And replaced all YouTube links so they go to our new channel. I've looked over this for a while to ensure I didn't make errors, but because there were so many URL's I did automate this using multiple scripts, so please let me know if you find a problem.
On a semi-related note, the non-YouTube webinars have "Flowplayer" watermarked into them due to the license being for our old domain name. I'll look into this, but it will be solved soon anyway when we move to the new framework and new HTML5 player.
We have reviewed futures.io and determined that it does not need to be changed at this time based on BrightCloud’s url reputation criteria.
It currently has a reputation score of 79 in the BrightCloud Service and available in Database version 4.642.
We are experiencing delays sending some of our response emails, so this notification may be delayed. However most URL change requests was handled on time, usually within 24-48 hours.

@Big Mike, I assume the change was already made by the time the above mail was responded to. The site now shows up as "Reputation: Low Risk" with a green check mark. So we are good!
Here is my email response from BrightCloud:
Hello again -
We have reviewed futures.io and although we did not take your suggestion exactly, we have updated the site with a reputation score of 79. This change is now published in the BrightCloud Service and is available in Database version 4.642.
We are experiencing delays sending some of our response emails, so this notification may be delayed. However most URL change requests was handled on time, usually within 24-48 hours.
Obviously, I use this site every day and gave a lot of feedback for the Beta when that was active. I was only concerned that occasional surfers getting that message rather than it being simply reported offline or in construction would just add more fodder to the army of loonies that still show up at the top of Big Mike Google searches.
Travel Well

I got the same score (40) and this is the first time I clicked on the link. I filled out the form as per Big Mike's request just now. Hopefully they get it changed soon.

Thank you very much for reporting this. This will be the second video I have to replace for unknown reasons, and I am concerned that other videos have the same issue. I mass uploaded over 150 webinars, I haven't had the chance to test all of them to ensure they are working.
It will take me a bit of time to replace this one. In the meantime, I really need everyone's help to spot check all videos on our YouTube channel for sound.
Skip to the last 5 minutes of the video, if it has sound then it is probably OK. The issue seems to be sound disappears for some unknown reason in the two reported cases so far. Please give me the URL's of any additional bad videos.
I have had trouble in the pass with mass uploads to YT having audio issues. Mine were in batches of 20-30 videos and a few ended up with half or no audio.

Those 2 re-uploaded work perfectly fine
Unfortunately I was out almost whole weekend and wasn't around any computer to test the rest of them but no worries I will do it tomorrow (London time).
cheers

I certainly appreciate your help Chris. So far in all three cases, the broken audio -- if existing -- persisted through to the end of the recording. So I think a spot check of the last 5 minutes would be sufficient to detect if the audio problem is present.

@Big Mike, I cannot commit to doing more than a handful or so - but would not want to be duplicating others efforts and ending with naught more. Any way to break up sections for volunteers?

That's truly incredible. You checked all 150+ videos in 30 minutes? That's crazy!
Thanks, I'll get to re-uploading these shortly. I am relieved that only a few more had trouble, I was starting to panic that dozens of them were going to be problematic!
no worries, I'm planning on watching them properly too.
My test was first 5min then 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 and the last 7-5mins so if there was a missing sound in the middle I can somewhat catch that too. That also reminded me of your videos where you were answering forum questions, those are really good - I think these should be included in a beginners material thread or something
cheers

Thanks again Chris. I've re-uploaded these last two remaining videos and replaced all links so they point to the new videos. They are still processing, should be ready in an hour.
No, I just hit an old bookmark, I've deleted it now, I wasn't sure if it was public after you opened the Beta up but I guess it's ok from what you say. Out yesterday and today hence late reply.
I bet you either tried or don't have time to select fieldname, tablename, val from (select on db schema listing all tables etc) etc - basically looking up 'BMT' in the whole DB outputting fieldname, source table - this may give an indication where it is

It is not in the database but the filesystem, it's an old mod, not in the usual spot in filesystem. Could be anywhere, and I don't have time to search right now.
just stating Captain Obvious over here - go through files (if not weirdly encrypted) in the same manner (a simple script). But I completely understand effort/time to result ratio when there's another framework coming in.

vvhg has made a NinjaTrader automatic poster for screenshots and text:
There are various overloads to these methods, so you don't need to use all arguments.
The two methods are:
and
The first will post a screenshot of the chart it has been called …
and it's completely understandable in this case, but given the fact that "the new framework" is coming (or at least that's my impression from reading posts) and not knowing the tech stack it's reasonable to assume that current API will change or be disabled - can you correct me here please?
The reason I'm asking is because I would like to prop some plugin allowing to post directly from NT.

All of it will still function to the best of my knowledge. I see that the example code blocks have (formerly BMT) in them, but a quick search/replace will correct that for you.
Take note, this API is not planned to continue to the new framework, since it goes virtually unused by 99.999% of users.
That said, @sam028 is already working on a FIO module to allow posting of screenshots directly to futures.io using the NT8 "share" module, and this functionality will be maintained on the new framework (it doesn't use the API). Perhaps you can collaborate with him to complete that job, and/or start a new separate discussion thread for that.
To be clear, it will be a clipboard style transfer - the API will not be used, you will need to manually paste the content.
Good to know as I will not be producing a version of ChartMinder for NT8.
Current version on the existing API and framework still seems to post fine through your bmt-fio redirect but does the post fail if cookies are cleared and the re-login is enforced. I could issue an interim update with the url's changed if anybody needs it but direct posting never really caught on through any route so I haven't bothered yet.
Cheers

I would have paid to port the API, but since virtually no one uses it, I didn't see the point. We can continue that discussion in the new framework thread:
I have decided to use my commute time to watch as many of the webinars as I can on my tablet on the commute.
However I noticed that many of them are 'Flowplayer' videos and can not be easily downloaded for later viewing on my tablet.
Is there a way to download them to my tablet that I have overlooked?
Or are the old Flowplayer videos on Youtube but I missed seeing them on the BMT channel?
***********
Extra details...
My tablet is wifi only so to watch while commuting I must download the videos while at home to my tablet.
Youtube videos can be done this way but Flowplayer videos only want to play while online.
I've tried the normal plugins to download videos but no success with the Flowplayer ones not on Youtube.
If there is a solution, let me know.
If reloading them to Youtube by the administrators is the only solution, that is way too much to ask so I will just skip those for remote viewing.
