[videoblogging] Advice on m4v MIME types
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
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. -Josh On 12/9/05, Eric Rice [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 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.

I'm thinking at the very least you can sends someone an SMS with a link to a simple little phone compatible page with a list of videos like rboom... But I'm always looking for better mechanisms. 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. - Andreas -- URL:http://www.solitude.dk/ Commentary on media, communication, culture and technology. Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: MP4 compatibility
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.

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.

[videoblogging] Re: MP4 compatibility
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.

No way... they each would have pushed the format they are most invested in (AAC for Apple, WMV for Microsoft.)

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

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 -- Richard http://www.richardshow.com SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO!

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.

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.

[videoblogging] Is Flash the answer?
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. Escorial Yahoo!

RE: [videoblogging] Re: DivX - Shameless Plug
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.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: mena trott
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 ...

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?
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: http://roel.meurders.nl/wordpress-plugins/wp-flv-video-player-plugin/ (requires Wordpress) -Josh On 12/9/05, escorial1967 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What plug in version of flash does the user need? 7 or 8?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?
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?
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 www.beginningwithi.com (personal)www.tvblob.com (work) SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO!

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?
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. -Josh On 12/9/05, escorial1967 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 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.

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.

[videoblogging] Re: Is Flash the answer?
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? --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Michael Sullivan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I believe so, yes... i dont use audioblog but i think they provide other formats for syndication.

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.

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.

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.

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.
