I just found a video said to be in Russian, but it's in English. Here it is - http://dotsub.com/view/5a329d73-bc76-443c-a3f3-787c28a93e5e . I assume the person posting it was also the translator and thought he/she should put the language of the translation, missing the point that there would eventually be multiple translations and he/she should just give the original language. But my main point is that surely there should be a clear way to report any problems with any video, this or anything else. Maybe a way to 'flag' the video and put a short comment in a box about what's wrong with it, like 'wrong language' etc.

    Hi Mark:

    Thanks for this. It does happen often that the person posting the video choose the wrong "source" language. We do monitor as best we can but good idea, we'll think about a "flagging" system.

    Just change the 'report this video as offensive' to a general flagging and
    commenting function for various problems, which you could list next to the
    function.
