How come the video I
am playing looks grainy?
Some of the video sources we've used are of lesser quality than
we prefer. We are working on correcting any poor quality issues in
the upcoming months.
The video I am playing stops and
then starts. Why is it playing choppy?
The most common answer to this is the speed of your internet
connection. If you are on a slower connection and/or your connection
resources are currently in use transferring other data
(uploading/downloading), you may experience this problem. Network
congestion can also lead to problems. The fix is simple: be patient
and wait for the video to load more before restarting the video.
Why do some videos play at a
higher level of volume than others?
Many times this is beyond our control. Most are going to be
within an acceptable range of loudness. We are working on
offering videos of a consistent level of quality in the coming
months. Thanks for your patience as we get these issues sorted out.
How can I find out when you post
new videos?
Easy! Watch the News
section @ Sphereofhiphop.com and also join
our newsletters for more updates. You can even get some
exclusive FREE music for being a part of the Sphere of Hip-Hop Store
email list. Check both out!
The video scroll bar does not
always work for me. How do I fix this?
Simply refresh the page the video player is on and it should
work again normally. This is a quirk between web browsers and Flash.
We have seen this problem primarily occurring with the Firefox
browser and rarely with Internet Explorer. Should you experience
errors or trouble with other web browsers, please contact
us.
Where is my favorite artists
video?
We try to maintain a current selection of music videos on
SphereofhiphopTV.com. On a regular basis, we reach out to hundreds
of artists and dozens of record labels for information. We rely on
them to update us in a timely manner when they have news and new
videos. Please make sure your favorite artists know to submit their
videos to SphereofhiphopTV.com!
I've seen a video that I think
should be on your site. How do I recommend it to you?
Please use our contact
us page to send us information on the video. All we need is a
link to the video on Youtube. We'll screen the
video and see if it works for the site.
I have my own video out. How do I
get it posted to SphereofhiphopTV.com?
Please use our contact
us page to send us information on the video. We'll screen the
video and see if it works for the site. Do NOT email us video files.
All emailed videos will be rejected. Use the email contact as a way
to reach out and get our submission information / guidelines. Thanks
for your consideration!
Does SphereofhiphopTV.com do world
premier promotions for new video releases?
We sure do! Please contact us for details on how we can share
you upcoming video release with the many millions of loyal Sphere of
Hip-Hop visitors. We offer a wide range of promotional opportunities
to help expose your music to our audience. We can also run news
features on our radio show that airs weekly on XM Satellite Radio
and DIRECTV. Visit our XM
Radio Show website for more info. We also regularly select
videos to share with our friends on Myspace.com/Sphereofhiphop.
How do the Top 25 Video charts
work?
We rank the hottest videos based upon how many unique views they
get. Watching your favorite video 50 billion times yourself will
only count as 1 unique play.
I would like to advertise on
SphereofhiphopTV.com. How does this work and what does it cost to
have our advertisement posted?
We offer a variety of advertisement options on
SphereofhiphopTV.com in addition to the rest of our site network (Sphereofhiphop.com
and SphereofhiphopMP3.com).
We currently only have one banner slot on the entire site. That is
by design! We don't like to be bombarded by ads and bet you don't
either. Please do click on any banners that look interesting to you.
Please support our advertisers that help us stay online!
What types of videos will you
post?
We primarily stick with music videos and live performance
footage. You may find an occasional video that does not fall within
either of those two categories.
How can I support what you are
doing with Sphere of Hip-Hop?
Running the Sphere family of websites is not only time consuming
but also costs a good amount of money. We can accept direct
donations directly towards our web hosting account if that is
something you are interested. Our main source of income is through
music sales at SphereofhiphopStore.com. Please shop there frequently
to help us keep the site online and so we may be able to continue
growing. Contact us should you have any questions about how to
pledge your support.
Do you have any banners or imaging
I can use on my website (blog, Myspace, Facebook etc...)?
We will have some available to you very soon. Watch this space!
Do you also post the videos on
Youtube?
Yes we do! We have a special link set up for you to check out many
videos we've also added to Youtube at Youtube.com/Sphereofhiphop.
We're still getting everything added in. Look for new videos added
each month.
