[videoblogging] rejected by C|Net
I try out most of the new video hosting services at least once, so I tried out the new C|Net upload. They don't offer much in the way of guidelines before you submit content as to what type of thing they're looking for, though the set of categories they offer (once you get that far) gives some clues. There wasn't a travel category (usually the most obvious one for my videos) so I had to choose something like family. So here's the rejection letter: Greetings Deirdre'Thank you very much for submitting Mehndi Hand Painting (7851) to CNETDownload.com Video. We strive to offer content that will appeal to a wide range of users and also meet our editorial standards, and with this in mind, we givecareful consideration to all submissions.After reviewing your submission, the Download.com Video editors have decided not to post it at this time. We thank you for your effort, and we encourage you tocontinue submitting new material for consideration in the future.If you decide to include an audio track with your video, we will reconsider posting it to our site.

I guess they're saying they would like it better with music but, of course, it has to be original music. Given that I am not a musician, I have had no luck finding Indian CC music, anddon't have time to plow through the various CC music sources to look for anything else appropriate, this is a non-starter of a suggestion. shrug One down, a few dozen new ones every day to go... -- best regards,Deirdré Straughanwww.beginningwithi.com (personal)www.tvblob.com (work) SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO!

[videoblogging] Weird Fireant Behavior
There is a weird thing going on with my Fireant lately. Its displaying the quicktime window larger than the display window so that I have to scroll around to see the entire picture.

Re: [videoblogging] Weird Fireant Behavior
yes, just recently on a mac, after attaching and detaching a second monitor or projector (also changing resolutions a few times) i think i ended up having to shutdown fireant and reset the screen again (i had to actually change to a different res and then change back to the one I wanted before this worked) i may have had to restart the mac too i tend to think of this as a mac issue - i used to think windows apps were bad at handling dual monitors, but i have seen far more problems with macs in this area markus Bill Streeter wrote: There is a weird thing going on with my Fireant lately.

[videoblogging] Podcasters doing video
Hey Eric Rice, et all... How do we talk to the podcast community interested in doing video and let them know that a bunch of us have been doing video for a while now and can help if they'd like? Verdi From a WiredNews article: http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,69462,00.html?tw=rss.TOP But not everyone's so sure. Jawbone Radio host Len Peralta has no plans to start a videocast and is especially dismayed by podcasters who just turn a camera on themselves. The Mary and Karla Show, for example, is painful to watch, complains Peralta, referring to a show by a pair of Portland, Maine, audio podcasters who, on the video version, sit by their computer or on couches talking. It's a head scratcher why people would watch that. What is added from the audio show? Karla Preston, one of the co-hosts, takes the criticism in stride, noting that many listeners were curious to see what the Portland, Maine, podcasters look like. Their videocast, which started the same week Apple released the new iPod, is simply another way of experimenting in a new media, she says. We wanted to be one of the first to try it out, and it turned out to be a huge success for us, says Preston, who notes her show has been recommended by Curry on PodFinder and regularly resides in iTunes' top 100 rankings. Our viewers love us and they keep asking for more People love the expressions on our faces and they like watching us move on camera. -- Me: http://michaelverdi.com RD: http://graymattergravy.com Learn to videoblog: http://freevlog.org Learn to videoblog in person: http://node101.org Yahoo!

Re: [videoblogging] Re: YouTube - WTF?
Right.My points are not saying that VC's have no interest in videoblogging. They do. Investors are tapping into it.There is potentially a huge market space for content creators and services that cater to them. It takes deeper understandings and analysis than the simpler viral video services, but we all know vlogging is legit and nothing can stop the momentum. It is so on, getting bigger every day.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: YouTube - WTF?
Because it works, works fast, and users are generally willing to sacrifice quality and freedom for just working... look at the threads over the past months about ourmedia/archive crapping out, average ADHD-level user just isn't going accept that as a solution. They also remove the what version of plugin XYZ am I running headache, which for people who actually follow these things and care isn't an issue, but I'm not going to (and can't) assume my mom has QT7 installed, and tell her well just go get it.. that's NOT a good user experience, IMO. That being said, users DO need to be educated about aggregation, but that's a battle that's *still* being fought on the text-blog level. Waiting 5 minutes for a 2 minute clip is an excrutiating experience for an average user, and one that needs to be rectified.

