Have you asked TapaTalk why they don't support viewing widescreen videos?

Because phone screens aren't big enough, letterboxing would be what you have now.

Assuming you mean wide enuf, don't they know that most mobile phones (AFAIK) can auto-turn the video when you turn the phone 90 degrees.

If you turn the screen 90 degrees, youtube still shows up the same width?

No matter, they keep telling me I won't be able to see anything soon with my browser, anyway.

Tapatalk doesn't support our "youtubewide" tag because it's not a common BBCode tag that sites use at all. It's something I made up on the fly. Tapatalk doesn't know how to interpret it.

I don't either, but I do know that most mobile phones can auto-adjust video when turned on it's side. Not sure if pillarboxed video is stretched to fit the viewing area though.

How in hell does he know where the road is? Or is the road where he puts it?

Good question. There are telephone poles or something off to the side, so that gets him in the vicinity, and I also noticed footprints or maybe a snowmobile track in front of him that he might have been following. Also, he backs up a bit every now and then, and maybe that gives him a view of the road surface. Although it looks like it's the grader behind him that's actually scraping down to the blacktop. So I really don't know.

Very cool video though.

Fixed it!

Scroll up and look at that shot of the screen in a brand new inlet valve. And then look at this one.

And here is the youtube video of it working. OMG, what a difference. You can see the water levelin the bottom of the DW is much higher and the spray is much more powerful.
