I then drag the file onto QuickTime Pro (which cost me all of 30 bucks) and say Export to iPod.

[videoblogging] Re: the lamest format (it's not Flash video)
Well Im no fan of windows media, but Im also more than a little skeptical about hopes that Apples market share is going to go large enough soon enough to make your conclusions totally valid. Is all this 'market share' stuff just based on volumes of computers sold in any particular quarter? If so then this doesnt tell us what percentage of active computers on the net are Macs, which is more important. If I wasnt into VJing then I could go for years without meeting anybody in the UK with a Mac. Nobody at work even considers Apple when getting a new computer. We've only had a Apple retail store or 2 here in the UK for a few years. Apple are only just opening their first store in continental Europe. I believe that Macs already have a disproportionately large number of column inches dedicated towards them, and Apple get a much easier ride with the press, not least because quite a lot of journalists have Macs. Personally I would want to consider cross-platform compatibility when developing a site/service, but I still expect Windows-based machines to dominate for years to come. For Apples share to change significantly in the short-medium term, they need to get cheaper. I bought 2 Macs last year but really they reprensent very very poor value compared to the equivalent PC. The new Mac Intel chips will help this a bit, but the price of PC stuff just keep tumbling so I dunno, hard to tell what will happen.

Re: [videoblogging] the lamest format (it's not Flash video)
i dont disagree. but i wouldnt say that it is much easier to create wmv. it's somewhat easier to some people. not any easier to others. and if the final output is not going to provide optimum 'experience' on the web for those on all platforms, then that has to be weighed into the decision to use wmv. like i always say, it depends on the people and neither statements from both ends of the spectrum can be used as a sweeping truth. DRM sure. has little to do with the open vlog culture but yeah it will be a leader in this area for some time. As the Mac continues to gain market share in 2006, I predict that Windows Media will be dropped by many, if not most, of the serious web video sites using it today.define Serious web video sites because if you are referring to big media or most commercial ventures, whether or not they use DRM, then this wont play out anytime soon. if you are talking about serious independent content creators like vloggers then i'd say that this latest decision from MS could very well hinder usage of the format... but nothing will crumble. personally, i'd use and recommend DivX over wmv! sullOn 1/20/06, Joshua Kinberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Not so fast there...

