The number of factors, complexity and randomness of human

volitional and self-determined, therefore self-creating.  So future

Don't forget that VLC ( http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ ) will play h264.
It sometimes has problems on my system with some audio codecs, but
h264 video itself now plays fine.

Personally I avoid Quicktime as a player wherever possible. Quicktime
(whatever version) seems not to care _at_all_ about keeping audio and
video synchronized, and drifts into unusability within about 20-30
seconds. It's not a pure performance issue, as other players can
handle much higher data rates on the same machine without problems.

 My suggestion on the porn:
 Have a ratings system, so that everyone who submits a feed has to tag it
 rated G rated X or whatever.
 If a feed is rated X, replace any thumbnails with Adult Content or some
 such in a graphic.
 If someone clicks on an X-rated feed, make them go through a pop-up stating
 that they are over 18 (unless you start doing credit card verification -
 which I don't recommend - that's about the most protection you cna
 realistically offer).

I don't think it would work leaving the categorizing to the submitter.
I can imagine plenty of reasons why someone might (deliberately or
accidentally) mis-categorize something.

The way the net seems to be going at the the moment is to use the
power of the numbers. I'd suggest a system where anything can be
tagged with anything by anybody, but certain tags are
standardized/promoted and processed as specially significant. So even
if the original submitter rates a piece as mild humour, many others
might rate it as violent porn.

Directories and aggregators could then make sensible decisions based
on the weight of public opinion.

Oh, and _please_ folks, let whatever system is developed apply
tags/ratings to _individual_items_ rather than whole feeds. However
tempting it may seem to simplify the problem by blocking/allowing a
whole feed, in practice items in a feed vary wildly.

Perhaps some sort of quarantine or moderation queue for feeds that
have had items tagged with these kinds of attributes. That way worried
readers/viewers can wait until more sturdy individuals have had a
chance to look at stuff.

Yes, of course, but... I don't think that any of the sites which
purport to review everything before allowing it to be posted have set
themselves a reasonable task. As video on the Internet explodes
exponentially, no single group or company (except maybe Google) can
afford the human resources to review that much footage. 

I'm assuming that the rest of your post advocates reactive tagging,
where something would be reviewed only if flagged as nasty by someone.
Which does seem the only sensible approach, as long as you don't get
mischief-makers randomly tagging everything as rotten just to keep you
busy.

I don't think the issue with Barbie is copyright. I think it's a trade
mark issue. And trademarks a quite a bit different than copyright
under the law. Under copyright (which is registered with the Library
of Congress, in the US--although it needn't be to be legal) you own it
no matter what unless you overtly give it up.

Trademarks are different. Trademarks need to be protected to remain
your property. So if someone starts to use your Trademark and you
don't do due diligence to stop it, then the Trademark can cease to be
your trademark and become a generic mark that anyone can use. Thus
explains why companies so jealously guard against infringement of
their trademark. Because under law if they don't they can loose them.

So no doubt this was an issue of not just copyright but also of
trademark.

Archive.org's aims to capture history do not mean they can afford to
pretend their are no laws that may affect the content they can legally
host.
 
The internet would be very different today if all the laws in all
countries were always followed to the letter. Clearly that doesnt
happen, but responsible sites that dont want to lose all their money
in court have to do some sort of risk assessment. In a case where
theres already been legal action against a very similar type of video,
I think its easy to see why they may of decided it wasnt worth it.
 
A possible justification could go along the lines of 'would you rather
us ditch a small part of history or have us lose the entire archive
due to the cost of fighting lawsuits'?
 
Of course all this is just speculation, I have no idea why that video
actually was removed or the though processes behind the decision.

 It is really outrageous that they took your vlog off.  And, I say
that, as someone who doesn't fully agree with your viewpoint.

 Actually, I watched this vlog and I felt it treated men unfairly.
It made me mad.  That is good.  Something that provokes you and
challenges you to think is good whether you like it or not.

   Dear Patron:

   You recently uploaded an item to one of our
   collections. Curators had
   to remove it, possibly due to one of the following
   reasons:

   -Rights status unclear
   -Rights status appears inappropriate for our
   collections
   -Inappropriate content (eg, pornography)
   -Uploader requested the removal
   -Item content was empty or broken

2005-12-02 Thread Michael Ridley



Well I certainly agree that people should be allowed to put whatever content they so choose on their web site, filtered or not. My issue is with this spreading conventional wisdom that seems to state that we all have some inherent, deep, and fundamental responsiblity to sanitize what we can and firewall what we can't in abject terror of the remote possibility that some small child might stumble upon it.
Certainly if some private directory or archive chooses not to include pornographic material (or any other kind) that is their perogative. But this sense that if one chooses not to do so they are in some way morally inferior is itself repugnant to me.
And again the question of whether or not it's wise to conduct said parental filtering of the world for children is a whole other topic of discussion. And a can of worms probably best unopened. While I would agree that showing a 4-year-old Full Metal Jacket is on the gratuitous side, I think you equally do a disservice to one's (older) children by trying to shield them too much. After all, this world is a horrible, mean, petty, shallow, and opportunistic place that will chew you up, shred you, and spit you back out again for round two if you let down your guard. It's all well and good that we try to create a haven in our home that's as sheltered from that cruel reality as we can. But raising a kid in a cocoon and then thrusting them out, helpless and unprepared, to be bled dry by the world once they graduate from school doesn't seem like such a wise choice.

