Technical difficulties are the norm at virtually any industry conference dealing with, well, technology, but the number of gaffs occurring throughout OMMA Video were worthy of a viral forwarding. Feel free to do so once the conference videos are posted later today. In the meantime, let me tell you that they ranged from Next New Networks CEO Herb Scannell’s montage running with video, but without sound to a creative panel in which the sound from one presenter’s video just wouldn’t go away, and overlaid onto the video of the presenter following him.

But the most ironic snafu likely was during Revver’s Brian McCarthy’s presentation. But maybe that one should have been expected. McCarthy prefaced his presentation, noting that it was created on a Mac, but was being run on a PC. What’s so ironic about that? Well, one of the Mac-made graphics that failed to appear on the PC-based video projector was, labeled, â€oeUnique Content review Process.†Only there wasn’t any to be seen on the screen.

â€oeWhat this says, is that we review every single piece of content carefully,†quipped McCarthy.