Re: [videoblogging] Re: using josh's pop up thing.
yeah, Andreas has the right approach herei also take a similar approach with same end result on vlogdir.com.example:http://vlogdir.com/permalink/594 when chris added the entry, he filled out a form to include an image and a video. the end result works as if the image were a quicktime poster movie, but its not.some of andreas' scripts caveats apply here, except the image can be any size (technically, but not setup that way on vlogdir) and it does work on Internet Explorer fine. It also checks/detects for Quicktime plugin and displays message with link to download quicktime if user does not have it. could be made into a plugin of course. and yeah josh is correct about the popup blockers it has no effect if a user initiates the popup from clicking a link.also, though I am a fan of embedding video on pages (this includes popup window), i think it is poor practice to do so in any way that causes the video to download automatically on a page, even the media permalink page. Especially in a blog page where people can submit comments... because often times after this is submitted the page reloads and the video starts to download again wasting bandwidth. Yes, a little so-called Ajax scripting for the comments form would help here to but thats besides the point. even sites like blip.tv work like this. either make the comments in a popup window like rocketboom (ever wonder why they do this? now you know) or make the video in a popup or use _javascript_ as mentioned here and by andreas, or use a combination of an iframe and show/hide div layer to mimic the function of the popup window but embedded on page. there are also some newer more interesting techniques i've been experimenting with but i wont get into that techbabble here.sullOn 1/20/06, Andreas Haugstrup [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Fri, 20 Jan 2006 11:02:55 +0100, Eddie Codel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Awesome script Josh.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: legal rights of copyrighted material
On Jan 19, 2006, at 6:53 PM, Andreas Haugstrup wrote: that's why I keep recommending college text books on mass media law and not just a website with bullet points about Fair Use. Just to be clear -- the website I recommended at: is not just a website with bullet points... in fact I would regard it as more authoritative than any book on Fair Use. Usually I would never say such a thing -- websites are wrong and flaky more often than books -- but this isn't just any website let me give some background about who published the info on that site. In the U.S., understanding Fair Use had become increasingly confusing to independent media makers. With our desire and ability to quote other media rising in this digital era, and with the increasing power of media corporations who buy copyrights from other people corporations and have their lawyers extend the length of time of those copyrights through longer than ever seen before, and with the way the _all_ of the laws are being rewritten in the U.S. to favor corporate rights over human rights... more and more documentary filmmakers were giving up on ever using Fair Use. It was especially hard for documentary feature filmmakers who would do research (like you are advocating), learn about copyright law in-depth, make decisions about what they could use under fair use and without paying huge fees... and then these filmmakers would take their films to PBS / ITVS / POV (all public funding / distribution programs in the U.S.) and these major distributors would say no -- we can't show this, you have to pay royalties on all this. Sometimes the broadcast royalties that were being demanded cost much more than the original film budget -- hundreds of thousands of dollars. And film projects would get stopped cold. Basically fair use existed in the U.S., but independent filmmakers couldn't use it because the broadcasters were so conservative in their interpretation of what could be done. And foundations and funding sources were getting chewed up paying royalties to by rights to footage / music / etc that could have be used without paying by declaring fair use. So, the Rockefeller Foundation and the MacArthur Foundation (who fund a lot of the projects that I'm talking about) got together and funded a huge multi-year study and conversation about what's going on. American University coordinated the whole project, and they consulted with a gazillion lawyers and fair use experts and filmmaker associations and together wrote up a statement. This statement that's been produced is not one person's idea about fair use, it is now the definitive guide and statement of intention of an entire industry about how all of these people will now understand, interpret and use the concept of Fair Use. They are not legislatures or judges, so they didn't actually re-write the law, but I would consider this the next best thing. Basically it's a huge alliance of all of the biggest players in the U.S. saying, look, it's been confusing, we all ran away from the issue because we didn't want to get in trouble, but that wasn't working for us, so this is what we are going to do now. If anyone exercises fair use under these guidelines, and then gets sued, they have the entire pack of organizations behind them defending what they did. Judges are into professional guidelines and statements like these, and will listen. Who's in this alliance? The statement was co-written by: Association of Independent Video and Filmmakers Independent Feature Project International Documentary Association National Alliance for Media Arts and Culture Women in Film and Video (Washington, D.C., chapter) and endorsed by: Arts Engine Bay Area Video Coalition Doculink Full Frame Festival Independent Television Service P.O.V./American Documentary University Film and Video Association Video Association of Dallas Women Make Movies So it's a REALLY big deal. Now it covers only Fair Use, in the U.S., and not all of the issues that have come up in this email discussion. And I've argued for the use of copyrighted material that goes beyond fair use. This document is more careful, and names specific instances when a media maker should feel very justified to use copyrighted material. There are, of course, many non-fair-use instances that are illegal, many others that are not, and others that are still vague. And of course, people are free to make choices that might be considered illegal, or are in the grey area, and wait to see what happens... Negativeland URL: http://www.negativland.com/ > URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negativland > is a great example of a group of artists who pushes the boundaries of what's considered legal, to test those boundaries and to create art that couldn't be created by towing the line. It's that spirit that created Creative Commons. To me, I don't want to assume that videoblogging falls under the law in exactly the same way that television broadcasting does. But that of, course is my opinion --