However, there are those who do feel responsible for what is seen on
their site (not least because they could face legal liabilities),
that's their choice as much as it's yours to do nothing to filter.

It's a doctrine which puts forth the concept that if you are going to
have children, then that's an active exercise which requires full
participation for approximately 16 to 18 years.

  I'm assuming that the rest of your post advocates reactive tagging, where
 something would be reviewed only if flagged as nasty by someone. Which does
 seem the only sensible approach, as long as you don't get mischief-makers
 randomly tagging everything as rotten just to keep you busy.

Yeah there are a few options for this. There are some products that

way of doing this. You can capture direct to a laptop HD via firewire. 
I don't know what options there are to do this on a Mac but you can do

all you need to do (on a mac atleast) with FCP is go into your capture settings, within log and capture, and change device control to "non-controllable" device. this avoids final cut looking for timecode from a tape.  "capture now" begins loading material live to you're hard drive. which is nice.-dl--http://pouringdown.blogspot.com/http://mookievlog.blogspot.com/On Dec 2, 2005, at 9:46 AM, Bill Streeter wrote:  Yeah there are a few options for this. There are some products that  are camera mounted direct to disk hard drives. They're kind of  expensive, at least the ones I've seen at BH photo. There is a budget  way of doing this. You can capture direct to a laptop HD via firewire.  I don't know what options there are to do this on a Mac but you can do  it via Final Cut Pro or Express or iMovie on a mac very easily. This  is a great option for stationary or studio work but not so good if you  need the camera to be mobile.

[videoblogging] Vlog porn - my fix for now: comments?

2005-12-02 Thread petertheman
Hi all,
so I implemented a fix (it's not live yet, but will be next week).
Here are some screenshots:

http://flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/69373519/

http://flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/69373437/

http://flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/69373386

What it does is put a 'parental advisory thumbnail on feeds that we
have flagged as porn (it is surprisingly easy to catch most porn feeds
and flag them manually). If you subscribe to this feed or queue its
videos, you get the real thumbnails.

This addresses the problem of innocently browsing Mefeedia and seeing
pictures that can be fairly heavy, especially before breakfast. It
doesn't censor any feeds in any way apart from just not showing the
picture - you can still subscribe to the feeds, watch videos. If you
want to. But it does make browsing videoblogs a nicer experience,
and de-emphasizes the inevitable porn feeds.

Of course this is just my first stab at fixing the problem, and this
approach will evolve over the coming months and years. What do you
guys and girls think about this approach for now? Does it work? Does
it address your concerns? Would you show Mefeedia to your
kids/students as a place to find videoblogs?

Cheers,
Peter

[videoblogging] What are vlog shows like Rock n Roll TV?

2005-12-02 Thread Randolfe Wicker





I just watched "Episode #8 - Windows Version" on my 
Mac (by mistake). These shows have both windows and iPod versions. 
They have professional looking graphics. They seem to have access to some 
of the rock stars.

Are these productions of entertainment want-to-be's 
? Or are they slick promotional vehicles for big time music 
producers?

Obviously, they have invested time, professional 
skills and money into producing them. However, they have a "creative 
commons license"

And, regarding this last episode, which features a 
rock singer performing while several scantily-clad sexy youngwomen kick a 
middle-aged slob restrained on the floor, does that "creative commons" license 
give any real rights to the snippets of the banned music video?

Another show that also looks like it might be a 
slick promotion for an existing cable channel is Tech TV. 

Could anyone fill me in on this?

petertheman wrote:
 Hey Jay,
 yes, I noticed it as well. It was inevitable, I am actually surprised
 it took this long..

 Any comments? 

Well, it's sad, but as a directory, I suppose it's something you have to 
deal with. Some ideas...

I wouldn't go with G, PG, X type ratings... As mentioned, 'adult' 
doesn't always mean X, etc. Perhaps following the iTunes model of 
marking things as 'mature' or 'explicit' or whatever might work.

For people not logged in, I would filter out all 'mature' content. For 
people who are logged in, provide a checkbox for whether they want 
'mature' content displayed to them or not. Don't the various search 
engines do something similar with the results they display?

