youtube question

[Meee]

not sure where these go. Anyway
When I upload a movie, is there any lag between uploading and when tags start working? Anything like that? I know there's a time when youtube converts the file to their format whatever, but even after that passed I tried various combinations of words from tags and they don't work. Even a single word (which apparently doesn't appear in any other movie ^^) doesn't work.

hm i would say maybe the tags might be too common but, best bet is tell us how you tagged exactly, like did you put commas, or just spaces in the words etc.

words and spaces, like:
word1 word2 word3 word4

too common? so if a word is too common it won't appear at all? that wouldn't make much sense imo, besides I doubt it's the case

Depending on site traffic, changes to video information can take 8 hours or more to show up in the search index after they've been uploaded, changed, or removed. This includes changes to tags, ratings, views, and comments. Please be patient -- the video will show in the search index shortly. To bypass this time, you may want to send your friends the link of the video via email or private message.

There is your answer!

just as I thought the key is patience

It works now, but for some reason I don't see the still (minature) when searching by tags in FF, works in IE. I'll try it on some other comp to confirm later.
EDIT: works fine here!