Re: [videoblogging] Re: sony hdr-fx1
How come so few people are trying out 640x480? It seems like most people are shrinking to 320x240, and then they're are people wanted to play with larger formats -- like 960x540 or1280x720. I'm guessing it's because people have these HDV cameras and want to use all those pixels... but it seems like 640x480 would be a great thing to experiment with. Like -- which is better, super high quality 320x480 so that it looks decent when blown up to 640x480 in FireANT, or a 640x480 native file of the same mb file size (so much lower quality). I'm watching more and more videos at 640x480, but (thanks to the green button) I can now see what their original formats are, and I see they are mostly some where around 320x240. Some look good blown up, some look like crap I wish I had more time to play with all this... (but I don't). It's definitely a thing to explore -- how to get a better looking, bigger image, staying within reasonable download times. jen Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: sony hdr-fx1
I have the Sony HC1, and for my Quicktime feed I'm using 400 x 225. Weird I know, but looks pretty good and should handle being blow up bigger. Sorenson Squeeze has a deinterlace, which isn't really necessary if you're shrinking your video. I'm not sure how much processing time it adds but I'd like to experiment with a larger format feed. Another potential issue is the additional bandwidth of large videos. I prefer to jusst FTP my videos to one of my servers since it takes more time to use Blip.tv (for example), but I have to watch my bandwidth limits. -chuck http://mnstories.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Michael Verdi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think the biggest reason more people aren't doing 640 X 480 is the de-interlacing problem.

