Just make sure it's the newest windoze version possible. I do it with

[videoblogging] Advice on m4v MIME types

2005-12-09 Thread Eric Rice
Hi folks,

I'm almost back from the great white north (calgary at the moment) and I posted 
the first of a 
few dog sledding videos. Problem is, the link to download returns jibberish 
text in the 
browser (and feedburner doesn't currently treat .m4v as video files). 

Here's the stitch: In order to troubleshoot this, I created a MIME type for 
video/quicktime for 
m4v on my server, and it failed. I then created a MIME for video/mpeg, and 
included the 
standard mpeg types with m4v. Failed.

For the life of me, I can NOT get this to work. Any enclosure-aware software 
will see the post 
but not the media file.

Thoughts?

Re: [videoblogging] Advice on m4v MIME types

2005-12-09 Thread Joshua Kinberg
mime-type for m4v is actually video/mp4
m4v is not really a new anything.. apple just made up a new file
extension for the heck of it.

FeedBurner should recognize the video and make an enclosure as soon as
you give it a mime-type. If you are getting gibberish in your browser
it means that the mime-type its returning is text/plain.

The easiest way to add this mimetype is to upload a .htaccess file
with the following line:
--

AddType video/mp4 .m4v

--
Create a plain text file, copy and paste the line above. Save it as
htaccess.txt
Then upload this file to the same directory where you keep the m4v files.
Once its uploaded, change the name of the file to .htaccess (notice
the dot in front).
When you do this the file may disappear from view. This is okay,
usually files beginning with a dot are hidden.

Re: [videoblogging] Advice on m4v MIME types

I've banned the great white north. Cameras don't work well below 32  
degrees. It's bad enough here in michigan where it gets down to like  
ten degrees.

As for this MIME thing... I'm thinking it's the extentsion not the  
MIME type. Now feedburner IS turning it into an enclosure right?

What aabout changing it to MOV?  The extention is much more  
recognizeable, more likely too work and technically a m4v will only  
play in Quicktime anyway.

Personaly... I say fusck all that... mp4 is the way to go.  100% the

common standard than anything else. Also, probably a much much more

-35 C and F 
the temperatures become the same? I had all systems go, although there are

I tried Josh's suggestion and no luck. The video/mp4 fails, too. Feedburner

I've made it m4v for a specific reason, and while I most likely won't be using

that more 
people will use m4v as a publishing mechanism (like wmv or whatnot---it's not

My phone is not state of the art, so it doesn't play video, but here are  
my options.

  - I have a drag and drop interface to my phone's file system in Windows.  
Available via cable (COM port), IrDa or Bluetooth.
  - I can recieve an MMS message which is basically just an SMS with a  
pointer to a special URL with text, audio or video.

UMTS phones can play video, and there I would assume the easiest way to  
get video on it is just to point the web browser on the phone to the  
video. I don't know which formats are supported. I checked a couple of the  
cheaper UMTS phones just now. It seems like the Ericsson, Motorola and LG  
phones have  have MPEG-4 support (and some h.263). There were no cheap  
Nokia UMTS phones, but the expensive one had 3GP and Real Player (WTF?)  
support as well as in-phone video editing. These are phones being sold in  
Denmark. I don't know about options in the US. Also 'cheap' in this  
instances is relative to other UMTS phones - they are significantly more  
expensive than regular phones.

MPEG-4 seems to be the set standard on phones in Denmark (that probably  
means Europe as well). Of coure the Microsoft smart phones are different,  
but I don't see those around much.

Now I want a new phone. I don't know how you can connect these UMTS phones  
to your computer for example. All seem to have web browser and Java  
capabilities so in theory you could write your own feed reader (or just  
visit the freakin' blog). They claim download speeds of up to 384 kbs, but  
a lot probably go to network overhead.

Anyway, I imagine these phones connect to the computer in the same way my  
old phone does (Bluetooth or cable). I wouldn't buy a phone where I didn't  
have control over the file system. I know the US phone providers are  
probably screwing everyone over on that front.

