I wrote a message to Greg Bernhardt to hear if it was okay i posted some videos to the videos section.
However, i didn't receive an answer so i just posted anyway. When i did the website said an administrator had to approve it, now a week has passed and I've heard nothing..

You don't hear anything when your video is approved. When you post a video, it is queued for approval by a mentor. You do not get a message if it is approved or not. If it's approved, then you should be able to see your video under the "New Videos" section. If it's not approved, then you'll not find it.
 
Thank you. Are there any rules? I don’t understand why it wasn’t approved
 
Maybe the mentors found something in the video, which violated the PF guidelines, due to which it couldn't be made public.

But don't feel upset. I also took some time in understanding what videos should be posted. If you get good videos, keep on posting, and they'll surely be approved if they fit the guidelines.

Don't worry - I'm not upset :D
I tried posting a video about the basics of optics to optics. After reading the guidelines the video could only have violated "Advertising & Spam" since i made the video myself. But I'm not sure. Will try with another video another day then :)
