Vlog 239: Trying out the new dtube HD

in life •  7 years ago 


Dtube released a massive new update here.

It now supports HD video!

The project is becoming so big that even though communities are not here yet you can almost say that dtube is making its own community.

You can hear it in the little things, like in the way people introduce themselves.

"Hello, fellow dtubers" or "Good morning dtube" instead of "Hello Steemians" for instance.

The steem blockchain has grown so much since I got here in July 2016. We used to be all Steemians but that might change in the future :)

Projects like dtube are drawing in massive amounts of new users.

And one of the coolest things for me is that dtube can monetize their own platform, not with advertisements and selling of data but with asking a percentage of whatever you or I make with our content.

For me, that's win-win for everyone.

I talk about it more in my vlog.



I am a witness with our developer group @blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.

That is great news @exyle!

I wanted to buy a 4k video camera to improve my video quality of my d.tube videos. Can't wait to test it!

Everyday, there were massive users trying to use Dtube could this be the end of youtube... soon?

I agree with you @elizahfhaye , the more and more days that use YouTube and YouTube rules more difficult, complicated. Therefore they prefer dtube because belom hard apload and develop it

Still looking for that Dtube vote Ex. Pounding in the hours :)

It works quite well!

Do I need expensive gadgetry to make and upload videos on dtube or would the videocam on a smartphone suffice?

No, not really. A smartphone will do.

Thank you @exyle

Hello..

I saw you are an active member of dtube.
We have developed an android application for dtube
I wish to have supporters like you for my application.

You can download this application from playstore using the below link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.steemit.dtube

Also rate the application the high.

Share your opinion the playstore reviews.

Thanks in advance.

Sadly I have no Android phone...good job on development though!

I need to try out dtube soon. Everyday the blockchain expands so big that i feel i'm limiting myself by just staying glued to steemit.

Sir, please, in dtube do we upload the videos directly to the post or we need to generate a link externally before going on dtube?

Sure explore everything the Steem blockchain has to offer! Once you create a post on dtube (upload a video) it will automatically become a post on Steemit.com.

Wow, sounds really simple. I will take it one at time to explore the rest, dlive, dsound, dmania and all. Thanks you so much.

Still no smartphone upload?

Congratulations on your 74 Reputation Mark @exyle. That is a BIG DEAL here !

the thing that i love the most is that eventually people find their way back to the steem blockchain, i talked about it as the multi headed hydra of the blockchain! we are living in wonderful decentralized times! :)

I saw your video! It was great!

you did?! thanks brother. means a lot coming from you. i love your daily vlogs :) cheers!

I'm fine with watching your face everyday in HD, You're fabulous the way you are :D
Finally, they managed to get through the buggy period, that's great news.

LOL! Thanks, man!

Haha, don't worry, your face isn't that bad to look at!

And huge update on DTube, with the added traffic from search engines Steem and DTube will become massive!

I'm especially excited that they've upgraded their encoding setup to GPU now. I had seen some ex-youtubers complain about the slow encoding on Dtube, great to hear that it's going to be a thing of the past.

HD video support is extremely great as well of course!

I used it today and it's very fast.

Excellent post- am so glad to see Dtube growing and becoming better. I remember when it started I couldn't get the videos to load. Dtube will soon give youtube a ran for their money; its only a matter of time. I foresee significant growth of Dtube as more and more people get to know it. Thank you for sharing :)

Bro this kind of platform encourage other users to join them.

Its a big achievement for Dtube to come with HD version.

Now Dtube can compete in market and this win and only win condition.

I am soon starting my Vlog and Dtube will be a very good platform for me to grow.

This is more profitable for Steeminas who will make thier roots strong until other players come to this community.

Bro check my profile picture. We both have same pose profile picture. I take this idea from you. I wish you don't mind .

It's fine man :)

Bro i changed it to my old Photo, when I have 1mm Beard on my face.

Its an amazing start! I absolutely love the platform! unfortunately not competing in the big boy market with such a low bitrate. so far all I see are squares.. many squares... I suggest a different encoding method Bi-linear is awful for fast movement, the screen fills with squares, I suggest Tri-linear or lanczos filtering for an improvement at the cost of extra GPU power per encode unfortunately. I hope I will be able to upload my FPV vids and have them look pristine one day!

I really need to learn how to shoot and edit videos. It can’t be rocket science.

It's not really. I use my iPhone.

I look forward to the day when I notice $100 swings yet alone the really big numbers!!!! That sort of thing is obviously worth getting used to. I'm willing to face the pain! 😁

Interesting to learn about the history of Steemit and your experience when you knew everyone in the new tab. That must have been fun!

Thanks for the encouragement to keep on posting and plugging away each day. 😊

It was fun at the beginning for sure. But the whole ecosystem and development are much better now.

Dtube HD looks good and yes, i like that dtube monetize their own platform with asking a percentage of whatever we make, will really help in organic growth.

Nice Post. Thanks you for this information!

steemit has a little ways to go but the steemit platform is the way forward

I have not upload video with dtube before but my next video will be on it. Am just reading today's post, then I noticed your reputation has clicked 74 ☺, congrat man!!

Thanks for sharing @exyle

Brilliant! I always rendered the videos in Low quality so that it ran smoothly in Dtube. Now will give it a try. Thanks mate!