[videoblogging] Re: Advice on m4v MIME types

2005-12-09 Thread Steve Watkins
No dont rename to .mov, its not a technically valid thing to do and
causes player errors. Have you tried renaming the m4v's to .mp4
instead? Its valid to do that as m4vs are just mp4's anyway.

[videoblogging] Re: New poll for videoblogging

2005-12-09 Thread Bill Streeter
I agree that it is a question that comes up again and again. But, I
think rather than a poll, a list of editing software options for
different platforms and their pros and cons might be more useful.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Advice on m4v MIME types

2005-12-09 Thread T.Whid
How are you setting the mime-type?

I had the same issue and setting the .htaccess file fixed it (both in
browsers and so that wordpress recognized it and created the enclosure
tags). I first set it as video/quicktime and now just changed it to
video/mp4 per Josh's suggestion.

Are you certain that you are allowed to use an .htaccess file on your server?

[videoblogging] Re: MP4 compatibility

2005-12-09 Thread Bill Streeter
My points were made from the point of view that you have to assume
that the vast number of viewers of any particular video content aren't
going to know, want or be able to trouble shoot why an MP4 isn't going
playing on their machine. It's easy for us geeks to over look this. My
mom, for instance (and you have to assume that there are a lot of
people like her on the internet) will never in a million years know to
make Quicktime the default player for MP4 movies. She wouldn't even
know what a MP4 is much less know that quicktime can play them. The
same goes for plugins. Many many users aren't going to go looking for
some plugin for WMP just so they can play MP4's. A select few will,
but that's not really helpful when you want pretty much anyone to be
able to see your stuff. The point is that there needs to be a solution
that just works with little or no effort on the part of the end user.
Flash video with all its flaws and limitations is the closest thing
that we have to this. MP4 ain't it yet.

 It was never designed with Windows Media in mind Bill.
 
 They don't necessarily open in Quicktime by default (which can be 
 confusing to users when the
 computer asks what program to open something with).
 
 Ever heard of making Quicktime the default player for MP4?  Not to 
 sound critical, but I'm told this usually works
 
 There isn't really an obvious way to do fast start. And if you want 
 to use 3ivx it's a
 multi step process.
 
 You can easily try making MP4 videos using H.264/x264 codecs.  To 
 learn more, go to http://x264.nl/
 
 You would think that MP4 for video should be the
 ubiquitous format for video that MP3 is for audio--but it's not. I
 finally just went back to Quicktime.
 
 Give it time Bill.  Give it time.  :)

2005-12-09 Thread Richard Bennett-Forrest
It is ironic that Apple and Microsoft are mainly to blame for holding 
back the video revolution, by not joining hands on a single 
compatable format that plays in QuickTime for Mac and Windows Media 
Player for Windows.

It just plain sucks, and if they're not careful the video version of 
mp3 will come along and teach them a lesson. Here's hoping.

[videoblogging] NY Times Hosts Vids all on One Page

2005-12-09 Thread Jan McLaughlin
A link from David Pogue's Circuits column:

  
http://video.on.nytimes.com/ifr_main.jsp;jsessionid=ai11I_FPY6T6? 
nsid=a2118ee73:1080e39f68b: 
4276st=1134141350167mp=FLVcpf=falsefr=120905_101550_2118ee73x1080e39 
f68bx4277rdm=131537.78814316625 

Not only has the NY Times gathered all its videoworks in one central  
page, but figured out how to deliver them more seamlessly across OS and  
browsers. The Times has heretofore only used Windows Media and Real as  
video formats. Now they've expanded to flash so everyone can have  
access to video.

Of interest.

 It is ironic that Apple and Microsoft are mainly to blame for holding

 It just plain sucks, and if they're not careful the video version of 
 mp3 will come along and teach them a lesson. Here's hoping.

Do you think either company would have chosen MP3 as the defacto format 
for podcasting? No way... they each would have pushed the format they 
are most invested in (AAC for Apple, WMV for Microsoft.) Remember that 
podcasting (despite the name) really happened because the individuals 
involved at the time saw the value of using open formats and protocols 
not controlled by any single company.