[videoblogging] DV to iPod (320x240) dilemna
Question: Had anyone had any luck replicating the sharpness, and file size of the export to iPod 320x240 function, but by doing it manually? I have found the quality, and file size of export to iPod (320x240) to be very appealing, with one exception, the stretch factor. Why does Apple not take into consideration the rectangular pixels of the 720x480 format, and make them square to a true 320x240 size, not 320x213? Because every time I have tried a manual compression from DV to 320x240, the image is just not as sharp, and the file sizes are larger than the standard export to iPod 320-x240. And I have tried a variety of compressions. I have tried making a self-contained 720x480 DV NTSC movie into a 640x480 DV NTSC movie. Then, I have done a variety of manual compressions, m4v, mp4, mov, with Video, or Sorenson 3, or MPEG$ settings. (The h.264 is definitely the best in quality and size). But again, none of the manual compression schemes come up to the quality of the automatic export to iPod (320x240) I have also tried going directly to 320 x 240 DV NTSC from 720x480, and worked a variety of manual compressions, but to no avail. I am curious to know if others have had similar experiences. Chris Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: the lamest format (it's not Flash video)
I have a few replies to various things posted on this thread. 1) Apple's market share. Steve Watkins says he doesn't see many Macs in the UK. Yes, I agree, it varies by geography. In the San Francisco Bay Area, where I am, Macs have far greater than 10% share, maybe as high as 20% or more, and it's been growing noticably for the last year. No, Apple is not a big enough employer to affect those numbers. Most technology trends seem to start here, so I'd say that the Bay Area is usually a leading indicator for technology trends. 2) Flip4Mac makes Windows Media viable on Macs. C'mon, folks! True, Quicktime fans have been pushing Windows folks to download Quicktime from the Apple site, but there's a *huge* difference in the name recognition of Apple and the name recognition of Flip4Mac. People fail to download free apps for two primary reasons: 1) it's a pain, and 2) they don't trust the company behind the download. Until some huge company (like Microsoft) buys Flip4Mac, it won't be a big factor. 3) Windows Media is easy to output, according to Josh Kinberg. A very large percentage of web video (half?) is created on Macs with Final Cut Pro and iMovie, and on Macs creating a Windows Media file is not very easy. Ease of output is one of the achilles heels of Flash Media (easily the best cross platform solution from a viewing point of view), but the recent Adobe acquisition should change that issue radically. They own Premiere, of course, but also, they have the muscle and the experience w/ PDF to cut deals w/ lots of other software vendors. 4) Sites changing from Windows Media. Others don't believe my prediction. I know of at least two major sites that will soon make the change from Windows Media to Flash Video in the near future. One is very popular with videobloggers, and the other is a huge consumer site. Stay tuned this year, folks... --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Steve Watkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well Im no fan of windows media, but Im also more than a little skeptical about hopes that Apples market share is going to go large enough soon enough to make your conclusions totally valid. Is all this 'market share' stuff just based on volumes of computers sold in any particular quarter? If so then this doesnt tell us what percentage of active computers on the net are Macs, which is more important. If I wasnt into VJing then I could go for years without meeting anybody in the UK with a Mac. Nobody at work even considers Apple when getting a new computer. We've only had a Apple retail store or 2 here in the UK for a few years. Apple are only just opening their first store in continental Europe. I believe that Macs already have a disproportionately large number of column inches dedicated towards them, and Apple get a much easier ride with the press, not least because quite a lot of journalists have Macs. Personally I would want to consider cross-platform compatibility when developing a site/service, but I still expect Windows-based machines to dominate for years to come. For Apples share to change significantly in the short-medium term, they need to get cheaper. I bought 2 Macs last year but really they reprensent very very poor value compared to the equivalent PC. The new Mac Intel chips will help this a bit, but the price of PC stuff just keep tumbling so I dunno, hard to tell what will happen. Steve of Elbows --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Mike Lanza [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Meanwhile, Macs recently passed 5% market share for PCs. They almost doubled market share right before switching microprocessor platforms, a time when nearly everyone expected their share to dip. Thus, I'd say it's clear that Mac is headed for upper single digits, if not double-digits. My conclusion is that any site based on this lame format is, well, lame for using it. As the Mac continues to gain market share in 2006, I predict that Windows Media will be dropped by many, if not most, of the serious web video sites using it today. Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: DV to iPod (320x240) dilemna
Its a sad joke that Apple still havent fixed this ( I was hoping QT7.0.4 fixed it but just tried and no, still doesnt take account of rectangular pixels). When this problem was first discussed here, I got it as wrong as Apple (mind mess over rectangualr pixels), but its inexcusable that they havent sorted it out yet, all these years I heard how Apple were better for video and then they make a mistake like this. Regarding why your workarounds havent worked: When you tried going to 640x480 first, you then tried exporting the 640x480 version using the 'export to ipod (320x240)'? And this fixed the 320x213 issue but the video quality wasnt as good? Strange, as I wouldnt have expected pre-reducing to 640x480 to affect the quality of the final m4v file, unles the 640x480 resizing hasnt been done properly (eg interlacing issues) or Apple ahve something strange going on with the ipod export resize filters. As far as what the nearest manual settings are for achieving the same as apples ipod export option, its possible apple have done some special tweaks to that mode, but its possible to get nearly the same manually: Export to mpeg4 Video type: H264 bitrate: about 700kbits/sec frame rate same as source Key frame: dunno, experiment press 'video options' button: Untick Main, tick Baseline Choose Best quality or Faster Encode (see below)* Audio: AAC-LC (Music) 128 kbps rest of audio settings probably dont matter much *Apple made some ipod export changes with qt7.0.4 compared to 7.0.3. Based on encoding times, I believe QT7.0.3 ipod export used multi-pass mode (so better quality) but Apple were getting stick for how slow the export was, so in QT7.0.4 theyve changed it to Single-Pass to stop encoding times being too depressing. Take your pick. Hoe that helps a little, if you are on a Mac then consider trying alternative encoders like iSquint to see if you prefer the quality, if you are on Windows there are other options too.

[videoblogging] Re: Convert .ASF to .MOV on a Mac?
OK I guess its possible there is more than one sort of ask and the type you are trying is less compatible. VLC does have a video conversion function built in that you could try, Ive been trying but its a bit buggy, the key is working out what export format it will handle properly. In VLC, File-Open File Select asf file Tick 'Advanced Output' box Press Settings Button Choose destination file container format using the 'encapsulation method' dropdown. Leave output option set to file and Browse to give it a destination name for the converted output file Mess around with the video and audio transcode options, dunno what combination will work best/at all. Press OK Press Ok again and instead of playing the file, VLC will convert it. Like I said, I didnt have much luck creating a file using that method, but I dont know why yet. Maybe the 'treat as a pipe rather than as a file' option will make a difference, I dunno. If all else fails and the asf file your using is weird you could send it to me if you want me to investigate further.

