[jonjonchel]

hi roi

[12345ify1000]

I need to put the same anatotioan on every one of my 80 videos!!!! how can I do it so I dont have to do it indivigully??

[scampc]

Hi, can anyone help me? I want to use a set layout for many annotations on some videos I plan to make.Each video will have 20-40 annotations on the outside of the screen to navigate around the videos that are all relevant to the one being watched. I want each video to have the annotations in exactly the same location, is there a way to type in the size and location manually so they can always be in the same place? Some of mine will change every 3-10 seconds too and don't want them to move around

[toontent]

what song, its used on stuff you should know

[kerbubbles1818]

THIS DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE!!!

[arniixD]

watch this video for an example: /watch?v=Ewn5CCJHgfU

Please!! I'm incredibly desperate for views xp. It uses about 200 annotations to create a game and also used as animation at some point. I can answer any question you have, seeing I have way too much free time xd

[hobbohippy2]

@arniixD hey can you add annotations to another persons video? i can see on one video people seem to have done that, it says add text here but i can click on it, and cant seem to add words in it

[deluski2]

[XXXdeniXXX03]

[ylguehtthguackcirtap]

[LiBRa473]

thnx

gr8 help ! =D

[TheSurfaceofTheMoon]

it won't let me let others add annotations D:

The little link thinger at the bottom is missing

[wbcmac2000]

@TheSurfaceofTheMoon me too!

[CJFRANKS7]

Im completely new to this, thanks

[MyMusicPlayground]

love the music!

[Jeiygo]

@werneroi if more people were willing to help out in real life like you did maybe the world wouldn't be so screwed up like it is despite we have ignorant individuals like phantommaster. Thanks again man

[Jeiygo]

@werneroi don't listen to fools like phantomMaster I'm glad you have this helpful video up, I was actually looking for something to help me with annotations because I'm fairly new and I know eventually I'll probably post up videos or something and I might need this, so keep this video up because is great in assisting new people like myself that do not know. Never listen to ignorant people like phantommaster, he's just a troll and that's an understatement.... I support you man...

[InGamer1]

wat? anotations are gonne.

[grybamsne]

now they changed it do you nkow how to do it now?

[Irrelevant402]

I want the person who puts up videos to still have the option to allow others to put their own annotations up. I wish I knew why youtube took that away.

[Jacke9779]

Press ctrl-w to turn off the adds.

[111PAWN]

@Jacke9779 Well,fuck you douchebag.

[WAGTH1]

@111PAWN lol

[Jacke9779]

@111PAWN Haha, chill, dude it was a joke, and it did turn of the annotations didn't it? :p

[111PAWN]

@Jacke9779 Yes,it did close my mozilla tab,but that's allright,better that than ALT+F4 =)

[MrShurikeninja]

your voice must suck you've been keeping it a secret for so long

[rjared]

MY INTERACTIVE CARD TRICK TOOK 40 VIDEOS TO MAKE ONE VIDEO CHECK IT OUT IT IS DOPE!

[dkdj12]

How do you put the annotation in the very end? (where it says "up next")

[bdarchibald14]

talking about how to keep the video going with the sounds....and not have one ahead of the other..

[bdarchibald14]

this is not answering the question just to let you know...

[Robertphoebe]

Roi dont have a fuckin tongue

[carveriscool]

What is with the Up's ad at the beginnig that ends during the middle of it?

[SammysMommy07]

Very entertaining way of describing a simple task! Perfect for what I needed to explain annotations to my client. Thanks! :-)

[Mubeen48]

roi can i add my blog/web page link in video annotation?

[WhimsicalWildflower]

Thanks!! that helps a lot :)

[waspalive]

Had I seen this, I might have refrained from creating my unedited (read amateur) "How to annotate a youtube video" youtube video. Could anyone recommend (preferably open source) video editing software? The ones I tried were not without loss of visual quality and/or loss of display dimensions.

[cenrap58]

On one of my video's there is an explanation mark next to the annotains button on the video player. Do you know how to fix this?

[TheIndoasian]

Hi Roi, you are so cute!!! :x

[Jonzer9]

If you don't want to see peoples annotations on their videos, can you take the videos annotations off or they stay and you cant remove them =P

[Scoreplayas]

@MrSenteno HAHAHA LOL ROFL

[ChristineThePikachu]

how did you do the clickable annotations. tell me

[MrSintendo]

GUM!!?!? ITS JUST GUM?!?!?! WH.. Oh it says "Advertisement: your video will start in 11 seconds." nvm

[09187050087]

your magic is sucks!

[Mrozek93]

AH RLY

[xGirlsWithAttitudex]

[Supergordan64]

Does anybody know how to get the "Auto pause" annotation?

It was avaliable before, but now, I can't seem to find it!

Can somebody please help me out?!

[TURKISHDRAGONBALL]

it would be cool if youtube could upload srt subtitles into the videos

[UnknownBallin]

Can you copy annotations? ...Extract them out of video or something.

[indic4]

how long does it take to fully apdate the annotations on your video ?? .. my boxed-frame-ones still don't show .. hmm

[Doglovr22]

how do u allow other people to add them?

