The Amaizing story of a home video

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

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!!!

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!!!

Whether you like it or not, this stock locked down OS just flies!!

oh come on now, you close this one, 5 more will pop up tomorrow from people that throw down 600.00 without reading a review.

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.

Ok fellas, the thread was already created by Dotcomp here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847822
use it for post your thought about wp7 and hd7 but be nice,im going to close this and the other non rlevant threads.

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

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!

[Q] Lg Watch R WIFI

Hello,
Lg Watch R has t-elle really WiFi or not

According our dutch android news site it has.
They mailed LG and asked them the same question.
LG officially mailed and stated that LG G Watch R will get WiFi support.
It's dutch but you can use Google Translate...
http://androidworld.nl/wearables/wifi-smartwatches/

this is pretty much the main thing being talked about in the 5.1.1 thread here - probably best to read through that and track it there.

In France we have just received a putting has in the daytime, of wear, this one does not concern the WiFi then?

I contacted LG Brazil and reported that does not support WiFi .
Who to believe ??

I contacted LGUS today and they would neither confirm nor deny WiFi for the GWR. The online chat rep ended the session by saying that "They would need to contact me later after they did some research to provide me with an accurate answer." I thought for sure that she misunderstood my question and assumed that I was more interested in the 5.1.1 release. If that were the case I could see why support might not be fully up to speed on 5.1.1 and would want to research a little more. After I explained that I was simply interested in the specs (i.e. is it WiFi ready? Does it have an antenna?) she said she understood and reiterated that LG would need time to research. Why in the world would support not have this info immediately at hand? They need time to research the specs for something that's been out for months?
The bottom line is either Phandroid is wrong or LG lied at the initial press conference and the FCC gave out bogus accreditation.

Are the features of what wifi can do really all that important? I understand it's a feature that should be included especially if it was advertized by LG. But for what it does, how often will it be used?

No, I don't think it's really all that important. IMO the whole thing has blown up more because LG won't confirm or deny if WiFi is possible. As I understand it the WiFi would simply allow you to receive notifications if your phone wasn't with you. If I'm wearing the watch my phone is with me so it's really a moot feature to me. I just contacted LGUS because of all the hoopla I read and was curious. The fact that they gave me the runaround just has me all the more curious now.

Maybe the guy from LG Germany can tell us more soon....

Bs. Fcc certifation has also different tests which need an antenna to be performed

A lot of devices use the same antenna for WiFi (802.11n) and Bluetooth since they are on the same frequency.

As you can see, the integrated chip is also WiFi capable, and since the chip is combo (BT+WiFi) there's no problem to use the same BT antenna for WiFi.

Moi qui croyais qu'LG c'était du serieux

So, if I my french is still good enough, LG France confirms the WiFi update.

Confirms once and unconfirmed it once. 1-1 still nothing reliable yet... I wish the update was out!

guys anyone knows when should we expect this damn update? I am going crazy waiting for this s*it to come out ..its like I am awaiting a birth of my child ...

i need this update and I need WiFi just to kid the pundits who say it can't be.

LG Europe confirmed wifi this morning (mail to Jean Luc Rio) so I do not think it answer wrong info at customers So I think wifi is OK for LG-R