The big question is, can we do the same thing with videoblogging?

They won't be. But SMIL won't either. Quicktime SMIL is not really SMIL  
(you have to break XML wellformedness), so it most likely won't play  
outside Quicktime Player either. It works in iTunes because iTunes use the  
Quicktime Player for video playback.

[videoblogging] M4v vs. MOV

2005-12-09 Thread Hal Goodtree
OHMO, .mov is a better codec for vlogging than .m4v. The files are smaller, 
cleaner and more 
universally compatible than .m4v. Just got to set the parameters for the right 
size. Works fine 
with iTunes.

(BTW - I always tweak the settings to encode audio at 48k - it adds very little 
space to the 
stream and greatly improves program quality).

Anybody else in vlogland had this experience?

Apples and oranges. MOV isn't a codec, but a container format. m4v is just  
MPEG-4. You can create MPEG-4 in a MOV wrapper easily. If you want to

[videoblogging] Re: MP4 compatibility

2005-12-09 Thread Steve Watkins
he way I see it, mp3 support was an easy choice for podcasting to
make, because mp3 had already become the standard for audio downloads,
and portable hardware players. 

The same might happen with mp4 eventually, but it will take a while.

We can actually find something to thank Apple for, as they could have
made the ipod to only work with .mov's, rather than .mp4 as well. 

Im pretty optimistic that things will go well for mp4 on the encoding
 hardware mp4 creation side of things. The browser  hardware mp4
playback part of the picture is not so far advanced, time will tell.

Cool.

In your review of Audacity, though, would you (or anyone else with the

_can't_ do.

I've never used any audio-editing software that cost money (unless you
count the trivial apps that sometimes come as part of a video editing
program), and to me Audacity feels pretty powerful. I guess I'm a
newbie to the field of audio editing, and I'm finding it tough to
imagine what useful features other programs might provide that
audacity lacks.

For example, I was amazed to find that Audacity can play tracks I have
already recorded while I'm recording another one. I've never used any
software that could do that, so I didn't even think to look for it.

What else am I missing? What super features do others have that make
Audacity look dumb and clumsy in comparison?

Re: [videoblogging] Jakob Nielson On Talking-Head Videos

2005-12-09 Thread Richard Show



Richard BF,(boy this is confusing with all these Richards :)First of all, I really enjoy your videos. I just became aware of them lately although it seems you've been doing this (video blogging) a lot longer than me.
Second, I certainly think Jakob Nielson (whose name I'm constantly misspelling, sorry) has done a lot of good in calling attention to usability and, on-balance, is certainly good for our community. A big part of any criticism of him comes from the fact that he is so popular and successful (I should be so lucky :).
Third, I certainly appreciate what you're saying and you're probably right that was a touch unfair to Nielson -Fourth, you touch on a fundamental issue that I struggle with always when dealing with industry practitioners and their proprietary research. Since I moved from our Psychology department to Information Science and since my research has come to focus on usability and become more and more applied I have worked more an more with industry practitioners. They have been very good and helpful to me in understanding what my students will be doing in the real world, they come and talk in classes, and they have given me all sorts of advice and consulting for free and, most importantly, they've hired my students!
However, here's the issue. (And this is not opposing anything you've said.)On 12/7/05, Richard Bennett-Forrest 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:The only time you'll see the more extensive research in his public or
free newsletters or web site, is when the research is old, or he'sclaiming an opinion (as you say) which is actually based upon theresearch. In the latter case he won't quote the research, because hecharges for it, so it looks like he's just making it up.
In my world, the method, analyses, and results of research are open to everyone. There are now some free ed research journals on the web where people even provide all of the raw data for anyone to look at our re-analyze as they choose. In addition, there is peer review, where things are not published until they are judged to be appropriate by experts. I , will admit that I have some issues with peer review in that I think it often tends to encourage research that is esoteric to some academic group pushing it away from the real world, but I love and am very attached to the notion that all of the research is open to anyone who can go to a library and check out the journal. I'm very excited by the movement in some academic circle to publish all research, for free, on the web. I post most of my papers, with method/procedures etc on the web and will post them all if I ever get the time. So, of course the point is, I have no way of evaluating the research that Nielson bases his claims on - I don't know anything about what he actually did. I'm not sure how to get around this - it's a fundamental problem that comes up for us more and more when we have grad students who are working in industry and want to do theses or dissertations for research associated with their jobs (important, real world research) but they can't release findings, and especially can't release info about their method - though these things could ultimately help people to design systems that made us all happier in dealing with interfaces - pretty frustrating.
... and, well, ramble ramble ... got to stop somewhere ... thanks for your message, and it's pretty cool to know that it sounds like you've spent some time in the user design world, which will make your videos even cooler ... best regards ... the other Richard

