're happy with Galaxy S then why are you trolling here? The mods need to close these threads as it's pretty obvious that whenever someone makes a "WP7 is crap!" flame bait thread, the android fan boys jump in.

considering regular users outnumber power users about 100 to 1, I doubt they really care if you like their phone. They didn't make it with power users in mind, that was winmo 6 and you see how well that did. You can keep the buggy, always needs a custom ROM hd2. I'll keep a phone that hasn't needed but 1 soft reset in a week that is just smooth!!!

I am also amazed about these utterly useless threads.
- WP7 was never intended for "power users" but more for the general public as was already mentioned.
- WP7 OS will grow over time, (as did the iphone OS) and will then include more features.
- If you buy something new, READ UP ON IT FIRST.
@Mods: can someone not simply create a "controlled" voting thread with who likes what where people can just moan and complain so amount of these threads can be cut down?
I for one do NOT care if someone likes or dislikes his phone and am getting tired of sifting through the threads to find the ones i really want to read.
Thanks!
Nice idea pencilcase,
i will do a thread like you said this evening and i will do some clean around.

Seems like what we have here is something off the WP7 commercial.
"Now I could spent more time with her, then spending more time with myself"
HD7 rocks!!!
Greetings.
When you create the post, never thought I would get much response. It was only my opinion and an outlet. I think the HD7 is a great team. Just that Microsoft is slipping in File Explorer it is extremely important in any operating system. Also, who does not like to create your ringtone and use them to your contacts, second failure of WP7.
HD2 and I had a stolen. I thought it best to buy the latest in the market because the cost of both phones at full price is the same. They spoke of the speed of HD7, personalization, etc. But in any forum which was spoken between the operating system that lacked these important details. We can only wait to see if the release of software fixes these issues.
Sorry for those who are uncomfortable with my comments, but I know I'm not the only one who has encountered this when having the equipment in their hands. Many Blessings to all.
Saludos.
Cuando cree el post, nunca pensé que recibiría tanteas respuestas. Solo fue mi opinión y un desahogo. Creo que el HD7 es un gran equipo. Solo que a Microsoft se le escapo en File Explorer que es sumamente importante en cualquier sistema operativo. También, a quien no le gusta crear sus ringtone y usarlos para sus contactos, segunda falla de WP7.
Tenía un HD2 y me lo robaron. Pensé que lo mejor era comprar lo más reciente en el mercado, pues el costo de ambos teléfonos a precio regular es el mismo. Se hablaba de la rapidez de HD7, de la personalización, etc. Pero en ningún foro de los que entre se hablaba de que este sistema operativo carecía de estos detalles tan importantes. Solo nos queda esperar para ver si con la liberación de software se arreglan estos asuntos.
Disculpen aquellos que se incomodaron con mis comentarios, pero sé que no soy el único que se ha encontrado con esto al momento de tener el equipo en sus manos. Muchas Bendiciones para todos.