There's a distinction between 'porn' and 'kid-safe' - I mean, if it's a 
video of someone fully clothed, screaming obscenities and being violent, 
it's probably not something I want my kids to see. (And I *definitely* 
don't want them seeing porn.)

I've noticed a few podcasters will often note in the beginning of their

 Hi all,

 What it does is put a 'parental advisory thumbnail on feeds that we
 have flagged as porn (it is surprisingly easy to catch most porn feeds
 and flag them manually). If you subscribe to this feed or queue its
 videos, you get the real thumbnails.
 
 This addresses the problem of innocently browsing Mefeedia and seeing
 pictures that can be fairly heavy, especially before breakfast. It
 doesn't censor any feeds in any way apart from just not showing the
 picture - you can still subscribe to the feeds, watch videos. If you
 want to. But it does make browsing videoblogs a nicer experience,
 and de-emphasizes the inevitable porn feeds.
 
 Of course this is just my first stab at fixing the problem, and this
 approach will evolve over the coming months and years. What do you
 guys and girls think about this approach for now? Does it work? Does
 it address your concerns? Would you show Mefeedia to your
 kids/students as a place to find videoblogs?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Porn on mefeedia?? - Porn on blogtelevision too

2005-12-02 Thread Jay dedman
 I have to say I feel concerned about the free distribution of adult
 and violent videos by individuals, versus the law-abiding, lawyer-
 retaining mainstream producers who have to keep on file documents
 regarding the actor's age, animal welfare, explosives permits, etc.

 So my question is; How do we know that the person(s) in the
 submitted videos are adult-consenting actors, or if they're possibly
 actual victims of a crime or abuse?

you dont.
its the internet, a free exchange of everything.
bad things will show up. there is darkness.

several years ago, there was a site called bumfights.com...where you
could buy a DVD of homeless alcoholics and crackheads doing crazy shit
in order to feed their addiction.
pulling out their own teeth, getting tattoos on their forehead, taking
a shit in the middle of a busy street. it was filmed by some SoCal
skaters.
They sold thousands of DVD;s.
and then they got sued by activist lawyers on behalf of the homeless guys.

but the site is still up. bumfights.com. i guess they won the court case.
should there be laws against having this on the web? no.
so much more good comes from this unfettered, unformatted playground as well.
there are already plenty of laws in the world that keep people safe.
we can use those.
we dont need different laws for the internet to curb people's behavior.

[videoblogging] Bad internet archive URLs

2005-12-02 Thread petertheman
I've added some code to Mefeedia to check for bad internet archive
URLs and provide fixes for the vloggers. It'll be out next week,
here's a screenshot of a feeds details page:
http://flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/69379495/
and
http://flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/69379752/
(Michael, those are yours!)

So if you're not sure you might have used some bad Archive URLs in the
past (most people have), next week when this is live go check your
details page. (or you can go to the beta site today, I'm sure you can
figure out the URL ;)

I suspect we are going to 
soon have questions of "legal responsibility" arising with those who host free 
posting sites.

Are they responsible for 
libelous, obscene or criminal material published on thier site? Would 
stated guidelines (i.e"Those using our services are expected to obey and respect 
all laws.") be a defense? Or would they be responsible for removing 
something only after a complaint was filed and it was brought to their 
attention?

I think "leaving 
categorizing to the submitter" would work if guidelines said "works considered 
to be adult in nature" should be so labeled. Works containing overt 
sexuality and/or nudity should also be labeled, 
etc.

I've seen sites where you 
have to declare you are over eighteen years of age to enter and view. 
Wouldn't such techniques work with saucy vlogs?

[videoblogging] Re: Porn on mefeedia??

2005-12-02 Thread petertheman

 I wouldn't go with G, PG, X type ratings... As mentioned, 'adult' 
 doesn't always mean X, etc. Perhaps following the iTunes model of 
 marking things as 'mature' or 'explicit' or whatever might work.
 
 For people not logged in, I would filter out all 'mature' content. For 
 people who are logged in, provide a checkbox for whether they want 
 'mature' content displayed to them or not. Don't the various search 
 engines do something similar with the results they display?

Good ideas. I am taking the light approach here: take it easy on the
fixes. Step by step. In a month or two, I am sure we'll add some more
features.

 There's a distinction between 'porn' and 'kid-safe' 

yes. The kidsafe tag is a good example:
http://mefeedia.com/tags/kidsafe


 know that I'm sometimes not even sure if I should want videos in
FireANT 
 when my kids are in the room.

Yep. It's a complex issue. I just want to make sure we provide
solutions that scale and that work, but don't censor. There is enough
censorship out there.

  Are these productions of
entertainment want-to-be's ?  Or are they slick promotional vehicles
for big time music producers?
   