[videoblogging] Re: YouTube - WTF?
Part of the reason they do well is that their interface and features are very good IMHO. I'm not that familiar, but based on a quick perusal, they are doing lots of stuff right (social connections, RSS feed (with enclosures), tags, aggregating, ease-of-use, xml-rpc interface). They are doing lots of stuff wrong too of course (evil EULA, nasty logo bug, wonky flash format). I've not tried to upload a video so I can't comment on how the quality of that part of the service. I'm sure the VCs simply looked at the numbers, if the numbers are there they figure the money will follow. I agree with Verdi in that anyone with a smidgeon of sense wouldn't accept their EULA. Obviousely no one with any professional inclinations at all will use the service for this reason, but if it's easy-to-use and free they'll get lots of folks sharing video. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Verdi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Nov 8, 2005, at 8:13 AM, Michael Sullivan wrote: oh, and of course, let's not forget that the Audience is larger than the pool of Content Creators.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: YouTube - WTF?
Good thoughts, Bill.There are many free and cheap flv encoders out there that maybe are worthy of review if it makes more sense to encode yourself opposed to using web services.One that I have tried for Windows is Riva, http://www.rivavx.comhttp://www.rivavx.com/index.php?encoderL=3sull On 11/8/05, Bill Streeter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm experimenting with them, and here is how I think I can best usethem, baring the fact that they change their business model.I invariably get complaints that people don't have or want or can'tget a current version of QuickTime to view my videos. So I've been looking for a solution to make my stuff more accessible whileretaining QT as my main distribution format. I've tried encodingmp4s without the QuickTime wrapper but doing that loses theadvantage of QuickTime has to download and play at the same time. So what to do? I had thought of maybe setting up another blog withalternative formats on it and a separate RSS feed, but that seemstoo complicated. So what other solutions are there?Well flash, of course. The advantage of flash video is that it's probably the most compatible format there is for Internet viewing.Of course the disadvantage is that it's not easy to create a flashvideo, and it's not easy to download, and it's not compatible withany portable player (at least the popular ones) and aggregators cannot easily pick it up. But it is good for displaying video on aweb page that can be read by a high number of users because it hassuch a large install base.So here is the solution that I'm tinkering with. And this is not my final idea about this, but it's an idea I'm experimenting with.YouTube encodes everything in Flash, and they allow you to easilyembed clips into your page by cutting and pasting a bit of code. Sowhat I am doing is making the YouTube stuff as a kind of the playable thumbnails for my vlog posts and offering a high bit rateencoded QuickTime file for download and for my feed subscribers inthe same post.

[videoblogging] Re: YouTube - WTF?
Yeah, I may end up doing that. I have the capabilities to do it myself. But the fact is that it's dead easy to upload it to YouTube and let them encode it. And there is the added avantage of them hosting the files. I'm on par for hitting a 120 gig this cycle so the more I can save on bandwidth the better. I'm not at my limit but I can see that it's gonna be a real problem at some point so I'm looking at ways of dealing with it now. Bill Streeter LO-FI SAINT LOUIS www.lofistl.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Michael Sullivan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Good thoughts, Bill. There are many free and cheap flv encoders out there that maybe are worthy of review if it makes more sense to encode yourself opposed to using web services. One that I have tried for Windows is Riva, http://www.rivavx.com http://www.rivavx.com/index.php?encoderL=3 sull On 11/8/05, Bill Streeter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm experimenting with them, and here is how I think I can best use them, baring the fact that they change their business model. I invariably get complaints that people don't have or want or can't get a current version of QuickTime to view my videos. So I've been looking for a solution to make my stuff more accessible while retaining QT as my main distribution format. I've tried encoding mp4s without the QuickTime wrapper but doing that loses the advantage of QuickTime has to download and play at the same time. So what to do? I had thought of maybe setting up another blog with alternative formats on it and a separate RSS feed, but that seems too complicated. So what other solutions are there? Well flash, of course. The advantage of flash video is that it's probably the most compatible format there is for Internet viewing. Of course the disadvantage is that it's not easy to create a flash video, and it's not easy to download, and it's not compatible with any portable player (at least the popular ones) and aggregators cannot easily pick it up. But it is good for displaying video on a web page that can be read by a high number of users because it has such a large install base. So here is the solution that I'm tinkering with. And this is not my final idea about this, but it's an idea I'm experimenting with. YouTube encodes everything in Flash, and they allow you to easily embed clips into your page by cutting and pasting a bit of code. So what I am doing is making the YouTube stuff as a kind of the playable thumbnails for my vlog posts and offering a high bit rate encoded QuickTime file for download and for my feed subscribers in the same post. I think it should work because I think flash video is ignored by feedburner as an enclosure if you set your feed to ignore everything but video filesthis may not be the case with all servers but it seems to be the case on the one I'm using.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Does size matter?
I try to keep mine as small as possible just out of courtesy to viewers who are syncing up a large list of feeds to portable devices like the iPod or PSP. Thankfully in most cases, those devices are now coming with very large capacity.