[videoblogging] Re: the lamest format (it's not Flash video)
Has anyone here been playing w/ the new Flash Video Encoder included w/ Flash 8 Pro? The On2 VPC codec produces a pretty nice file. I haven't had time to test compression. This output requires the flash 8 plugin to playback. I have been having some problems with the new flvplayback component, but all-in-all...the new stuff is pretty nice. You can included cuepoints before compression, then call those points with the actionscript. They also included Alpha layers. Again..I have only been playing with it and haven't published anything. Here's an example from my vlog: http://www.brandbutter.com/vlog/archives/strategy/index.html --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Steve Watkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well Im no fan of windows media, but Im also more than a little skeptical about hopes that Apples market share is going to go large enough soon enough to make your conclusions totally valid. Is all this 'market share' stuff just based on volumes of computers sold in any particular quarter? If so then this doesnt tell us what percentage of active computers on the net are Macs, which is more important. If I wasnt into VJing then I could go for years without meeting anybody in the UK with a Mac. Nobody at work even considers Apple when getting a new computer. We've only had a Apple retail store or 2 here in the UK for a few years. Apple are only just opening their first store in continental Europe. I believe that Macs already have a disproportionately large number of column inches dedicated towards them, and Apple get a much easier ride with the press, not least because quite a lot of journalists have Macs. Personally I would want to consider cross-platform compatibility when developing a site/service, but I still expect Windows-based machines to dominate for years to come. For Apples share to change significantly in the short-medium term, they need to get cheaper. I bought 2 Macs last year but really they reprensent very very poor value compared to the equivalent PC. The new Mac Intel chips will help this a bit, but the price of PC stuff just keep tumbling so I dunno, hard to tell what will happen. Steve of Elbows --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Mike Lanza [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Meanwhile, Macs recently passed 5% market share for PCs. They almost doubled market share right before switching microprocessor platforms, a time when nearly everyone expected their share to dip. Thus, I'd say it's clear that Mac is headed for upper single digits, if not double-digits. My conclusion is that any site based on this lame format is, well, lame for using it. As the Mac continues to gain market share in 2006, I predict that Windows Media will be dropped by many, if not most, of the serious web video sites using it today. Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: the lamest format (it's not Flash video)
Have you checked out all the licensing stuff on DivXs site? Thats the biggest part of the puzzle not yet completed yet as far as DivX goes. Too many strings attached at the moment, video distributors appear to be treated differently to creators, and only being granted a license to share divx stuff for 1 year is not well suited to videoblogging. Any progress on this stuff Jim? Should we be assuming that videobloggers should be doing the DivX Indy thing for now, or that you have something more flexible in the works? I congratulate DivX on the strong progress in recent months towards fixing all the technical issues, such as Mac compatibility, browser plugin (great work!) and progressive download. Once the browser plugin is out of beta, things should really start to take off. But if this happens without changes in your lciensing stuff, 2 bad things will happen: 1) Those that read the license will be putoff and stick to something with a license more suited to videobloggers such as mpeg4 or h264 2) Vast numbers of people wont read the licensing stuff at all, people will start publishing divx stuff willy nilly, and then later if you try to reign in this activity, DivX networks will seem like the bad guy. I am begging you to take a look at the mpeg4 and h24 licenses and see if you can incorporate some similar clauses. Exempting video which is under a certain length, under a certain number of viewers, stuff like that, will be important if videobloggers who want to do things by the book (and not get potentially stung in the ass later) are to be able to use DivX with confidence. Also the current DivX Indy license is incompatible with the mash up remix sides of videoblogging culture. Indy creators are onyl allowed to distribute DivX videos of material that they are the copyright holder of. Other clauses such as 'no adult content' only add to the restrivtive feel of all this. Ive never actually looked as to whether Macromedia, Microsoft or Apple impose interesting licensing terms on their media formats, here I am just comparing DivX to what I know of the mpeg4 and h264 licenses.

