[Request] Switch Submission Gallery Video after judging?

Would email this to challengepost support but I figure this request is best made publicly. My question is for once judging has been completed as I am not looking for any unfair advantage. Any less than ideal submission materials are my fault alone. :)

The issue is that my initial upload to youtube had some minor audio warping towards the end of my video for some strange reason that initially went unnoticed in the rush to finish stuff up. I've created a new version that has the same exact content but lacks that weird audio warping near the end located at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0vaYYblytQ . Once the contest judging is over, I'd like to take down the warped audio version and just leave up the "good version" of the video. Thus my request on if my submission could be updated to point to that video once the contest has reached that point since it is identical in content?

If not possible, would it be alright if I added a large annotation at that point to my submission video that linked to the "better video"?

Thanks!

    You can switch it now - the judging is based on a snapshot taken at the close of entries.

    Then physical device testing after the certification period.

    @macmorrison - So the end gallery is just from what is currently in my profile and not based on that snapshot? If so, yeah, will just correct it there for when they open up the final gallery.

    The way it worked in round 1 was the submissions were locked, while they grabbed them all. Then they became editable, so you can edit your page - but that's not what will be judged. I suspect (though don't know) they will be using grabs of the videos - so adding an interactive button to view the updated video wont appear.

    Hi PHDGaming,

    Thanks for your question. macmorrison is correct. You can update your software entry in your portfolio here: http://challengepost.com/users/PHDGaming

    @macmorrison and @serena101 - Alright, thank you both. :)

    So... the gallery is now visible but it is showing my entry at the time of submission. I'm confused as this thread indicated the public display would be the one from my Portfolio? So, if my original assumption that it is indeed a different view that my portfolio one, my request on a video switch after the judging ends still stands if possible. (Glad I didn't take down the old video yet as well....). Thanks!