The generalization is very far from what's going on. Some journalistic stories are not fact-checked, but they are in the minority. Some blog entries are great investigative journalism, but they are in the minority. okay..funny thing was...i was trying to say there is a balance between the truth in blogs and the truth in tradiotional media. think of the last time a traditional news outlet covered something you knew intimately (ie videblogging). were all the facts correct? is there a blog that may have the facts more correct becasue the person focuses just on that subject? this isnt about blogs vs traditional media. its about acknowledging that the flow of info is changing. bloggers if anything are fact checkers. Blogging in itself isn't more true than any other medium. It's just as easy to lie to promote an agenda on a blog - probably easier since you don't have to try and sneak your lie past an editor. again, I think this may be a matter of culture. Andreas is in Denmark where their traditional media may be more secure. in the US where i live, you can SEE the spin in every story reported. this is why the Daily Show is one of the most popular shows on US TV...by shining a light on the absurdity of US news coverage. having an editor may mean you MUST twist the truth. blogs do not equal truth. my point was simply that blogs help tell the story. showing my bias, bloggers such as http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/ do a great job piecing together the facts of a storyyou can judge his credibility by going through his archives. Josh Marshall did a recent group of postings on the specific flow of events of the Bush admnistration manufacturing the story of the Niger/nuclear/Iraq connection. when i worked at CNNtrust me...we didnt have time to do weeks of research...you find other people to tell the story...and fact check the best you can. But bloggers are telling the storyand are now can affect how traditional journalism works. wait till we get more video coming from important events around the world. i would kill to see videoblogs from the rioting in Paris. who are these people...what are their motivations?...what does it sound like? jay -- Adventures in Videoblogging URL: http://www.momentshowing.net http://feeds.feedburner.com/Momentshowing Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: Does size matter?
From the other end of the spectrum, I try to keep my videos under 5 minutes or 5MB. Although the numbers are getting smaller, not everybody is on cable/dsl/free or acquired wi-fi. I think that some vloggers have files that are huge because they don't know how to compress a video for other types of viewers. I don't object to large file sizes, if you have content that requires it. I fully support that. I just can't view it. Some vloggers want a certain level of video quality and that does require a high speed connection viewers. Yet, I hold out the candle for those that can create video content that is accessible to a spectrum of viewers. There is no shame in the under 5MB game. It can be a creative challenge if you work it right. As always, it isn't the size of the tool but what you do with it.

[videoblogging] Re: watching personal videos
I would agree on a very general level. It's true that technically the medium itself does not determine a stories truthfulness. But some of those media are layered with a bureaucratic infrastructure that makes the truth harder to get out in some cases. Sometimes what is not reported is as important as what is reported. For instance, there is such a thing as a lie by omission and it happens all the time in traditional media. And more often than not it's not the reporters fault but the system within they work that makes the lie possible.

You are so right Markus. Time is the new bandwidth restriction. Or the old one, or the one that we all can always count on. The think about my PVR (generic TIVO) is that I record all this stuff that never gets watched. There is one night a week that my wife and I really sit down and watch TV and it's kinda like our thing we do together (well you know besides that other thing we do together.) And that's Sunday night, we watch one of the great HBO dramas or comedies.

Also, there are so many bad or negative things on (mainly ads and what passes for news) that I actually enjoy not seeing them. I imagine they will find their way to the vlogosphere in due time (some already have). My wife just got an iPod. Now I send her media. More viewing minutes that have to come from somewhere (for both her and me). So now I am locked in a head-to-head battle with CSI for her attention.