[videoblogging] Re: DivX - Shameless Plug

2005-12-09 Thread Steve Watkins
Cheers :)

My impression of things is probably a bit wrong, Im probably
underestimating the number of DivX certified players etc that exist.
And yes when thinking of videoblogging, Im not thinking of the
billions of legacy files that consumers want to play, indeed Im
avoiding talking about that stuff at all because its 'grey' to say the
least. Still it is similar to how mp3 become the established standard
for audio. DivX doesnt dominate to quite the extent mp3 does though, I
see a lot of xvid stuff floating around, but maybe they are pretty
compatible. 

Regarding mp4 support from the likes of Apple and Sony, it will be
interesting to see what happens. Apple have actually been good about
this so far, they could have limited ipod support to .mov containers
only, if they wanted to keep tighter control of ipod video creation
tools. They havent, theyve allowed normal m4 to work. The fact that
only baseline h264 works is likely due to the choice of decoder chip,
rather than a deliberate imcompatibility with PSP h264. Sony on the
otherhand have either due to sloppyness or deliberate policy, messed
with the PSP mp4 container, but it still hasnt stopped people creating
3rd party PSP video encoders.

Did you say in the pst that DivX are working on playback in browsers?
Compared to Apple's stuff thats where you are lacking most, and also
lacking something like itunes and content deals. Im not so sure all
those billions of legacy divx avi's will mean all that much to
hardware manufacturers in the longterm. When people are buying more
video online, it wont be in avi format. Couple that with phones 
other devices creating mp4's of one kind of another, and next-gen DVD
using h264, and I am not so sure DivX compatibility will continue to
be such a selling point for DVD hardware players etc in the future.

 Steve,

 Not to butter you up or anything, but you are very insightful. I
 honestly appreciate these threads.
 
 There are published specs for avi and many other codecs and encoding
 applications create avi's. For the longterm CE manufacturers will
 support this format since there are billions of legacy files that the
 consumers want to play. Supporting our 'certified' profile gives them a
 competitive advantage, therefore they put it in the box.

 From my side of the playground, the apple mp4 support is more of a
 problem than a help. If anyone is going to make a vertically integrated
 closed system it will be apple. I would be surprised if apple and sony
 came together with a compatible format out of the kindness of their
 hearts. The slight differences are not an accident. Recent content deals
 on both sides drive an even deeper wedge between the psp and ipod. That
 is where we are trying to be part of the solution. We do have the
 leverage to make CE manufacturers implement a documented standard that
 is verifiably interoperable by someone outside of the production
 process. Also, due to required legacy support, even if we were evil,
 hand wringing, control freaks, we couldn't lock out the existing,
 non-DivX (r) encoding schemes.

  Yes, lots of useful uses of AJAX in MeasureMap. For example, you get
 a neat

 going.
  I like the clean UI too. So far, thumbs up!

 add some

[videoblogging] Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread escorial1967
Ok, so I am not an expert on technologies and I may sound like a moron
when posting this question, but anyway.

I've been reading about the dilema with delivering video content for
all platforms (Apple vs. Microsoft) and saw some mentioning of Flash
as a technology that being so worldwide used could be the one of the
answer to the problem.

