B-17 Bomb Run

[Misterg97]

Hope this works .. it's from an 8mm taken in 1944, with the target of Brux, Czechoslovakia.

Have a few more if this one is a go.

It worked.

Doesn't run for me - apparently Photobucket is refusing to play YOUR video because MY storage is full. I get an "Account Restricted" pop-up with no button to close it.

Not your problem - just complaining...

[Adam Kline]

Mine doesn't work either. Nothing but add pops and then the video plays intermittently. Photobucket is lousy.

Is there a better way to post it ... this old vet is not to swift with computers ...

I have some more taken on a B-17 mission along with a few others.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Worked good for me.

First, Misterg97, thank you for sharing those home videos, we really appreciate it!

Second, I would highly recommend you move to a different video hosting site. I would try either youtube or vimeo. They both can host up to Ultra High Definition video files which greatly improves the look of videos. I realize that your original video files are probably in Standard Definition, but the photobucket server is down-rezzing the resolution on your video and as a consequence it is very pixelated and doesn't look good at all. This is not your fault. By going to a higher resolution, your videos files will not be compressed and can look like the original raw video files if you choose.

There is plenty of help on-line on how to upload videos to youtube or vimeo. It's super easy and anyone can do it. Trust me, it will make your videos look 10 times better and also get out to a wider audience, if that is your goal.

Hope that helps!

I used Google Chrome if that is of any assistance at all?

[garbs]

Not sure why, but it ran fine when I launched WIX from Google Chrome. It just doesn't run with Safari as the browser. I have no idea how the browser could trigger a fault in Photobucket...guess that's one of the many reasons I'm not in IT.

Thanks for the tip!