Then, I have done a variety of manual compressions, m4v, mp4, mov, with Video, or Sorenson 3, or MPEG$ settings. (The h.264 is definitely the best in quality and size). But again, none of the manual compression schemes come up to the quality of the automatic export to iPod (320x240) I have also tried going directly to 320 x 240 DV NTSC from 720x480, and worked a variety of manual compressions, but to no avail. I am curious to know if others have had similar experiences. Chris Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: sony hdr-fx1
Deinterlacing yes a pain, big dissapointment to me that there werent more free/cheap OS X deinterlacing tools. DivX might be able to gain a significant advantage here as there is a deinterlacing option that works built into its converter on Windows and Mac. Im still experimenting with it, dunno if I am even allowed to post DivX test vids due to licensing issues I waffled about earlier! As you dont need to worry about deinterlacing till you encode your video to a resolution thats more than half the vertical resolution of the original, HDV camera users are at an advantage (because they can go up to 960x540 final output res before interlacing issues kick in, as 540= half of 1080 the HDV vertical resolution). I think if people want to go up to resolutions like 640x480 you may as well consider going for native DV resolution instead, as you are going to have to bother about deinterlacing anyway, is there any point shrinking the video just a little bit to 640x480? I guess this partly depends on how things develop with people watching internet video on TV screens in future. I wouldnt be half surprised if things move towards TV resolutions rather than traditional computer resolutions. I go out on limb and predict that 720P (1280x720) may become a popular target resolution at some point. Your video looks ok fullscreen, but largely due to the quality of the original camera footage as opposed to the bitrate res you are using now. The res etc youve chosen makes sense, its not very different from the standard res most people are using, and it looks good enough to me. For sure that doesnt stop me saying that a 960x540 version at a bitrate of somewhere between 1500 and 2000 would look real nice, but will cause all the negative affects people have understandably brought up in this thread. Certainly I wouldnt change to a larger version if I was bandwidth-challenged, and I wouldnt upgrade the res of the videos in an existing feed because yes, many people will only want small videos and could unsubscribe. I expect this stuff to slowly grow with people adding higher definitioon versions as options for those that want such things. And the sort of content really does make a big difference to whether there is any point going to a higher res. Just think of which TV shows are enhanced by being HD, and which genres its not so important for.

I'm not sure how much processing time it adds but I'd like to experiment with a larger format feed. Another potential issue is the additional bandwidth of large videos.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: the lamest format (it's not Flash video)
I think Flash 8 video looks pretty good on the web. My problems with it are: - Requires Flash to encode Flash 8 video. Flash is very expensive software. - Requires Flash 8 plugin to view and is not backwards compatible with previous versions of Flash plugin (if you can't install quicktime plugin, you won't be able to install Flash plugin either). - Still doesn't solve the portability issue with Flash, being that the video file requires a separate controller for playback. Why can't Flash natively play Flash video without a controller? I know its possible to do some cool stuff now with Flash/Actionscript, and there is a new external API for Actionscript that I need to learn more about, but that requires way more development in Flash/Actionscript than I'd care for. my 2 cents. -Josh On 1/20/06, Joe Chapuis [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone here been playing w/ the new Flash Video Encoder included w/ Flash 8 Pro?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: the lamest format (it's not Flash video)
fyi, Steve is referring to 'Indy' License which can be found here:http://www.divx.com/company/partner/indies/Your concerns are legit. Let's see what Jim has to say about it However, worse case for a vlogger using DivX today and who want to provide more licensing flexibility so that others can share and remix etc you simply offer the video in another format such as one of the mp4. In fact, if you are serious enough to be using DivX, then you probably are making other formats available for use on video iPods etcetera. I think even without any ammendments to the DivX Indy License, DivX is going to be a killer platform in 2006. It's just better than anything else and now with the browser plugins for both mac and win its beautiful! With a few adjustments to the licensing... it could be almost perfect ;-)sullOn 1/20/06, Steve Watkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Have you checked out all the licensing stuff on DivXs site? Thats the biggest part of the puzzle not yet completed yet as far as DivX goes.Too many strings attached at the moment, video distributors appear tobe treated differently to creators, and only being granted a license to share divx stuff for 1 year is not well suited to videoblogging.Any progress on this stuff Jim? Should we be assuming thatvideobloggers should be doing the DivX Indy thing for now, or that youhave something more flexible in the works? I congratulate DivX on the strong progress in recent months towardsfixing all the technical issues, such as Mac compatibility, browserplugin (great work!) and progressive download.Once the browser plugin is out of beta, things should really start to take off. But if this happens without changes in your lciensing stuff,2 bad things will happen:1) Those that read the license will be putoff and stick to somethingwith a license more suited to videobloggers such as mpeg4 or h264 2) Vast numbers of people wont read the licensing stuff at all, peoplewill start publishing divx stuff willy nilly, and then later if youtry to reign in this activity, DivX networks will seem like the bad guy. I am begging you to take a look at the mpeg4 and h24 licenses and seeif you can incorporate some similar clauses. Exempting video which isunder a certain length, under a certain number of viewers, stuff like that, will be important if videobloggers who want to do things by thebook (and not get potentially stung in the ass later) are to be ableto use DivX with confidence.Also the current DivX Indy license is incompatible with the mash up remix sides of videoblogging culture. Indy creators are onyl allowedto distribute DivX videos of material that they are the copyrightholder of.Other clauses such as 'no adult content' only add to the restrivtive feel of all this.Ive never actually looked as to whether Macromedia, Microsoft or Appleimpose interesting licensing terms on their media formats, here I amjust comparing DivX to what I know of the mpeg4 and h264 licenses.