I am a web designer and I've been working with Flash since versiion
2.0. The version I am using now is MX 2004 and I have done some video
embeding in my movies to test how they would work. I have imported mov
into flash and done some design work to export it again as a QT mov.
(see example here:
http://blip.tv/uploadedFiles/Escorial-SquaredMedia118.mov or here:
http://ia300843.eu.archive.org/2/items/Shapes_1/shapes.mov )I kind of
liked it and found it not too difficult but never put too much
attention on it... until now that I am so into vlog.

I did some testing embedding a mov into an fla, streaming and linked
outside but didn't go farther than that.

Anybody has some info about this? Is it flash the answer?

Thanks guys.

RE: [videoblogging] Re: DivX - Shameless Plug

2005-12-09 Thread Jim Vinson










We actually worked tightly with xvid
specifically so that xvid stream would work in all DivX decoders also. Xvid
obviously cant license to CE manufacturers because of mpeg-la niceties
(mpeg-la is entitled to fees for just compiling the code). Competeing
development towards commons goals with xvid has helped us both. We are forced
to keep strong development and they are insured of hardware support. (If you
look in the code you will see they include DivX certified profiles inside xvid).
So for general purposes, there really isnt a functional distinction between
xvid and divx.



There is a good chance the browser side
will come out in a few weeks (I am guessing right after everyone gets back from
new years).



Another arena is the online distribution.
That is still very early in the game. Who is to say that there wont be a
lot of paid content in avi? In fact, in italt, there is already a good market
of DivX discs sold at retail establishments of current Hollywood
releases. In brazil,
they are included with new DVD players (sometimes three feature films per
disc). And these arent obscure titles. These are new release top tier
movies. I know that itunes has sold millions of music videos, but on a sheer
number of minutes scale, they are still tens if not hundreds of billions of
minutes behind existing (grey or not) avi content.



We have already announced lower level
content deals (Image Entertainment, very long tail), but dont be
surprised if you see some DivX online stores in the next year.



Im certainly not saying that we are
trailblazers leading the pack, but dont write us off. And please, keep
up the dialog. One truly unique position you have with DivX is that we are here
and listening.

Cheers :)

My impression of things is probably a bit wrong,
Im probably
underestimating the number of DivX certified
players etc that exist.
And yes when thinking of videoblogging, Im not
thinking of the
billions of legacy files that consumers want to
play, indeed Im
avoiding talking about that stuff at all because
its 'grey' to say the
least. Still it is similar to how mp3 become the
established standard
for audio. DivX doesnt dominate to quite the
extent mp3 does though, I
see a lot of xvid stuff floating around, but maybe
they are pretty
compatible. 

Regarding mp4 support from the likes of Apple and
Sony, it will be
interesting to see what happens. Apple have
actually been good about
this so far, they could have limited ipod support
to .mov containers
only, if they wanted to keep tighter control of
ipod video creation
tools. They havent, theyve allowed normal m4 to
work. The fact that
only baseline h264 works is likely due to the
choice of decoder chip,
rather than a deliberate imcompatibility with PSP
h264. Sony on the
otherhand have either due to sloppyness or
deliberate policy, messed
with the PSP mp4 container, but it still hasnt
stopped people creating
3rd party PSP video encoders.

Did you say in the pst that DivX are working on
playback in browsers?
Compared to Apple's stuff thats where you are
lacking most, and also
lacking something like itunes and content deals.
Im not so sure all
those billions of legacy divx avi's will mean all
that much to
hardware manufacturers in the longterm. When
people are buying more
video online, it wont be in avi format. Couple
that with phones 
other devices creating mp4's of one kind of
another, and next-gen DVD
using h264, and I am not so sure DivX
compatibility will continue to
be such a selling point for DVD hardware players
etc in the future.

 There are published specs for avi and many
other codecs and encoding

CE manufacturers will
 support this format since there are billions
of legacy files that the
 consumers want to play. Supporting our
'certified' profile gives them a
 competitive advantage, therefore they put it
in the box.

