It's still there. Why? It's on the home page. You mean you can't find it by searching YouTube?

Btw please consolidate your threads. Don't start a new thread for every little question and issue please. Otherwise you fill up the Topics page with tons of trivial questions.

I have been getting an message that says "This video is unavailable" instead of seeing the video on the homepage.

I'm getting the same thing. It says sign in to see video. When I sign in it says the video is private. Winston, is this your video or someone else's?

It could be that the video is unlisted, and recently YouTube said all unlisted videos will be set to private that are a certain age or uploaded a few years ago. I'll check the settings. It is an intro video made by JamesBond.

Ok I fixed it. It was marked private so I set it to unlisted. Now it should play for everyone. Try again.

YouTube automatically made older videos that were unlisted into private videos, to comply with some law or technicality. That's why that happened.

Btw, why were you trying to watch that video Tsar? Didn't you see it before already? That video has been around for a long time.

I didn't watch it for about five years. I've been around awhile. Sometimes I like to rewatch older things I haven't seen in awhile.

I didn't know that YouTube automatically does that.
