Is there a "standard" format for video in the Squeak community? I noticed that most of the Croquet videos were in Quicktime format, and I wasn't sure if that carried over to here as well.

I ask, because I put together a small video about building a simple calculator in Squeak, but it's in the WMV format. Is that acceptable? Thanks.

Also, if anyone's interested, here's the video: http://profnano.org/code/squeak/Squeak_SimpleCalc.wmv

Works for me on a Mac, but only because I installed Flip4Mac. I assume it will work on Win, don't know about Linux.

Generally we prefer something that can be played on Mac and Unix and Windows, if possible without any additional software. I think only MPEG fits that, and it even can be played back by Squeak. Flash movies work pretty well across platforms, too, that's what Google Video or YouTube use.

As a Linux user I prefer a format that can have players packaged by default on Linux distros without any patents or other concerns. Your video doesn't give me more that audio on my Ubuntu Linux machine and would be nice to see the video you want to share with us.

I really appreciate your concern about proper formats for free information interchange. Thanks a lot,

Offray