Problem with HTC Tilt 8925 AT&T

Greetings friends;
I need of the help you; I have bought this cellphone HTC Tilt 8925 AT&T and fallow the steps to charger the bettery for 8 hours and when I turned on appeared this screen (image attached); tried to connect on PC and directly on outlet power but the problem persisted; I have sent the device to the seller and he told me that replaced the battery and the cellphone worked; 2 days ago received again the cellphone and did the charger but only appear this screen (image attached). I did a video and put on youtube, as I can't to put link in this moment you can see the link on (image attached) please help me.
The seller said this about the video and problem: From what I can see, it is my best guess that the proper voltage/amps are not getting to the phone. The phone took so long to get to you this time, it could be that the battery is drained beyond being charged. For the phone to function properly, the battery must be in, not just the phone plugged in without the battery. At this point, my only other guess is that the charger may not be working properly. Is it possible for you to insert the battery and allow the phone to charge over night in your car with the car charger we supplied? If you do that and it turns out to work, then obviously there is something wrong with the AC charger. You mentioned the USB plug, but I don't know for sure if the phone charges while plugged into USB.
I disagree with him and I answered this: The eletric power it's all or nothing; you can see the cellphone turn on even with the battery or using the outlet or USB from the computer; if the power do not works, the device did not turn on, but the device turn on and only can see that screen, my opinion is that there is a software problem cellphone. I have another HTC cellphone and used this charger that comes with the new cellphone and that you saw on youtube video and my old HTC cellphone turn on perfectly without battery.
I NEED OF HELP OF YOU: THIS PROBLEM IS IT BATTERY OR SOFTWARE OF THE CELLPHONE?? I THINK THAT IS NOT THE BATTERY. ANY SUGGESTION IT'S WELLCOME.
THANKS AND PLEASE HELP ME.
BEST REGARDS
TIAGO
Guys, nobody help me??!!! :-(
Sorry pal, I missed this one.
From the name and story, I guess you're brazilian too. In short, if you bought it on a certain pseudo-free "auction" site (not eBay), I have bad news for you: take your money back and/or negative the seller straight ahead.
While voltage and amperage can indeed effect normal operation, it whouldn't be the case for a device that was made *for* standard USB voltages (which don't vary). Also, any Kaiser will boot with only power and no battery connected.
While it's still possible to recover from this state (which, from the "serial" down below the screen, I judge it's a result from bad ROM flashing, to say the least), it's not simple, nor something you should do if the reseller insists that the device is in good shape.
Besides, it's the 20th year of the brazilian CDC and any seller should know it's your right to ask for your money back, as will know any lawyer, judge, and jury. "Auction" sites also know it very well and it's therefore seller's choice of what path to follow.
By the way, juridical fines are quite heavy on the loser side, these days.
*Obs.: sorry for not replying in portuguese, forum rules ask for a translation anyway and it's too much text right here.
Good luck and make your rights prevail!

Hi Tulio; I live in Brasil too; Thanks a lot for your answer; I bought this cellphone on EBAY and unfortunatelly I can't to open a dispute or get my money back because the time over. I am talking with the seller but him can't to do more thing and suggested that I search a HTC technical assistance to try fix it and him could help me in the costs. But I think that there is not this service here and also the HTC do not make assistance to imported devices. For the your experience is it possible repair this cellphone in some cellphone repair store?? . Any suggestion it's always well come.
Thanks and have a nice week
Regards
Tiago
Não tem problema escrever em português, desde que acompanhe tradução. Agora estou com mais tempo. Pensei que o site era outro, o pessoal costuma ser mais sério no eBay.
A HTC Brasil realmente não dá suporte a aparelhos estrangeiros, e se você não quiser ir atrás do vendedor, pode enviar a alguma assistência independente ou - se estiver disposto a ler muito e botar a mão na massa, dê uma olhada nos dois links abaixo. Só vale avisar: CUIDADO: do mesmo jeito que restaurar, esses procedimentos, se mal-feitos, podem terminar de inutilizar seu aparelho.
O primeiro link é um guia para restaurar da tela tricolor, que provavelmente exigirá a compreensão de vários assuntos listados no segundo link. Em geral, o pessoal aqui responde com "use a busca do fórum", mas como eu já tinha começado a escrever, vai no embalo.
Infelizmente, meu tempo ultimamente está muito curto (nem era para estar escrevendo), então não sei se conseguirei ajudar muito, mas de todo modo vou lhe enviar um e-mail -aliás, melhor retirar teu endereço do post anterior: não é proibido, mas o fórum é público e isso pode te gerar spam e outros inconvenientes. Tente passar dados privados apenas por PM (private message).
É isso. Pense bem, veja os links e decida com calma. Até mais!

wow! I really thought it was another auction site; people on eBay tend to be more serious.
Anyway, there's really this issue with HTC Brazil not officially supporting imported units. if you're not going to chase the seller, you can have it restored on some stores or - if you're willing to do some DIY and a lot of reading, I guess you can restore it with information from this forum. Start by looking at this thread:
Kaiser Stuck at Bootloader
At some point, you'll probably need info contained in this other: [REF] Guides | Tutorials | FAQ's | Stickies | etc. As a rule of thumb, novices are told to search before posting, but as I started writing anyway... And this warning is never in excess: CAUTION - those procedures can brick your phone permanently if done incorrectly.
I don't think I could be of much more assistance because time is really short these days, but these links may already help. I'm also sending an e-mail, but since this is a public access forum, I'll sugest that you remove your e-mail from your last post to avoid spam - this and other private data should be sent only via PM. Just a suggestion, though.
That's it! Read the links, decide carefully. See ya!