I'm suffering huge fits of jealousy as I view other vlogs that have some wonderful animations and was hoping for maybe a smattering of urls to handy animation tip sites tutorials etcetera. Currently I'm using Adobe premier elements and sometimes movie maker when making my things. Dunno if I need to be using a specific program to do animations. Essentially I'm totally lost here.

Speaking of cool thing w/Actionscript and flash video... Keith Peters over at bit-101.com did a cool example w/ a webcam. If you have a webcam...check out his sept. 8th entry.

My problems with it are: - Requires Flash to encode Flash 8 video. Flash is very expensive software. - Requires Flash 8 plugin to view and is not backwards compatible with previous versions of Flash plugin (if you can't install quicktime plugin, you won't be able to install Flash plugin either). - Still doesn't solve the portability issue with Flash, being that the video file requires a separate controller for playback. Why can't Flash natively play Flash video without a controller? I know its possible to do some cool stuff now with Flash/Actionscript, and there is a new external API for Actionscript that I need to learn more about, but that requires way more development in Flash/Actionscript than I'd care for. my 2 cents. -Josh On 1/20/06, Joe Chapuis [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone here been playing w/ the new Flash Video Encoder included w/ Flash 8 Pro? I recently switched to Flash 8 from QT. The quality is much better than it was in Flash 7. I think the compression is better, too. Only problem, is that a lot of people still haven't upgraded their players. Flash 8 won't play on older players. I have a little notice under my videos warning people in advance.

Re: [videoblogging] Video blogging platforms?
well services like blip can cross post to your blog.If you had a wordpress blog for example you could use blip to upload your videos and it would automatically create a blog entry for you - allowing for your users to then comment.

[videoblogging] Re: Video blogging platforms?
Videoblogging stuff exists in some opensource blog platforms/cms stuff now, but development hasnt been all that fast, the usual sort of 'video' mdules are usually pretty simple. A likely solution would be to choose something like Drupal or Joomla (Mambo) and then install an add-on gallery module. It looks like a few gellery modules that can be run standalone or with a few CMS's now support video too. A big question however is wether they integrate with the RSS feed side of the CMS system you go for. If not these galleries may not really be properly connected to the blog side of things, depends what you want though I guess. Anyway heres hoping im all out of date or forgot about some other decent options that exist.

