You're welcome. I try to keep them coming as long as nobody has been found for the subs. And I'm really happy when the story starts already. I hope there are less group scene then and more scenes where no words are needed. ;D I like the dynamic between Lenny and his father. I'm excited to see how this works out in the upcoming story. And I like Carsten's mini lines, where he shows that he isn't like the others and seems to be behaving more decent. Don't like the gang and I hope they will be gone ASAP. Love Anna and Alexander together, even though you guys don't see much of them, but they really are an interesting couple. And the have to put the actress who plays Anna under contract. Same goes for Felix Isenbügel (Carsten).

You're welcome. I try to keep them coming as long as nobody has been found for the subs. I'm actually enjoying the build up an the chance to get to know them each separately and together before all the coming out drama happens. They are both interesting characters so I don't mind so much that the romance is a bit far off. I wish I knew how to subtitle. There are so many different people who participate here in the land of Gays of Daytime, there should be a way to connect folks together to do things as a group. I'm sure there's someone here who knows how to subtitle but doesn't know we need it. The EKP channel has 3 people on their team and each one just does one specific thing and I know it took them a while to find each other. 1 person downloads the show and edits the clips. 1 person transcribes the German and translates into English 1 person uses the translations to make subtitles then uploads the clips That system seems to work really well for them. So maybe as Lenny and Carsten become more popular here, someone with the other skills needed with happen to show up over here and offer to help. In the mean time, I'm SOOO happy ;D to have the transcripts you make and so grateful to get to enjoy this story and talk about it with everyone.

Ehm, i just tested it, and i can do it. It's very simple with windows video maker. Everybody can do it. I subtiteld a minute, the quality is quite bad, because i had to modify it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBDSpXESGtMSo, if somebody wants do it, i can help. Or i can do it, but that's kinda difficult, because i can't record anything on tv and my english is very bad. Oo So, alex20, what do you think?

If you want I of course give you my recorded clips for the subtitles and I would keep writing the translations. I would do the subtitling myself ... but I guess I'm the one of everyone who just doesn't has the talent (or it would take days to do just one clip). ;D Anyway, I'd be happy to help you with it wherever I can. And I think a lot of people would be happy to have clips with English subtitles. Clips from yesterday and today (I guess) are coming up in a bit. No worry there.

I finally uploaded Part 7 and 8 - still centering around Lenny and Alexander. The second part is really interesting, when Alexander is questioning what his son has become. And also kind of sad because of Anna and Alexander. It's also great to see that Carsten defends Lenny as good as he can (at least what's "appropriate" in front of the guys) and how he looks when Lenny goes up against his own father.

I swear it's like Lenny and Carsten's friends just stepped out of a production of the "Outsiders" of that movies "Warriors" about gangs in the The Bronx (NYC) from the 1980s. Seriously were they raised by wolves? I wish Carsten wasn't so passive I know he's a little guy but still I just hate watching them dig and dig at Lenny and Lenny just has to take it or spend all his time fighting. Oooh, I just wanna smack each and every one of them and give that Turner guy a MATCHING EYE!! . Oooh Lenny. I wouldn't be that age again if you paid me. The pressure to conform is like a giant boulder on your back. GUH! Man this is like testosterone city. Woosh.

Those "friends" are sooooo incredibly annoying and I can't wait to see Carsten be more active and profess his feeling for Lenny!!! ;D ;D

Today's episode showed Lenny's trouble with "his friend" Turner, which ended with Lenny punching him. And honestly ... who can blame him...!?

I've been wanting to punch Turner for weeks now so I can't blame him. I don't usually like so much violence for violence sake but I get that this is where Lenny is in his life right now and I'm willing to deal. We need to go recruiting for some folks who like to subtitle for the fall (when the Lenny and Carsten stuff starts to turn romantic). The translations are amazing and I'm so appreciative but I think we'd get a lot more regular viewers (and folks to participate here in the thread) if there were subtitles. I'm going to put out a call on the general chat forum and see if anyone bites! They could use Alex original clips rather than downloading from Youtube if they are worried about quality. It's always better to have a team of people instead of so much pressure on only one or two people. Thanks Alex for everything. So good. Love that you are so dedicated to bringing this story to us. Cheers

Seriously? With today's episode RTL is taking a copyright claim. I tried to upload the scenes of Lenny and Carsten from today's episode twice ... both times the videos got immediately blocked. I'll hopefully figure out a way to make it work. It's just that I really don't understand what's different from 24 hours ago, where I uploaded the last part. And other clips from the episode - posted earlier - are working too. Same goes for the clips from RTLs "AWZ". If someone has an idea what to do ... please write it down.^^

What does it say? Usually it's some song that causes that. If there is a sequence with only a song and no dialog, they can recognise the song automatically and check if somebody claimed the copyright. I don't think they can do the same with video, they could only compare description which can be easily avoided by spelling errors. Try to mute the song and upload again

If someone has an idea what to do ... please write it down.^^ I'm so sorry that's happening to you. How frustrating. RTL just needs to stop it. I know some other posters here have recently had a lot of trouble with clips being blocked, removed or flagged. You could try 1) Disabling comments (Youtube robots definitely search comments for clues to a video's contents) 2) Making the videos Private (so that only your Youtube friends can see them and most of the discussion of episodes would probably happen here in TGODT) 3) Changing the names of the episodes AND including a disclaimer in your description. 4) Replacing the music track with copyright approved music and then re-uploaded the clips (Nanna and EKP have both had to do this with clips for Chrolli and DeRo). I have no idea how but I know they've all had to do it from time to time. Lillith, Aldi from EKP/AWZ or Nanna who does VL might have some tips if you Personal Message them

Yea, but 99 cent each episode... kinda expensive. I love those two, but... There are other clips of gzsz on youtube... or look at the franzi+ paula storyline, no clip is blocked or something. Would be really sad, if rtl doing this especially for the Canny-storyline. Damn, i hate something like this. Anyway, thank you für the caps.

alex20 i can help you when you want ! I have yesterday's gzsz episode recorded it . I know youtube have problems from time to time. Thank you! I tried a couple of things ... without any luck. I'll keep trying, but I'm getting out of ideas here. Maybe people should stop with uploading episodes before they even aired to not get unnecessary attention from RTL. And I agree with IvanIV. They actually selling the full episodes, so it's quite tough with free videos on YT. But I thought that they would at least let this story go free since it gets international attention and it covers only parts from the episodes (+ uploading the parts after it's original airing).

I checked the video and I assume YT said RTL is claiming the copyright. If they can say that right after the upload/during processing, it means they detect something automatically. Which they can do from audio and maybe from video. In audio there is only one "song" that may be considered GZSZ specific, the last scene. I'd try to mute and repeat the upload. But it's also possible they can detect logos, but I don't think it's RTL logo that is on the whole time and there are other RTL clips on YT anyway, but the GZSZ logo that appeared twice. Try to make a test video where you either remove the logo, or if it is easier remove the parts of the video with it, only to see if YT accepts it now. There's also that gzsz.de that appears there. I can imagine they could do an OCR on that. I did a test with logos only clip, it was processed OK, then I did a longer clip with logos and then I got the copyright claim. Now I should do the same clip without sound to see if it's in that song or video, but you can do so yourself, I do not want to get more copyright warnings