  Obviously, they have invested time,
professional skills and money into producing them.  However, they have
a "creative commons license"
   
  And, regarding this last episode,
which features a rock singer performing while several scantily-clad
sexy young women kick a middle-aged slob restrained on the floor, does
that "creative commons" license give any real rights to the snippets of
the banned music video?
   
  Another show that also looks like it
might be a slick promotion for an existing cable channel is Tech TV.  
   
  Could anyone fill me in on this?

[videoblogging] Yahoo! Video Search for vlog

2005-12-02 Thread Steve Garfield
Happy Friday everyone,
Just saw a link in my referrer log from Yahoo!

It lead me to the Yahoo! Video Search results page for a search for 
'vlog'

http://tinyurl.com/d56m7

or

http://video.search.yahoo.com/search/video?_adv_prop=videoa
mp;x=opei=UTF-8va=vlogfmt=mpegfmt=qt
;sz=alldur=allvst=0vm=p

The interesting thing is that the Yahoo! results page allows you to

 Yep. It's a complex issue. I just want to make sure we provide
 solutions that scale and that work, but don't censor. There is enough
 censorship out there.

Agreed. I'm in favor of free-speech, and against censorship. I see this 
more as a matter of classifying content, which is what people seem to 
always suggest they want anyway, and why tagging has gotten so big in 2005.

Re: [videoblogging] amazing multilingual overlays on the soundtracks!!

2005-12-02 Thread Randolfe Wicker





It is interesting. I guess our ears listen to 
the language we understand while buffering out the language we don't. 
Actually, this is better than not being to understand what someone is 
saying. Nevertheless, the other language bouncing around in the background 
is somewhat annoying.

What I wonder about is whether watching a lot of 
video like this would slowly enable you to learn the other language? That 
would be worth studying. A lot of Spanish-speaking immigrants used to 
learn English by watching movies with spokenEnglish and Spanish 
subtitles.

 We want videoblogging to be a positive experience, and limiting

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Porn Shmorn. Grow up! There's real life going on.

2005-12-02 Thread Michael Ridley



Of course it will. In the same way that the kids section of Blockbuster interests parents. There seems to be this view in our culture lately that kids are like little grownups and they just go and do whatever they want and so society has to protect them. That perspective is...not even wrong..it's just non-sensical. Parents make the rules. Parents enforce the limits.
If there is a kids section of a web site, then presumably that's what the parents would sit down and look at with their children. Just like parents will steer their children to the kids section of the video store. It's not like parents just let their young children loose out in the world and let them wander around XXX movie theatres all day long. Perhaps some parents DO do that, but that's not my problem - that's their problem for being bad parents. And I'm pretty sure that if you have a 4 year old wandering around the red light district trying to get into peep shows, having a law requiring the establishment to card them and not let them in is probably not going to put that kid back on the right path and keep them from car jacking me in 10 years. They're probably well on that path already due to very poor parenting.

2005-12-02 Thread Enric
Is there a correlation between a child going to a peep show and
turning into a thief later?  Don't laws already prohibit adult
establishments from allowing minors in?  Aren't they already zoned in
cities?  Should those laws be eliminated because they restrict the
choices and/or availablity of adults?

Definately, it's usually a mistake to wait until a perfect solution is
constructed; you miss on things like HTML, RSS, OPML, etc.  I think
it's also an error to see sex as a all or nothing proposition:  either
it's completely available and al is allowed or completely restricted
and walled in.  Human being do have the capability to make rational,
objective decisions and policy on material that denigrates a group of
people whether by race, sex, ethnicity, etc.

2005-12-02 Thread Joshua Paul


Not that this thread hasn't run it's course, but I do like one suggestion that was made, and I sincerely hope that Peter takes it into serious consideration. The suggestion was to "safe filter" by default, much the way Google does for image searches. Considering how "public" (both figuratively and financially) Google is, I feel they devised a very good solution; the filter is easy enough to disable should you desire to.My 2¢.- joshpaulOn Dec 2, 2005, at 9:17 AM, Michael Sullivan wrote: the kid can also google porn and BOOYA!!of course some kids may be a little too curious too soon...but we should discuss the issue broadly and generalize, knowing that their are always exceptions.no solution will ever be perfect.  On 12/2/05, Enric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Pete Prodoehl [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jay dedman wrote:    Maybe the opposite approach would be logical?

there'll be two and then it'll backfire and there'll be none).

I'll take three of the latest Danish corporate blogs as examples. They're  
not videoblogs, but the point is the same.

