Yassman··on Show HN: WindowsKnowHow – A video guide to Windows 10
Ah ok thanks. I will definitely investigate. Very strange.

Thanks for the feedback! Yes I got a professional voice actor to narrate it as my voice is way too dull and I didn't want to send people to sleep ;)

I will definitely plan to auto-mark videos as watched and also produce a completion certificate - these are great ideas, thank you.

I also plan to make the video page layout more like YouTube, with the video window taking up 2/3 width of the page and the list of videos taking up the other 1/3 width down the right hand side. Unfortunately I don't yet have the tech skills to do that, but working on it :)

Thanks, yes I was thinking I may go down that route if it fails to take off. I have a few videos on Youtube already, one of which has over 500k views, so that might actually be a feasible option.

Good point, thanks. Will amend. It's the little things that count.

Ah, that could be because I've enabled domain protection so the videos can only be accessed when clicking the link from my site. If you open the link in a new tab for example, you'll most likely get that error. Are you opening in a new window or just regular left-clicking? I think/hope the latter should work.

Do you mean the sample videos on the home page? All working well for me. What do you get when you click them? They should point to Vimeo and open the video in a lightbox.
