Yeah, you just said what was on my mind since I launched it. The code I wrote is for tutorial videos. Non-tutorial video responses are just gibberish. The representative videos on the top is a great idea. I'll look into it.
Can you tell me more about the video you entered? Did it have a transcript? How many hours long was it?
I tried entering a new video but I got a Heroku application error. Maybe it's a limits thing.
When I look at the Recent videos, a lot of them are not for instructions/tutorials. Perhaps people do not understand the purpose of this project. Maybe they are just testing it out with non-tutorial content.
Maybe you could add representative videos towards the top so that people would get a better sense of the use of this project?
I don't know why this isn't more popular here. It's a good idea. (Maybe it has already been implemented elsewhere?) Reading is much faster than watching a video for many instruction-based tasks. Good luck!