  - Arken is a Danish museum. Their blog is written by a handful of  
employees and they write about what goes on at a museum and other  
art-related matters. It's a company, but why shouldn't they be listed in  
an Art category? Their blog is at: URL:  
http://arken.blogs.com/arken_blog/ 

  - The Danish Patent and Trademark Office opened a weblog URL:  
http://www.dkpto.dk/weblog/  where 17 out of their 240 knowledge workers  
blog about matters related to intellectual property laws. Why shouldn't  
they be included in a Legal category alongside the private lawyer?

  - Arla, the most evil Danish corporation (they have something like 90% of  
the milk production in Denmark), started three weblogs. One is authored by  
a farmer and his wife. They blog about life on the farm and how it is to  
be a part of that big a corporation (actually every farmer is a co-owner).  
Why shouldn't they be listed under Farm life on equal terms with the  
indie farmer? URL: http://www.arla.dk/weblogs/baekgaarden 

I keep seeing this latent assumption that if a company is behind a  
(video)blog then they don't have anything worthwhile to say. It's just not  
true. Of course you have to let the company know when they fuck up (if  
they start sending 30 commercial clips out and calling it a vlog), but  
this idea that as a company they can't make vlogs is just annoying to no  
end.

Re: [videoblogging] German Mobuzz Ripoff - Ehrensenf

2005-12-02 Thread Richard Show



My buddy Bill Streeter pointed out that my name was evoked in the
middle of this thread, therefore, I would like to offer a few
observations/comments 

1) Would Rocketboom do as well with an equally beautiful woman who was
not as clever, smart, and funny as Amanda - I seriously doubt it
2) Would Rocketboom do as well, if Andrew did not produce/direct/film etc - I seriously doubt it
3) I've been considering new slogans for my vlog and I can't decide
between overweight (yet equally witty, and funny) bearded
man... or ignorant, uncool, ugly male (both have their charm)
4) I can't help but feel there is an underlying very-subtle current in
this discussion that implies that my appearance and age are somehow in
contrast to Amanda's youth and attractiveness. However, I will have you
know that my wife thinks I am quite hot, and often refers to me at eye
candy. I think you can see why she would think of that based on some
those rare videos when I offer a glimpse of my desirable bod

http://www.richardshow.com/2005/08/mountain-streamwatch-video-maureen-and.html

5) Also, had you been studying my videos in detail, which, of course, I
would recommend, you would find that the richardboom did make an
appearance on a Harry Potter video, though my beautiful wife (who
thinks I'm hot) played Amanda's role

"if i do a video

Actually, you violate copyright when you 
have a song playing on the radio in your car while doing a vlog. You violate 
copyright when you film in a bar and an annoying bothersome boombox is playing 
in the background.

You won't have any problems just vlogging 
such stuff. However, if you wanted to turn your vlogs into some sort of 
theatrical release, you would have all sorts of copyright 
conflicts.

  different today if all the laws in all  countries were

   in court have to do some sort of risk assessment. In a case 
  where  theres already been legal action against a very 
  similar type of video,  I think its easy to see why 
  they may of decided it wasnt worth it.   A 
  possible justification could go along the lines of 'would you rather 
   us ditch a small part of history or have us lose the entire 
  archive  due to the cost of fighting 
  lawsuits'?   Of course all this is just 
  speculation, I have no idea why that video  actually 
  was removed or the though processes behind the decision.

For me it's the thin edge of the wedge, and I think folks are focusing 
more on oh no! it's porn! -- where's the line drawn? How long until 
there's spvlogs, etc. Having a system in place to filter down -- not out 
-- things that negatively impact the community and tools aren't a bad 
thing, imho.

 of course some kids may be a little too curious too soon...
 but we should discuss the issue broadly and generalize, knowing that 
 their are always exceptions.
 no solution will ever be perfect.

 this could take care of most of the aforementioned issues

   great idea. very proactive.
   eric rice and ryanne made a kidsafe feed a while back for
 eric's kids.
   http://video.ericrice.com/videoblogs/ANTresearch.mov
   but i think the feed died out.
   see this is a great idea: a kidsafe directory.
   itll come as content grows.
  
   im not interested in censoring, but in organizing and educating.
   everything will exist. we can simply chose where.
 
  Well, we already have yahooligans.yahoo.com
 http://yahooligans.yahoo.com, what about
  kids.mefeedia.com http://kids.mefeedia.com? :)
 
  It would be cool to be able to point kids to a videoblogging

[videoblogging] Re: Porn Shmorn. Grow up! There's real life going on.

2005-12-02 Thread Eric Rice
I agree.

All I can do in this world is protect my own kids. I make the rules. So when I 
populate 
FireANT, I'm putting in the things like the kidsafe feed (which could be 
abused--but that's 
what parenting entails)

I also have a client that has TA in their video podcast. Mine is not to 
question why--- 
there's some content and there's an audience for that content.

