Re: Clojure videos no longer downloadable
Here's an idea. Put the videos on a site that has the best CDN reach (especially noticeable in Asia), does automatic transcoding to lower resolutions, and most importantly can jump to any point in the videos. Works on android, ipod, wp7, and even blackberry. Youve probably not heard of it, YouTube! Not sure why people believe its 'cool' niche video sites, worst offender is Vimeo (absolute crap - some repackage flash player with no jumping on top of akamai cdn) or Blip (not as bad, but still poor playback support, none for Android tablets etc..). Youtube is fine. On Dec 15, 11:21 am, Baishampayan Ghose b.gh...@gmail.com wrote: Every video has an RSS feed which can be mechanically constructed given the URL.

That's quite handy; thanks. Even so I'm pretty annoyed that they deleted my account and locked me out. Not that it necessitates finding a friendlier video host, but I wanted to just raise awareness of the issue. -Phil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Clojure group.

I don't know if it helps but I subscribe to the Clojure podcast in iTunes and it has downloaded all the episodes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/clojure/id275488598 I don't know how/if that relates to the blip.tv access point.