 From my side of the playground, the apple mp4
support is more of a
 problem than a help. If anyone is going to
make a vertically integrated
 closed system it will be apple. I would be
surprised if apple and sony
 came together with a compatible format out of
the kindness of their

accident. Recent content deals
 on both sides drive an even deeper wedge between
the psp and ipod. That
 is where we are trying to be part of the

Re: [videoblogging] Re: mena trott

2005-12-09 Thread Richard Show



I suppose this, civility of online discourse, is something I feel pretty strongly about (to whatever extent I ever feel strongly about anything)I can tolerate dumb people, fat people, ugly people, geeky people, dirty people, people with different views, kids that climb on rocks; I like to think I am tolerant of most all sorts of things, but I've never been tolerant of rude people - I have a lot of trouble tolerating assholes and, especially, when it's online in an environment when they are not talking to someone face to face - it's too easy
I have this sort of core belief (to whatever extent I have any core beliefs) that the way we treat each other is not only important, it's everything. If someone is an asshole to other people, my feeling, is what else matters. 
Having said that, ironically, I also certainly agree, it's important to learn to ignore rudness to not retaliate in kind ... I read flames in email and long debates where people get personal and rude, and, the best thing to do is to not respond at all - and I don't - though I will admit a disturbing tendency to want to read the long occasional bloddy flaming personal attach threads ... 
One thing I like about this list, actually, now that I think about it, I like this about the vast majority of people I meet, is that people do make an effort to have civil discourse even when they disagree ... I appreciate that - it's just that the assholes tend to draw the attention, and maybe that sort of explains the behavior
... what am I talking about ... I don't know ... obviously I have some deep underlying disturbing issues, and, maybe had too much coffee and maybe I'm taking the day off from work and I'm finally catching up on yahoo emails and feeling driven to comment and ... I can't stop  maybe I'm the real asshole ... oh my God ... exercise my asshold demons!  ah!

I wonder if part of the reason we're mostly fairly polite to each other in here is that we do see each other, in our recorded videos and during live video conferences. I think it's much harder to be an asshole to someone whose face you can actually bring to mind, even if you're not face-to-face with them at the moment.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread Joshua Kinberg
for newer flash videos that use the new flash video codec, the user
must have flash 8 installed.

I am one who does not think that Flash is the answer for individual
videobloggers. Making flash video, embedding it inside a SWF
controller, and then posting it on a blog is not easy for a casual
user who has no experience.

I do think its a great solution for service providers who develop
hosted applications (like audioblog). However, I think its important
for those service providers to also encode other more portable formats
for syndication... that is if social media is one of their goals as a
service provider.

But back to the casual user... this is the best solution I've seen
yet for an individual videoblogger who wants to use Flash video, but
doesn't want to rely on a hosted service like audioblog, or videoegg,
or another like that:

I think you have a good point Josh, 
I know flash, it is my profession but I consider myself an average user and 
average vlogger 
who would not want to go through too many hours of  painfull setting up my 
movies in 
flash. And I am thinking of a solution for the average user.

Let's be hones most of us out there are average users, we get scared when we 
hear simple 
things like mp4 and mov and we don't know the differences if any... and we 
really don't 
want to know. We just want to have an easy way to deliver our videos and make 
sure they 
will be able to be watched by the mayority of people.

I am trying to play devil's advocate here, so could you tell me the problem

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread Michael Sullivan
The approach vsocial.com takes is most logical (as a video hosting service).
They transcode uploaded video to flv and the rss feeds hold more
portable mp4 formats (and others?).  flv works very well as an
embedded video on the web and other formats are better suited for
downloading and can be used for remixes.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread Deirdre Straughan



How easy it is depends on the tools you're using. I'm not much of a website coder, but I post my videos to a website rather than a blog, and I was already using DreamWeaver to manage the site, which naturally handles Flash quite well. Here are the steps:
1. I edit my videos in Roxio VideoWave (sometimes Windows Movie Maker) and save as raw AVI again (the same format they came out of the DV video camera).2. Drag and drop onto Sorenson Squeeze and compress as SWF. Sorenson allows me to play with different settings, 
e.g. I set higher audio compression when the audio is important, lower video compression if there's not much action, etc.3. Move the resulting SWF file into a videos directory for my website.4. In DreamWeaver, drag the SWF file onto the page where I want it to appear. Set Autoplay on and Loop off (these are standard settings for Flash video in DreamWeaver). 
5. Upload the page and the video to my web server.Voila, embedded Flash video on my web page.-- best regards,Deirdré Straughan

You could use a free or cheap app to transcode your video into flv and
utilize the free flash video player on your server.
The very popular free flv player can be found here:
http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=Flash_Video_Player

if you are on windows, i suggest:
http://rivavx.com/index.php?encoderL=3

if you have quicktime pro, you should also provide formats that QT can
export to such as mp4 and 3gp.

[videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread escorial1967
I have Flash MX 2004, so can I import a movie into flash and export it as flv?
BUt then, I am using blogger so there is no way I can upload this flv to blip. 
tv or ourmedia 
and then make a posting into my blog as I do with a normal mov?

Am I been too thick?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread Joshua Kinberg
The problem with Flash and syndication is that most Flash developers
architect their stuff so that its meant to be played in a web browser
loaded from a specific location, not downloaded to your local machine
and played from your hard drive.

Flash files are typically filled with relative linked dependencies,
whether loading other SWFs, actionscripts, FLV files, or what have
you... this is a trick to keep file sizes small from the standpoint of
a Flash developer, unfortunately it has the side effect of locking
content to one place. In fact, Flash video is not playable by Flash
plugin directly unless its loaded separately into a SWF controller. So
just by virtue of using Flash video, you are potentially breaking
syndication.

So, instead of distributing SWFs via RSS that depend on external links
that won't function for offline usage, you could instead distribute
raw FLV files via RSS... but they are not able to play unless loaded
inside a SWF controller. We actually support this in FireAnt on the
Mac by using a SWF controller that dynamically loads FLV files from
the local hard drive, though not many people distribute FLV via RSS,
probably because all of this is kind of a technical pain in the ass.
We intend to support this soon in the Windows version of FireAnt as
well in anticipation of seeing more FLV content out there, but so far
that hasn't really been the case for videoblogs.

I am not certain if you can export to flv from MX2004.
But if not, try something that can, such as the riva encoder i pointed you too.
I know there are other free flv trancoders too... google around if need be.

If you dont have your own web server to hos the flv player, you could
use mine until you have a better solution.
Use this link and just replace the file url with your own flv url.

[videoblogging] streaming movie staggers with DSL

2005-12-09 Thread thebossa
Hi,

I made this at the community media center, then brought it into iMovie
and compressed out to MP4, following the freevlog iMovie tutorial. It
plays fine on my machine, but in the new google video streaming
location where it's hosted, it staggers when viewing online:

http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=%22Portland+People+and+Places+Interview+with+Charles+Lewis+of+Ethos%2C+INC.%22+playable:true

I wonder if there are frame rates or compression settings that I can
change to make it flow better? Or if it's the google server. I don't
know where else to host the video for streaming. The times go past 30
minutes for some of the music shows we're doing.

You are right Eric.

If I had some coffee beforehand, I would have made sure I mentioned that, 
Corporate or 
not, I do enjoy a good handjob.

I definitely don't shirk away from the intersection of Art and Commerce.  
Often, that is 
some of the most entertaining moments in the process of creation. (not 
entertaining while 
going on, but usually after the fact.  Lots of learning in those moments.)

I like field trips to offices and free lunch-- but only after coffee.  Of which 
now I've had a 
very large cup to the point that I make handjob jokes on large lists.

Michael,
I am checking vsocial and it looks quite promissing. Just a couple of questions 
I could not 
find answers in their site and maybe you know.

Do they copyright the videos under Creative Commons?
It seems I can cross-post into my vlog at blogger right?

I don't understand very well the proces or better, what kind of file I have to 
upload to 
make it flash. Do I have to upload a flv? instead of an mpg4 or mov?

 for newer flash videos that use the new flash video codec, the user

 I am one who does not think that Flash is the answer for individual
 videobloggers. Making flash video, embedding it inside a SWF
 controller, and then posting it on a blog is not easy for a casual
 user who has no experience.