[myvideosinsight]

Ask the user "Annotize", he does it on his channel

[shippou55]

@Doglovr22 Add me to the question, like in Nico

[MLink96]

@Doglovr22

not hard at all XD

[waspalive]

@Doglovr22 At present, you will find a sharing link extended with a annotation token on your annotation tab for your video. You can see one if you watch my "How to annotate a youtube video" youtube video. Sorry, Roi. No spam intended. Just trying to be helpful.

[JoeWazzington]

@Doglovr22 you cant...

[sexybaby21lovely]

great roi

[Set1net]

why you watch this?

[skypar]

i cant use it. . it say your java script is turn off your BTW my flash player are new version)can i setting it back and how tp turn the script back?

[warmastah]

u can turn javascrypt on in the options of ur browser somewhere

[rerevisionist]

There are quite a few copyright-free tunes that youtube allows you to add to your video. All you have to do is find them..... ......... ....

jkeep looking...

try clicking there...

oh, well, there? ...

...

that one?

...

[georgeofnewyork]

it sez that i either hav javascript turned off or i hav da old one, i just installed the new one and it still not workin, how to turn java on?

[scholesy160691]

safee

[Virginityrocks]

I hate annotations... People overuse them and they clutter what you are actually trying to watch. Isn't there a way to automatically disable them so you don't have to manually disable them when watching every video?

[colinroxanduknowit]

yes, on the video your watchnig in the bottom right hand corner there should be a little arrow pointing up, hover over it and then click the option above cc, this will turn them on or off. Hope this helps

[Virginityrocks]

You'd still have to do that with every video you open.

[Brando216]

i follewd the tips and it came with nothen like what your doing just showd me my vid didnt give me that yellow bar thing

[nikobroo]

Nice to meet you Roy! =]

[Apophyllium]

erm... I saw this song which has its lyrics in the annotation.

how can I get the lyrics apart from manually copying it down?

[8MKWeb8]

That song sounds really familiar... What is it?

[TomboyFreddibub]

BONJOUR! lol i aint french

[Brando216]

makes sense what could go wiht a vid on how to make anthons with the guy useing anathons to talk

[zevik140]

Some bastard put an advertise in annotation in all my videos. How the hell he did it if annotations are disabled for users in my videos?

[PhantomMaster]

This isn't exactly rocket science.

[sauyrd]

@PhantomMaster is rocket SURGERY!

[tonychiu24362685]

can the viewers add their annotation on the video(not the original uploader)?

[991woot119]

yes that is possible

[BROFlST]

Oh yeah, because no one knew how to use annotations. Right.

[Landrakis]

is it possible to put a hyperlink as an annotation that when you click it you will be directed somewhere else?

[AllSalesAreFinaI]

[Johan23Volcom]

When i am at my videos ican´t find 'annotations edit'

[dkthemovie]

they changed the way it works,

you can simply go to your video now, and under it you will have the annotation button, when you have annotation edit set to on.

[stormcloud847]

are you stupid and didnt notice that? or are they still not detailed enough for you?

[mrpcclass2]

Hey, what about the pause tool?

I know how to use all annotations, but don't you think you should make a video on how to do that?

[thomosik]

I really love that "Really, click! With your mouse!" :D

[Mcrxwolf]

No sh!t i didnt know haha

[Chibiodd]

YAY!

[havefaith445]

Do I need to download something, because I don't see the options on my videos.

[andreibranescu]

very nice tutorial.

[Sheanie08]

oh i was supposed to actually CLICK on those things ?? hahahah, i feel so stupid now^^'

[CUCProductions]

ok i got an "annotation" problem!! I've put a LOT of annotations in my videos, but right now it says "can't connect with server, pls reload" and i can't put annotations on my vids!! HELP!

[soccman14zx]

dame man good job i was ike wat i actually have to click on one lol

[TheRacingDude]

I think YouTube is having problems with annotations right now. Before I had a lot of trouble just adjusting the text box. Now I can't even start an annotation on the annotation editing page. The video won't even load. it just sits there trying to find the server.

Ken

aka...TheRacingDude

[PeyserConley]

True that. A few days ago I started having problems with resizing the boxes, the box doesn't follow the cursor and I have to drag it around about a minute before I get it right. And whenever I try to use the link boxes, the whole page freezes.

[Trogdorwillrise]

I've been having problems too! Whenever I would try to resize an annotation, it would move a centimeter and crap out until I reclicked it. Uggh, I hope the fix this.

[repentantredbull]

MAN YOU ROCKS.THANKS

[javiermazzaglia]

so, could you tell me the card m fucker!

[scrabalabadingdong63]

your youtube username should be "annotation boy" lol :P

[Pablothe]

what kind of song is that, I like it.

[HeliumCowFilms]

Is it possible to turn annotations off? I want to put one serving as a commentary on my Dirge of the Dead videos, but I want people to watch it through first without the annotations. I've tried re-uploading the videos under a different name but they get deleted for being duplicates.

[MeepingCow]

It must be difficult using annotations to describe and introduce annotations.

I like the interactivity :)