One of the challenges I face is not being able to necessarily list that content 
in all places. 
And in theory, I can't even use OurMedia, since it could be argued that I am 
commercial (I 
constantly bring up the question: where does indie end and commercial begin? )

At any rate, I know it's difficult to always control everything a kid sees.. 
after all, I'm only 5 
years into the game. But there are a whole bunch of peripheral issues with 
that. Is the 
content wrong or right? I'm in California, where probably a lot more of my 
neighbors see 
no issue with the famous postcards from buster episode that could be 
viewed 
completely the opposite by some similar parent of age and demographic in 
another part of 
the country and/or world.

On the other hand, I do like reasonable ratings, either boolean or a sliding 
scale 1 for G, 2 
for PG (great for art/criminal/education issues of adult nature---) 3 for 
mature... it's not 
to try and label it but also to help clarify what it is... we do this with NSFW 
tags. And 
besides, does NSFW make a great marketing vehicle? ;-)

Just my thoughts.

 OK well now this is my pet peeve.  I want everyone to shut the fuck up about

 worms that I am going to complete ignore because it's beside the point.
 
 The point is - it is not my responsibility to filter my site (or my life in
 general) in the event that some child might happen upon it.  There's this
 concept called parental responsibility.  It's a doctrine which puts forth
 the concept that if you are going to have children, then that's an active
 exercise which requires full participation for approximately 16 to 18 years.
 
 If you are so concerned about what material of an objectionable nature your
 kids may see, then set limits and don't let them see those things.  Sort of
 like how you might not let them wander around the red light district of
 Amsterdam on their own at 4 AM.  Same concept.  The correct solution here is
 for parents to step up and make rules and set limits, not to have some
 arbitrarily large net of responsibility that ensares and inhibits the rights
 of all adults everywhere.
 
 I will not be subjugated by the delicate and impressionable nature of 4 year
 olds.  That's a non-starter for me.

check out the movie site

Last year I was a projectionist at the Cinequest Film Festival in the University Theatre . A rucuous group of poeple came in, yelling, shouting, joking and having fun. Then they showed the film, "Missionary Positions" which I thought was well done and honest. I don't agree that porn is "bad" or "good".

Re: [videoblogging] Porn Shmorn. Grow up! There's real life going on.

2005-12-02 Thread Jay dedman
I need to learn how to speak about my feelings of commercialization in
the media.
it never quite comes out right.
nothing wrong with busness and profit and money...
what is wrong is the amount of negative influence, explotation, and
lack of respect for the community for which a company lives in.
but as my punk upbringing has taught me: its not what they sell, its
what we buy.

 Thinking that companies will push out feeds of the 30 second commercials
 you see on tv is a little silly. No company is that fucking stupid (well,
 there'll be two and then it'll backfire and there'll be none).

i meant more the spam blogs. just like a majority of email is
spam...my fear is that youll see feeds full of little commercials for
whatever spam 'sells'.

but as Sull mentioned, i can see tradtional companies sponsoring
videoblogs that are entertaining or informattive.
The Circuit City Tech Review where two cool, alternative hosts talk
about the latest camcorders.

snip
 I keep seeing this latent assumption that if a company is behind a
 (video)blog then they don't have anything worthwhile to say. It's just not
 true. Of course you have to let the company know when they fuck up (if
 they start sending 30 commercial clips out and calling it a vlog), but
 this idea that as a company they can't make vlogs is just annoying to no
 end.

companies in the US have a very bad reputation for making content that
is authentic or useful. usually they add their image/concept content
to popular entertainment.
I must look at their content in the subway car when i ride to work. I
got to see their content on every phone booth. I hear it in the cab's
radio between the news updates. i got to see it when i read the

and what do i gain from their content?

i cant think the last time a large US company made a piece of content
that was worthwhile.
when they do, ill be the first to subscribe.

to create/sponsor material that is useful.

let me rephrase.
companies in the US have a very bad reputation for making content that
is not authentic or useful.

usually they add their image/concept content
 to popular entertainment.
 I must look at their content in the subway car when i ride to work. I
 got to see their content on every phone booth. I hear it in the cab's
 radio between the news updates. i got to see it when i read the

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Porn on mefeedia??

2005-12-02 Thread Randolfe Wicker





This discussion about labeling reminds me of 
C-Span's coverage of a report on video games. They have a system with 
terms to describe games not for those under eighteen, excessive violence, 
etc. But, they find that most retailers (Best Buy being the lone 
exception) sell these games rated for adults to eight year old "undercover 
shoppers".

They also found that parents really didn't know 
what some of the "labels" meant. Indeed, just like all these fine lines 
between "adult" and XXX and "kidsafe" and "not good for work" and "GP" 
etc.

They found that the categories filmmakers used were 
the most familiar to the general public and actually suggested the film rating 
system be applied to video games.

