I noticed that when a video becomes unavailable in a playlist, it
still remains in the playlist and therefore tubepress recognizes it.
Whats bad is wherever the video is supposed to be in the tubepress
gallery, it creates a blank spot. Such that when i call for 9 videos
per page, and the unavailable video is #9, then the 9th location is
blank.

For me thats a two-fold problem: as 1) it falsely indicates to a user
that the gallery is over ie only 8 videos long. and 2) i had to change
the css and get rid of the clear:both declarations as it doesnt work
on my site. Then what happens is the pagination bar floats up to that
empty spot.

i guess what i'm asking is does the api allow for you to tell if the
video is unavailable and can it then be ignored when populating a
gallery?

thanks in advance

ian

I've given this some thought. At first I didn't like the idea of
completely filtering out unavailable videos so as to not confuse users
(some gallery pages would have 8 videos, while others would have 9).
But now I agree with you in that having a blank spot in the middle of
the gallery would be just as confusing. I'll make the change and
include it in 1.8.0 final, which will be out this weekend.

Thanks for the feedback.
