What type of video are we talking about, have you got a link to a thread with an example of this problem?

Well, for some reason the video wouldn't load for me...but I'm assuming before you uploaded the video it looked fine? If so, it's being cropped and resized for ATS media. There's not really much you can do, except try to make sure your videos are the correct aspect ratio for ATS Media. I think they need to be 4:3 but I'm not sure. It's a little bit beyond my scope of knowledge, and I've never actually uploaded a video to ATS Media, perhaps if you U2U a mod, you'll get more information.

Thank you CHA0S.

'wish I had found this thread before stumbling around the media portal for 1/2hr trying to upload an avatar ;-) haa

I'd appreciate if someone would clear up a few items; apologies if OT:
- what's the purpose of/where is the "mini profile"?
- there's no link to pics or vids from profiles, so how do you know he/she has any?
- no links to pics on the media portal, so again - how do you know what's being shared?
- I guess I'm just not understanding the purpose of the media portal, separate profiles, separate forums etc. Maybe I just haven't found the integration yet. Between ATS, BTS, media etc - how many other sub forums are there/what else I'm missing?

As far as the intro video, I thought it was missing/moved.

Thanks!

The "mini profile" refers to the stuff to the left of posts when you're signed into ATS - the username, any titles, your avatar, etc.

There are actually links to pics on the media portal, it's just not easy to get them. If you go to the media portal, go to members, hit "toggle search options", search by membername for whoever's pictures you're looking for, go to their media portal profile, and choose "picture gallery" you can find them.

From what I've seen, they're planning to improve the integration (at least of ATS/BTS) when the new design that SkepticOverlord is working on gets launched. I'm hoping the integration of the media site will improve as well.

Thanks for answering those questions.

Yes, I think at least your normal ATS profile and your media profile should get combined...or perhaps even just a link to your media profile in your normal profile so anyone looking at your normal profile can easily go to your media profile and then your gallery if they want to see what pics you have. Otherwise, you do pretty much have to search for the member and do everything you said.

Thank you both, I appreciate it.

They're merging ATS/BTS, but I hope media portal integration will be part of the redesign too. Like you said, at least a link would be nice.

Just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something.
Thanks!

This is an Extremely Helpful Thread to us New Members, and maybe some
veteran members as well. Sincere Thanks for taking your personal time
to not only create it, but to think of us other members as well.

With Gratitude, Wildmanimal

Sorry if I took a little while to reply. It seems you just want a black mini-background color with your avatar appearing once. You seem to already have your avatar set, so just go into the ATS store and remove your mini-background image, and set your mini-background color to black. Any picture you set as your mini-background picture will be repeated, so you either need to use an image that looks good when it's repeated, or just use one color.