Even with films, you have all these nuances. 
I love the warnings on Sundance that say "brief nudity". Would that cover 
Janet Jackson's tit or would you have to see some full frontal 
nude?

I even think they have a label "some 
violence". Does that mean only one person gets decapitated? All of 
these terms are so subjective.

  mefeedia??
   I wouldn't go with G, PG, X type ratings... As 
  mentioned, 'adult'  doesn't always mean X, etc. Perhaps following the 
  iTunes model of  marking things as 'mature' or 'explicit' or whatever 
  might work.  For people not logged in, I would filter out all 
  'mature' content. For  people who are logged in, provide a checkbox 
  for whether they want  'mature' content displayed to them or not. 
  Don't the various search  engines do something similar with the 
  results they display?Good ideas. I am taking the "light" approach 
  here: take it easy on thefixes. Step by step. In a month or two, I am sure 
  we'll add some morefeatures. There's a distinction between 
  'porn' and 'kid-safe' yes. The kidsafe tag is a good example:http://mefeedia.com/tags/kidsafe 
  know that I'm sometimes not even sure if I should want videos inFireANT 
   when my kids are in the room.Yep. It's a complex issue. I 
  just want to make sure we providesolutions that scale and that work, but 
  don't censor. There is enoughcensorship out

They have... auditions...?

This is an interesting point.  Say what you want about Insane Films as a 
whole, this one vlog was just pure porn.  In fact, they have tried to hide 
it and it might be blocked or not available on their site.  I found it 
through searching the Internet or through an aggregator.

This fellow might have been doing a documentary on auditions for a gang 
bang movie but the way he covered the activity (camera angles, etc) were in 
the best porn tradition.

I know that a couple institutional names were listed on the credits.  I'm 
sure they would be mortified if confronted publicly by some crusading 
anti-porn group.

It's a good idea, but requires more coding than I can muster right
now.. Will probably implement this in January..

Peter

 Not that this thread hasn't run it's course, but I do like one  
 suggestion that was made, and I sincerely hope that Peter takes it  
 into serious consideration. The suggestion was to safe filter by  
 default, much the way Google does for image searches. Considering how  
 public (both figuratively and financially) Google is, I feel they  
 devised a very good solution; the filter is easy enough to disable  
 should you desire to.
 
 My 2¢.

see this is a great idea: a kidsafe directory.
itll come as content grows.
   
im not interested in censoring, but in organizing and educating.
everything will exist. we can simply chose where.
  
   Well, we already have yahooligans.yahoo.com, what about

   It would be cool to be able to point kids to a videoblogging

Through the group yahoo website, you can see a list of members. You
cant see their full email addresses but you can contact them through
the yahoo system. To have a list that included full emails  could be
downloaded or cutpasted, would be a bad idea because it would be wide

Re: [videoblogging] Porn Shmorn. Grow up! There's real life going on.

2005-12-02 Thread Randolfe Wicker





All commercial blogs/vlogs are not evil. What 
amuses me is when a viewer watches a commercial vlog and doesn't even realize 
it.

There was a "Wild Girls of Thailand" vlog a few 
days ago with some topless nudity, etc. and which ended with a still that said: 
"Get the DVD @ ". Actually, it was one of the "most watched" videos of the 
day.

This fact seemed to be missed by a couple people 
posting comments who only said things like the vlog was "exploitative", 
etc.

If vlogs like that one "paid off", we might find 
ourselves swamped with vlogs that were nothing more than trailers/commercials 
for soft porn.

[videoblogging] ffmpegX for mac now supports ipod h264

2005-12-02 Thread Steve Watkins
New version of ffmpegx came out the other day that apparently supports
ipod h264, Im just giving it a try now. Its probably a bit too nerdy
for some, hopefully iSquint will be able to learn the h264 ipod
secrets used in this ffmpegX, and also add ipod 264 support.

ffmpegx:

Meanwhile on the PC Nero Recode is still giving me the fastest and

H264 will take over quickly, I think, because its that much better.

Are there stastics somewhere tracking the adoption level of Quicktime

My experience is that, tho I think the H264 looks better at smaller
sizes, it's slow as dirt to encode. At least with QT... haven't tried
any other encoders.

Re: [videoblogging] Yahoo! Video Search for vlog

I scrolled through the Yahoo Vlog search 
results.

How do they find that content? A lot of well 
known vloggers weren't represented at all. There was a vlogger named 
"dooser" who seemed to have one to three vlogs on nearly every 
page.

I noticed a lot of the files were very small. 
I wonder if you know how these search engines work? I didn't see a lot of

Actually, all of their video search is (supposedly) powered/driven by 
Media RSS. I.e. no media-rss extension, no inclusion in their search. 
That's my understanding, at least (I was part of the group that defined 
it..)

