Mau Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Did you guys have noticed that the Transformers scenes in the New Divide video where cut off? Anyone know why? They add new scenes and effects. Sorry for my english Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikita Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) You're right. What the hell happened There always were two versions. The version without Transformers scenes appeared shorty after original music video release. Edited November 8, 2014 by Nikita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinez Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 This version was released long time ago in the digital stores (the version without transformers scenes - band only), it's nothing new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spooky Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Wow what the hell, The Music video on Linkin Parks youtube channel always had the transformers clips in them. I remember looking at most watched clips and New divide is the most watched LP video on their youtube. It still had the Transformers clips in them earlier this year.

Mesck547 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 As far as I can remember, the LP Youtube channel version had the Transformers scenes. I might be wrong, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astat Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) Yeah, the version on LP's channel definitely used to have the Transformers scenes in it. I remember the "non-Transformers version" coming out a while after the original.Also, the New Divide video originally premiered on LP's Myspace page before it was up anywhere else. If you look through their videos on Myspace, you'll notice that the Making Of for New Divide's video was posted way before the version of the actual music video that's currently on there: https://myspace.com/linkinpark/videos There are also 2 uploads for New Divide itself, both of which are the "non-Transformers version." So they obviously took the original video down and re-uploaded the other version at some point. Not sure how they managed to do it on Youtube and keep the original upload stats, I don't think Youtube's editor lets you swap in an entirely different video!Something's definitely going on here. It's like the original version that included the Transformers footage doesn't even exist anymore in terms of LP's official media outlets.*Edit* The original video was uploaded in May 2009, while the "non-Transformers version" first appeared on iTunes in July: http://www.lpassociation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29797 Edited November 8, 2014 by Astat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jgrosk Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hopefully they remove the Transformers scenes from the Iridescent video too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Maybe they were upset when they got passed over for Imagine Dragons lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlassCastles Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Maybe they were upset when they got passed over for Imagine Dragons lolThat was my first thought Mike was just like "Fuck you.

Astat Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I'm thinking the more likely story is that LP had a 5-year "lease" with Paramount to use the likenesses of the Transformers characters from the second movie, and they didn't renew it.

xLinkinpark0562x Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 But the REAL question is, how does one replace a video with a completely different one on Youtube without having to re-upload it and reset the views? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinez Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) They just changed the video in the player. Edited November 10, 2014 by martinez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coizu Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 But the REAL question is, how does one replace a video with a completely different one on Youtube without having to re-upload it and reset the views?Having a huge label and management behind your back probably helps a lot.

hahninator Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 But the REAL question is, how does one replace a video with a completely different one on Youtube without having to re-upload it and reset the views? There are ways to do this and since LP is the biggest band on YouTube they are able to do these kinds of things. In that Google Glass video that got removed because it was recorded without Mike's knowledge, he admits that Facebook and YouTube work directly with LP to do things. And I've known for a while that LP or their mgmt can send a link to YouTube and something can be taken down in a matter of minutes. Crazy.

[AndOne] Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Since audio tracks can be replaced and videos edited I don't think it's impossible to replace an entire video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they care about the Meteora instrumentals being all over youtube. I also was curious to see that Google glass video myself, which apparently doesn't exist anywhere anymore lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably it is possible now, maybe they have introduced this option somehow recently, or this is just one small exception, which admin of youtube did, when was asked by the publisher.The fact is that, this link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysSxxIqKNN0) is the same from 2009.
