Just so you know where I stand:
* I'm aiming to video stuff to get it out there.
* I'm using blip.tv, because it seems to be the least bad option out there
* Once it's there, I'm perfectly happy with anyone and everyone doing
what they like with it.
* It is also, rather crucially, cost free. There's no cost for me to
capture & upload (aside from time) and none for serving. On that front,
importing video from somewhere else for local playback inside the
Europython site I can see as being nice. The Europython website incurring
the costs involved in streaming the content seems a bad idea to me.
ie I'm concerned with capture and making available, once it's there, please
enjoy.
( I'm not planning on doing more than the above myself for various reasons -
not least the fact that I'm unlikely to be able to attend Europython next
year. )
Regarding putting on the europython website though, I'm guessing you just
manage pulling in the embedding information from blip though - eg:
>From http://europython09.blip.tv/file/2351630/ :
<embed src="http://blip.tv/play/AYGQ4WEC" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
width="480" height="300" allowscriptaccess="always"
allowfullscreen="true"></embed>
FWIW, I am planning on recording at least 1 of the mediacore sessions, since I
do have an interest - but primarily from the accessibility (blindness/deafness
etc) perspective rather than the tech :-)
eg curious about how you integrate with screen readers; how you deal with
thumbnails, metadata etc, how you handle subtitles etc. After all, we all only
go through a relatively brief period of "ableness" in life.
