FYI…
My Khu Kam lakorn channel with English subtitle on youtube is in trouble. The account got one strike from GMM for copyrights. As a result, youtube deleted episode 6 part 2. I am uploading the deleted part (E6 p2) here for people who haven’t had a chance to watch or want to re-watch it again.
Khu Kam E6, P2 with English subtitle
Khu Kam E16, P4 & p5 with English subtitle
I am trying to protect my Bie Lakorn account on youtube. Keep my fingers cross that they will not come back to strike other clip(s). Two more strikes , the account will be suspended and deleted (lost 4 lakorns with English subtitle last year, 4 years of work went down the tube 😦
There are 123 clips from Khukam. It’s impossible to protect the clips right now. In the same time, I removed all the “TAGS” from Khukam clips hoping to slow them down when they are looking for more Khukam clips to strike.
What’s next?
If my Khukam lakorn channel on youtube got deleted, I would need to find a new host/ youtube alternative. Dailymotion might be a possibility. I can host short clips here but may not be a good idea to host lakorn due to lakorn file size and limited storage space.
I’ll keep searching for other alternatives. If you have ideas or suggestions, please share with me. Thanks.
i wish i know something to help,but i only know youtube malie 😦
it’s ok Rina… I’ll figure out something. I still have an option of hosting them here.
How about picasa on Google, Malie? I see someones use picasa like this. https://plus.google.com/u/1/photos/115275158870955586526/albums/6034792515449853505
Its loading fast. But I have no idea about copyrights. Hope it’s okie.
I looked at google… but then, youtube is part of google 😦 I’ll try uploading a few clips on google will see what happen.
I also look at Vimeo. Vimeo looks good. I have to adjust my KK clips and make them smaller.
Hope it’s okie. 🙂
Would reposted the deleted video with sound mute get you into trouble? YT suggested that I do that with some of my videos that I uploaded on YT for my family and friends to view that got copyright noticed. So sorry to hear about what had happened. I found your video at last
James Long – glad you found KK e6 p2.
Mute the sound – some clips, we can mute the sound and it would be ok.
With Khukam E6 p2 clip, there wasn’t any warning or option. Youtube deleted the clip and told me that GMM asked them to strike down that clip because the content belonged to GMM. There was nothing I could do. Just hope that they don’t come back to strike down more Khukam clips 😦
Just uploaded a clip to test… it’s working … not bad at all
https://plus.google.com/
But how to get the file’s link? This is just plus.google link, Malie.
I see many uploaders use this host and the file’s quality is good.
I test with this clip and it’s okie,
You must copy the link on address task bar to share, and paste it in the post.
I think you can paste it in the post introduce the lakorn here to organize.
I test with this one.