 I do think its a great solution for service providers who develop
 hosted applications (like audioblog). However, I think its important
 for those service providers to also encode other more portable formats
 for syndication... that is if social media is one of their goals as a
 service provider.

 But back to the casual user... this is the best solution I've seen
 yet for an individual videoblogger who wants to use Flash video, but
 doesn't want to rely on a hosted service like audioblog, or videoegg,
 or another like that:

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread John Dowdell
Background info below:


 What plug in version of flash does the user need?
 7 or 8?

Macromedia Flash Player 6 and above include the Sorenson Sparc video 
codec, and Macromedia Flash Player 8 also includes the On2 VP6 video codec.

(Audio codecs include MP3, Nelly-Moser for speech, one or two others... 
audio decompression has been pretty stable the last few versions.)

Pretty much anyone on the web has FP6 or above... FP8 has seen massive, 
massive installaiton rates, already above Firefox or Windows XP SP2, 
although there hasn't been time for consumer audits of SWF8 viewability yet.



  People do complain that they'd like a
  scrubber/progress bar and other video controls.

The webs search term flv skins pulls up a bunch of such controls (no 
coding necessary)... the term flv player pulls up an overlapping set 
of sites with such resources.


  what process do you use to create your videos? Could you give
  me some inside on how can I start?

Here's a Flash Video Learning Guide and many, many more resources:
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flash/video.html


   Making flash video, embedding it inside a SWF
  controller, and then posting it on a blog is not easy for a casual
  user who has no experience.

Not easy to learn a general authoring tool, true, but lots and lots of 
newbies post web video these days with ease:
http://www.videoegg.com/


For the title's Is Flash the answer?, I'm actually not real sure of 
the question, sorry, hard for me to usefully reply on that one yet ;-)

so then, what you mean to wsay is, each video... when watched on the tivo, is not a videoblog post.  fine, we can all live with that for awhile... until tivo get bloggy with it.  akimbo might already?  

just to be clear though, lets not say that rboom is no longer a videoblog... 
we'll agree that the daily video 'if' viewed on the tivo is not a vlog post... and thats about it =)

Yes, it does. The video isn't the blog entry. Inbound links, outbound
link, comments and so on all make up the blog entry. The blog entry is a 
network object. What you get on the Tivo is just the video. Same thing if
you print out a blog entry and put it in a newspaper. You wouldn't have a
blog entry anymore, you'd have an opinion article (or an article or 
whatever).

> what it really is is a VODCAST, yo!

Yes, not the same thing as a videoblog. :o)

[videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?

2005-12-09 Thread escorial1967
jd, you rock man
I am checking it right now. So much info

 Background info below:
 
 
  What plug in version of flash does the user need?
  7 or 8?
 
 Macromedia Flash Player 6 and above include the Sorenson Sparc video 
 codec, and Macromedia Flash Player 8 also includes the On2 VP6 video codec.
 
 (Audio codecs include MP3, Nelly-Moser for speech, one or two others... 
 audio decompression has been pretty stable the last few versions.)
 
 Pretty much anyone on the web has FP6 or above... FP8 has seen massive, 
 massive installaiton rates, already above Firefox or Windows XP SP2, 
 although there hasn't been time for consumer audits of SWF8 viewability yet.
 
 
 
   People do complain that they'd like a
   scrubber/progress bar and other video controls.
 
 The webs search term flv skins pulls up a bunch of such controls (no 
 coding necessary)... the term flv player pulls up an overlapping set 
 of sites with such resources.
 
 
   what process do you use to create your videos? Could you give
   me some inside on how can I start?
 
 Here's a Flash Video Learning Guide and many, many more resources:
 http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/flash/video.html
 
 
Making flash video, embedding it inside a SWF
   controller, and then posting it on a blog is not easy for a casual
   user who has no experience.
 
 Not easy to learn a general authoring tool, true, but lots and lots of 
 newbies post web video these days with ease:

 For the title's Is Flash the answer?, I'm actually not real sure of 
 the question, sorry, hard for me to usefully reply on that one yet ;-)
