        Hey Phil,

        Which one is the one from Wistia? Do you have a link?

        Does that one automatically submit the video sitemap on Google Webmaster tools?

          Im afraid i haven't yet found one that is remotely good outside of Wistia (but that's paid).

          I'd suggest using excel to put together the elements and then turn the output into plain text - shouldn't be too painstaking, but you will need some element of manual input - i.e. defining the URL, content location and thumbnail location at a minimum.

              Hi,

              Thanks for the suggestion - however the tool was created in 2007 and there's a note on the webpage saying that it is out of date.

              Karen

                  My wistia videos are not being index by Google. Does anyone know what can be happening?

                  I have the wistia site map on my robots.txt file and I also manually submit the site map to google. It shows that my videos were submitted successfully but they are not being indexed.  Thanks

                  YouTube Video Transcript misinterpreting audio as a swear word and putting in transcript

                  Hi I've just noticed a video uploaded to a clients youtube channel is misinterpreting a spoken word as a swear word, the F word :), will this have negative connotations ? could it result in video being considered 'adult content' ?? Any idea how to get this changed, should i report/flag it or will that likely make matters worse ? Or YT tech support email (chance would be a fine thing) ? Also how do you set a video as the channel trailer ? (i cant find any option to do this) Cheers Dan

                  Videos - Host on our Site or YouTube or Both

                  Hi We are redesigning our site and going to post how to videos on some of our product pages.
                  For SEO purposes I want to post the videos on our site with a video transcription either self hosting or through Wistia. Can we also post the same videos on YouTube or is that duplicate content and will we get hurt somehow? Thanks.

                  Best Video Sitemap plugin for wordpress? And do I need both a video sitemap and a normal one?

                  Hi all, I currently use the Google XML Sitemaps plugin on my wordpress site. But we've recently began adding (self-hosted) videos that we've been careful to markup with the relevant schema. However, there's a couple of things I don't understand and am hoping someone could help: Do we need a separate video sitemap that either works alongside Google XML Sitemaps or replaces it? If we do need a video sitemap, what's the best video site map to get? (we are using the Thesis theme so can't use the Yoast one unfortunately as they don't play nice together...) Thanks for your help! Andrew

                  YouTube Video Transcription

                  Hello there! I'm wondering if there is any legalities involved with transcribing a video on YouTube and posting the transcription on a site that does not have the rights to the video while sourcing the video and giving credit.