Maybe blogs suck, or videoblogs suck, or... you get the idea, it's all really personal opinion. yeah, we're all learning the balance. blogging wont bring down traditional media. but blogging(text, audio, and video) does offer a greater and greater alternative. ive had a clear realization during the current coverage fo the Fitzgerald indictments: blogging lets the people help tell the story. why? because journalists either are lazy or dont have the time to research. usually they turn to think tanks(heritage foundation), experts, etc for their info now blogs are now becoming a reliable resource...so we start seeing blogs affecting how traditonal media reports. Blogging has done a GREAT job documenting in detail how the current adminstration has led the US into war. and now you see this info popping up on the traditonal outlets. http://movies.crooksandliars.com/Hardball-Runupto.mov bloggers of all sides can go back and forth clarifying the facts. as far as entertainment, sometimes I want to watch a Hollywwod movie/TV show. sometimes i want to watch independent or homemade video. the point is: now i have a choice when there was none.

[videoblogging] Re: Re: watching personal videos
I think we have all come to a realization that journalism as we know it can and is biased and generalized. The difference between traditional journalism and blogging is the perspective. We expect bloggers to express their views and to some extent, expect their views to be biased towards themselves. However we expect traditional journalism to be unbiased and precise, which is quite impossible in itself as humans are not able to be completely without biased. I personally prefer to read different perspectives on the same subject and to come to my own conclusion (ie different blogger perspectives on the current events in France) than to hear my six o'clock news summarize the events and underlying reasons for me as I'm sure it would have some kind of spin on it. Cheers, Joan - www.rantingsofjoan.blogspot.com Message: 18 Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2005 18:20:02 -0500 From: Jay dedman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Re: watching personal videos Exactly, and the same for the average blog entry. Jay was setting things up to mean 'journalism == lazy, unresearched stories; blogs == The Truth(tm)'. The generalization is very far from what's going on. Some journalistic stories are not fact-checked, but they are in the minority. Some blog entries are great investigative journalism, but they are in the minority. okay..funny thing was...i was trying to say there is a balance between the truth in blogs and the truth in tradiotional media. think of the last time a traditional news outlet covered something you knew intimately (ie videblogging). were all the facts correct? is there a blog that may have the facts more correct becasue the person focuses just on that subject? this isnt about blogs vs traditional media. its about acknowledging that the flow of info is changing. bloggers if anything are fact checkers. Blogging in itself isn't more true than any other medium. It's just as easy to lie to promote an agenda on a blog - probably easier since you don't have to try and sneak your lie past an editor. again, I think this may be a matter of culture. Andreas is in Denmark where their traditional media may be more secure. in the US where i live, you can SEE the spin in every story reported. this is why the Daily Show is one of the most popular shows on US TV...by shining a light on the absurdity of US news coverage. having an editor may mean you MUST twist the truth. blogs do not equal truth. my point was simply that blogs help tell the story. showing my bias, bloggers such as http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/ do a great job piecing together the facts of a storyyou can judge his credibility by going through his archives. Josh Marshall did a recent group of postings on the specific flow of events of the Bush admnistration manufacturing the story of the Niger/nuclear/Iraq connection. when i worked at CNNtrust me...we didnt have time to do weeks of research...you find other people to tell the story...and fact check the best you can. But bloggers are telling the storyand are now can affect how traditional journalism works. wait till we get more video coming from important events around the world. i would kill to see videoblogs from the rioting in Paris. who are these people...what are their motivations?...what does it sound like? jay Yahoo!

Most likely, any web-based aggregators will go with Flash for video. On the other hand, Java's penatration rate within browsers is unknown and probably inconsistent in terms of versioning. There's one Java aggregator that I've found that does a decent job, even though it's beta, called I/ON: I/ON looked quite cool when I saw it demo'd. In the most recent Macromedia stats that I've seen (a few months old) they listed Flash at 97% and Java around 80%. Quicktime was around 60-70%. To adjust for the difference between any install at all and one that's in working condition I would knock 20% off. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get Bzzzy! (real tools to help you find a job).

I'm actually surprised that Java is higher than Quicktime, no matter how you cut it. But I know that the QT number you quote has been fairly steady for some time now. -- Michael Shipp * Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Blog: digitalmerging - Tech. Media.