Something that is never mentioned in all this talk 
about "kids and adult content" is that if they are "too young", they won't find 
it interesting. If they find it interesting, they are probably old enough 
to be viewing it.

That was what was really wacky about that JPEG with 
two kids barely old enough to walk and talk supposedly saying what their email 
(porno) content was. They weren't old enough to go on a computer. If 
they were on a computer, they wouldn't know what the words meant.

  Perhaps. I'd argue that that decision is up to their 
  parents. I firstgot online in 1992 or so, and I guess I would have 
  been about 12 or 13at the time. My parents didn't choose to be 
  involved in what I was orwas not looking at, content-wise. Granted 
  you could say that in 1992there wasn't much general awareness of the 
  "dangers" of being online,but my dad was savvy enough to know what was 
  up..he just didn't feelthe need to make an issue of it, because he felt I 
  had the commonsense to make appropriate choices.But who knows, for 
  some other parents, sure maybe they want to filterthat out. But the 
  point is, the onus is on the consumer (parent) noton the content 
  provider. As the saying goes, if you don't like it,don't watch

  There's this  concept called parental

  then that's an active  exercise which requires 
  full participation for approximately 16 to 18

[videoblogging] Battery life of iPod Video using H.264 ?

2005-12-02 Thread ecomputerd
I've written before about this. I think we may be using the wrong 
metric for mobile video with the coming of H.264. My theory is that 
file size is no longer supreme. H.264 takes more processing power to 
decode. And processing power generally means less battery life 
(although this can be mitigated somewhat using hardware decoding).

I think it's generally agreed that H.264 quality per file size is 
better than alternatives. But what about quality per processor MHz 
or more relavently quality per battery hour of playback?

If you take a video and encode in H.264 for the iPod to a certain 
level of quality (subjective, I know) then take the same video and 
encode in the other format that is iPod video compatible (3ivX?) to 
the SAME PERCEIVED quality level. Generally, this would mean a higher 
bitrate (using the same FPS and resolution).

What is the difference in battery life of the iPod Video when playing 
the H.264 versus the 3ivX, for example?

Anyone care to try this?

Yes there is a members database at the group page on Yahoo Groups. 
Also Share has posted here several times in the last couple of 
weeks. I'm surprised you didn't see the messages.

 I just watched Episode #8 - Windows Version on my Mac (by

have professional looking graphics.  They seem to have access to 
some of the rock stars.
 
 Are these productions of entertainment want-to-be's ?  Or are 
they slick promotional vehicles for big time music producers?
 
 Obviously, they have invested time, professional skills and 
money into producing them.  However, they have a creative commons 
license
 
 And, regarding this last episode, which features a rock singer 
performing while several scantily-clad sexy young women kick a 
middle-aged slob restrained on the floor, does that creative 
commons license give any real rights to the snippets of the banned 
music video?
 
 Another show that also looks like it might be a slick 
promotion for an existing cable channel is Tech TV.  
 
 Could anyone fill me in on this?

[videoblogging] Re: ffmpegX for mac now supports ipod h264

2005-12-02 Thread Steve Watkins
Its a combination of factors. H264 is more demanding to encode and
decode, but also Apple have not made the best job of it. There are
faster h264 encoders than quicktime, and if you can live with
single-pass rather than dualpass, it helps.

Andrew's experience is due to the encoder used by ffmpegx in ipod h264
mode, its an encoder called x264. Similar software for windows and
linux that uses x264 should give similar results.

And also the default settings. Andrew's seeing really low filesizes
because ffmpegx have skimped a bit on the default bitrate in ffmpegx
ipod h264 mode, its only 290kbits/sec. Nice and small fles, but not
good enough quality for me, I just tried it. I stuck the video bitrate
back up to 600 and got much nicer quality image, but the filesizes we
are more used to seeing (no surprise really). Encoding was still fast,
though again it defaults to single-pass mode so that helps a bit.

Anyway using the same bitrate and settings there shouldnt be much
variation in filesizes between quicktime 7 encoded h264 and h264 made
with any other method. But encoding times and quality may vary
considerably, so its worth not writing h264 off based on experience of
quicktime7 alone. Same is true for playback to a certain extent, try
another player (eg VLC) if youve had poor h264 playback on a machine
in the past ith qt7 on windows or mac.

None of this really helps with the 'can the masses easily see h264 in
a browser' issue at the moment though, it just provides alternative
solutions for those who want to dabble in this stuff either as
creators or viewers.

 My experience is that, tho I think the H264 looks better at smaller
 sizes, it's slow as dirt to encode. At least with QT... haven't tried
 any other encoders.
 
 cheers,

  H264 will take over quickly, I think, because its that much better.
