Just keep it in 4:3 format unless you know they are going 16:9 widescreen

Most everything will downsize correctly depending on the ratio it came in
at. No idea on that bit...

If these are webcasts, or well doesn't matter, hosting anything above what I
post next is expensive. Most likelly you need to keep it under 640x480 for
4:3 format and 640 x 360 for 16:9. Scale down according you actually get
better pictures the smaller you get.

If you got bandwidth and resources sure, look at higher resolutions, still
within those know scaled ratios.

And LongTail player now works on Livestream.com, Livestream provides an API.
It's kinda crappy at the moment since I can only access a couple API's and
it's new, but that isn't stopping me form digging in deeper.

There's a load of things I can get accomplished with this data on
dvsdjtv.com, Livestream.com is in no small part how that site lives, I love
them for it for sure! In the mist of rearranging how the slite flows, video
management came up. This is by far the worst video management website EVER
in terms of resource management because it's built on flex. I have not doubt
about it!! !These CPU intesive functions drive be and you I'm sure batty.

Over the past weekend I was at least having some fun with coding, BOH!  WOW
there is a lot that can be done outside of the livestream.com player I was
overlooking after the api came out.... Anyway, more on that shortly, Just
throwing it out there.

Maybe it's just how easy cfhtp makes it to consume API's