Mark @exyle I have not done a DTube Video as of yet but I think that is all about to change soon. I cannot ignore it any longer and now in HD it is time to start UP loading content there..................

The Dtube project in a few years could easily surpass youtube, but, if the acceptance of blockchain and cryptocurrencies continues to grow as it has been until now... And I think it will succeed.

Greetings and a hug my friend @exyle

wow nice video friend and it's great to see that dtube implement some much needed stuff and with the induction of 720p now we able to see hd result and i observe that the video's are loading and playing even smoother and faster then before, so no doubt dtube going ahead from youtube because new user's will get more earning opportunities in dtube rather than youtube and i won't wonder if dtube beat youtube in near future, thanks for updating us regarding dtube friend and wish you a fantastic week ahead, Stay blessed

They also have 240p now which is great for people with low bandwidth! Great video! I wonder if Youtube is failing or something. They took away a lot of earnings and they also took away their creator studio that I used to used to combine my videos together.

When your young you are eager and hungry. As you get older and more refined in your career you tend to want to work smarter not harder.

I saw that you have reached a point to where you told your clients you don't have time to work on their projects anymore. I'm almost there but not quite...

Guess the false sense of stability of a regular paycheck tends to force us not to take risks.

Steemit always gets better and with the invasion of dtube we can testify to that but I have a question and I need answers please!!
I tried uploading a video on dtube with my mobile phone and it was unsuccessful. Then I tried to upload the video with the computer and it was uploaded.
Now my question is this, can't mobile phones be used to upload video on dtube or do you think it was my network connection ??
Please I need an answer, thanks.

woawwww!!!!
"It now supports HD video!"
awesome...i seems as a good news for all @steemians..

Wow!! It looks really good and the video actually loaded!! I'm never sure if it's my connection or that DTube just isn't working. But this video started up right away!!

it don't work for me i am not liking it we can't even watch the video gets stucked in the middle even in normal

I have seen that Dtube is a great project, I have never shared a video there. But I would like to do it soon! Greetings.

I just started dtube a while too. It's like a youtube also :)

I kinda have to get used to it

@exyle,
Wow that would be a huge news and I think DTube will be the main competitor of YouTube now! This is another huge success story of STEEM blockchain as well! Thanks for sharing this useful update with us!

Cheers~

good work my friend, good luck always and long life, please visit my blog at all times, I really need help from you my friend

DTube is really taking the edge and exploiting Youtube problems, with this new update, DTubers will start to be a real thing, and massively change our way around this blockchain.

The future is bright for all of us, that I still consider early adopters, hard work to get a small recognition, for now, and when the majority of people arrive we will have a significant influence in this platforms.

ONE MORE TIME!!!.jpg

Wow.
What a great news, It is creating a wonderful platform day by day
😐😐😐

I like your video
I can resteemed @exyle

Great article you gat here! Is high time l try dtube

Saw the dtube traffic analysis it has gone way beyond hopefully it will be giving epic experience to all : )

Nice post

Glad to see a project being successful on a successful platform =)

That sure is great and in the coming days it sure is gonna be great :)

For what I can remember, @exyle has been here since the begining and he has been posting here very timely consistently

Steem is really getting big, input can now come from various points and its all the better. With d tube allowing HD videos would give room for more quality contents.

Dtube and Dlive are kind of alternative to YouTube.
Do you think Google will remain silent and let others to take a piece of their cake?
Thanks.

This update will attract even more video creators on DTube. It is cool

I think you look fantastic in HD 😊. I upvoted although that doesn’t mean much since I have only been in DTube for less than a week. I’m excited about the HD and one step closer to crushing YouTube.

The funny thing is - when the price drops I buy - everytime xD

plz guys resteem for my video plz https://d.tube/v/apkmirror/ljvf3rxd

Terrific update and thanks for posting @exyle!

And I so agree with you that monetizing our own platform via % is far superior than relying on ads... And with YouTube demon-itizing (intentional word break...) more and more channels and vids for whatever they feel like... who needs them?

Personally, a while back I spent hours trying to post a low res video and the DTube system was sluggish and kept returning weird error messages... Honestly wanted to throw in the towel. I ended up starting a new account and got the hang of things. And now with HD it should quickly gain even more attention.

YouTube is going DOWN!!!!

DTube works for me too, but what we do with the issues of it? First I posted on Dtube, but after a short while I coudn t upload anymore, I tried anything, but stil not working.... 😣

Yes, it seems the development of ways to earn Steem will keep platforms like Steemit and Dtube growing for quite some time. It really only seems to be a matter of time before crypto backed social media overpowers conventional social media platforms. And lets face it. The 800 Lbs elephant in the room no one is talking about is a Steem powered version of Facebook. Hasn't quite happened in the way Facebook did yet. Busy is interesting, but it's really just another portal into your blog. But as far as listing profiles and sharing between actual friend and people you meet daily, there i a lot of room on the internet for a crypto-based Facebook style social media site.

Thank you for this encouraging forecast of the future, much appreciation enjoy a lovely day

Still looking for that Dtube vote Ex. Pounding in the hours :)
All good though as anything made on an upload is a complete bonus anyway.
Glad to hear it. Dtube and HD all the way.:)