You can organize them to Album too.
I have to learn how to use/ organize clips on google plus. Yeah, I like the video quality on google… uploading clips are almost the same rate as youtube. If our youtube account is deleted by youtube, wouldn’t we lose our google plus account as well??? since youtube and google are the same company
file link – don’t know how to get file link, yet… google asked me to establish URL… not sure what that means, yet…
Dailymotion is very slow.
I think you should have a host to save all files, not only for online but also for downloading too.
Before I had trouble with copyrights like you, but I still save on my computer and a host.
This time I saved my clips on my computer and online… it’s not for people to download, though. That web doesn’t allow
How about you start a post on your website and let’s get a petition going or encourage everyone to come together to each send out an email to GMM. You are actually doing them a free service. Come on. How many international fans did you help them garnish with your subs. You are not getting any profits either. This is really unfair to inter fans. If the Thai ET industry subs their lakorns for sale or release official subbed box sets then I understand that it’s direct competition to their sales! But there is absolutely none to be found, anywhere.
Exactly! they got my service for free. I definitely do not get paid for any of this service. I help promoted their artists and their production. IF it was a news clips promoting their products, they left those clips alone. But when it comes to lakorn/ their production… they put a strike on the clips… something is not right about this process.
I was thinking along the same line with you… get a petition going… ask all international fans to go and post message(s) on GMM and Exact facebook. Hope, international fans will join in.
GMM talked about their rights to their contents… what about my work and time that I spent subbing each lakorn and help promoted their artist… somehow, they forgot that point.
So far, a fan in Thailand sent a letter to khun Boy at Exact. Hopefully, he reads the letter and get back to us. If I don’t hear from them I am going to complain with youtube and GMM directly. The worst case is they delete my account which it’s going to get deleted anyway when they come back to put to strike down another KK clips. There are more than 100 clips for them to strike 😦
Keep us updated
sis Malie, is there any update on this concern? after we knew that p’Boy already got that letter from us as well as p’Muay would convey my message about this matter to him… please keep me posted, thanks ka.
Haven’t heard from him, yet…
I am waiting to see the reaction from Khun Boy on this topic too.
I am very much concern on this
did you see a statement made by GMM concerning their copyrights?
I translated it:
GMM issued the following statement regarding copyrights. They are threatening us with copyright law.
This is how I understand the above statement. Sorry in advance if I misunderstood any of the above information
What you cannot do:
1. save your music file on your own server or use someone else copy code to post, use their song(s) in the background intentionally or unintentionally (P.S. not sure if I totally understand this one)
2. share or allow others to download songs whether it’s from your own server or a host server
What you can do:
3. when you post or share the lyrics, you must state the title of the song and name the original artist
4. If you sing one of their songs with your own voice, you must state clearly whom the original artist was
Marie, the EP16P5 video above is no longer available. Can you please re-upload this part somewhere? Thanks for your help.
You can watch E6, p2 and p5 here… (the clips are posted above)… E6, p5 clip is working. I just checked it. The clip is blocked on youtube but it is still watchable here.
I’ll check it often. Thanks a lot. I appreciate your work subbing this. Love love love! 🙂
great… enjoy! 🙂
I tried again and E16, P5 above is blocked by GMM on copyright grounds. 😦
Pete, I posted a wrong part. The above clip is E16 p4… not p5.
ok… I’ll upload a new clip, then…
uploaded the clip… will take about 20 minutes to process before it goes live.
Thank you! I’ll be back in 20 minutes then. :3 :3 :3
sounds good 🙂
Malie, I noticed that all your Khu Kam videos are TV rips that are quite low quality (the videos are blurry and does not play smoothly, they seem to skip frames). I’ve got rips from the official boxset DVDs which have excellent quality. Are you interested in putting the English subs on this version and sharing these instead. International fans will have a better viewing experience. If you’re interested, please email me so I can arrange the files for you.
Khu Kam is actually filmed in HD (16:9), but was broadcasted in 4:3 in Thailand. Unfortunately the videos in the boxset DVDs are also in 4:3. I guess the drama will only be shown in HD (16:9) when it is licensed and broadcasted in other countries. 😦
FYI, your 720p video files are 4:3 stretched to 16:9. You can do the same with the official DVD rips, but I prefer to watch them at the correct display ratio. Bie and Noona definitely looks better and more natural at the correct display ratio.
Hahaha… I am sure Bie and Noona would look a lot better non-stretched 🙂
The video file I got was already stretched to 16:9. I used whatever I had access to. Plus, I don’t know how to revert it back to its original form. Back then, Thailand didn’t have HD TV, yet.
Anyway, each of my video clip had to go through at least 3 video conversions before the final product. Picture quality was lost with each conversion.
1. split one hour long video file into smaller chunks… 15 to 20 minutes long using Window Movie Maker
2. converted each video clip from .wmv to .avi (because Virtual Dub would only work with .avi)
3. I used Virtual Dub to do subtitle. Virtual Dub reduces quality of the video almost by half (i.e. from 400MB .wmv to only 200MB .avi Virtual Dub clip with sub.)
I think unless I find a better software that can split and sub, I will continue to have low quality video. There are better ones out there but I can’t afford them 😀
GMM’s copyrights is also a problem. I don’t know how long KK clips will remain playable on youtube. They are blocking one clip after another 😦
rips from the official box set DVDs – sure, I can try. Actually, I was thinking about it. One thing that concerns me…someone might try to profit from me by downloading good quality clips, put it on DVD and sell.
Malie, I can rip the videos for you from the DVDs in the format you want (avi, and in segments). You just need to add in the English hard sub. In this way you will have the highest possible quality.
I can rip a segment from EP1 for you to try. Let me know your email address so I can send the download link to you (You should be able to see my email from this post).
Have you watched Hormones the series? Kudalakorn is subbing it and she has been using dailymotion for her videos. She also has full episode hard sub downloads available. For example:
http://www.kudalakorn.com/eng-sub-hormones-season-2-ep8/
May be you can try it that way?
As for someone selling the videos, it depends on how you look at it. In my point of view, I don’t care if that happens, as long as more people are able to watch this awesome series. But you may have a different point of view though. 🙂
remove
Malie, I’ve sent you the links to your email. Please check it. Also, can you please delete all my accidental posts above?
ok… will do. Took a short trip out of town, just got back. Don’t know anything about asiatorrents. I’ll check it out.
Malie, can you delete the 2 posts above that contains my full name? They are supposed to be emails sent personally to you, not to the blog.
Thank you. 🙂
Pete
haha… ok… how come it showed up over here?
I replied the blog email and forgot to replace the blog email address with your personal email address. So it got here. 😦
Any way, it seems that you haven’t check your personal email yet. Don’t forget to check it. 🙂
just checked my email… sorry for a very late reply. Thanks for the clips.
Hi Mallie, I watched EP16p5 and the video is not till the end. is that an error or u have p6 instead? :DD

We love you so much Bie…If you come to Vietnam.. I am very happy…
I & my soon love & miss you so much Mr. Kobori…
Rose with loves
Thank you Malie for good translation of the movie Khu Kam. You have made good translation in english subtitles. Its means a lot to me to understand the thai movie like Khu Kam. I can watch the movie Khu Kam anytime and anywhere. The story is very strong like Romeo and Juliet.
Thank you for the compliment. Really appreciate it. KK was such a tragic love story with sad-sad ending… but so good to watch. Glad you like it. It was a challenging project but a wonderful one. I learned a lot about WWII from subbing this TV Drama.
Thank you very much for Eng sub. I liked this drama very much, even though I cannot watch all episodes due to blocked. If you create a new link for this drama, please let me know. I want to watch again.
will let you know. Hope to have better picture as well.
Where can you purchase Khu Kam 2013. Com0lete set of episodes? How much USD $.

I have tried to find all of your movies, films,series. I have looked at google, facebook, ask and have not found very many of your movies english subbed.
Can you pls help me find dvds of yours of films and dramas. Love your music as well.
hi! I came across your playlist a year ago – and ABSOLUTELY loved the series! Any possibility of it being re uploaded?
Please please please!
(If there are any links!)
I loved the Bie-Noona version the best and hoping something can happen!
I am afraid the clips will get deleted that’s why I hesitate to upload new clips.
no matter; thanks for the clips so far 😀
Really miss this lakorn, i want to watch it again. I’ve tried looking to another web and didn’t find it 😭
Can you upload it again in full movie? Pleasee