Re: [videoblogging] New here and a question about the tutorial?
Here's why not to use YouTube:1. You videos won't work in an aggregator - ie iTunes, FireAnt, etc2. You grant YouTube a license to use and profit from your work.3. They stick their ugly logo on your video Here's why to use Ourmeida (or Blip.tv)1. You can upload video in the format that you want2. They don't claim any ownership over your work - they respect your creative commons license 3.

Export to mpeg4 Video type: H264 bitrate: about 700kbits/sec frame rate same as source Key frame: dunno, experiment press 'video options' button: Untick Main, tick Baseline Choose Best quality or Faster Encode (see below)* Audio: AAC-LC (Music) 128 kbps rest of audio settings probably dont matter much *Apple made some ipod export changes with qt7.0.4 compared to 7.0.3. Based on encoding times, I believe QT7.0.3 ipod export used multi-pass mode (so better quality) but Apple were getting stick for how slow the export was, so in QT7.0.4 theyve changed it to Single-Pass to stop encoding times being too depressing. Take your pick. Hoe that helps a little, if you are on a Mac then consider trying alternative encoders like iSquint to see if you prefer the quality, if you are on Windows there are other options too.

I have found the quality, and file size of export to iPod (320x240) to be very appealing, with one exception, the stretch factor. Why does Apple not take into consideration the rectangular pixels of the 720x480 format, and make them square to a true 320x240 size, not 320x213? Because every time I have tried a manual compression from DV to 320x240, the image is just not as sharp, and the file sizes are larger than the standard export to iPod 320-x240. And I have tried a variety of compressions. I have tried making a self-contained 720x480 DV NTSC movie into a 640x480 DV NTSC movie. Then, I have done a variety of manual compressions, m4v, mp4, mov, with Video, or Sorenson 3, or MPEG$ settings. (The h.264 is definitely the best in quality and size). But again, none of the manual compression schemes come up to the quality of the automatic export to iPod (320x240) I have also tried going directly to 320 x 240 DV NTSC from 720x480, and worked a variety of manual compressions, but to no avail. I am curious to know if others have had similar experiences. Chris Yahoo! Groups Links YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group videoblogging on the web.

Hi Siobhan,Several video galleries with automatical thumbnail generation is on woomp.com. You can share your galleries with whom you want, but the visitors (still?) cannot add comments there.

Re: [videoblogging] experience with DIY steadicams?

On Jan 19, 2006, at 10:27 AM, Andy Carvin wrote: Hi everyone, I've been thinking about building my own camera stabilizer - a poor man's steadicam, so to speak - and I was wondering if anyone has tried it. I've found a few websites with instructions (or selling instructions), with varying levels of cost and complexity. Two of the more interesting ones are below. The $14 Steadycam http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/steadycam/ The $14 Steadycam is very bare-bones, but the demo footage on the website is pretty good. The author of the page provides free instructions, and he'll even sell you a kit with all of the parts for $39 plus shipping. Here are two demos of it in action: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/steadycam/soccer2.mov http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/steadycam/girl3.mov The instructions and kit look very straightforward, but one practical concern I have is the use of standard plumbing supplies, including pipes and pipe heads. These parts give it somewhat of a T-shaped pipe-bomb look, which could be a major headache if you plan to travel with your steadicam on an airplane. Here's the other one: Hocast Stabilizers http://www.hocast.com/ Hocast seems more sophisticated, but more costly. They have three different models, ranging from a low-budget rig requiring $15 worth of supplies + $13 for the instructions, to a heavy-duty rig requiring $90 of supplies +$22 for the instructions. Their video demos include before/after footage showing how a shot improves by adding the stabilizer: http://www.hocast.com/Video/run.mov http://www.hocast.com/Video/stairs.mov (The clips are _very_ brief, though; frankly, I thought the $14 footage was better.) I've found a few other offers online, but these two are the most intriguing. Has anyone tried building their own steadicam from these sites or others? Have you been happy with the results? thanks, andy -- Andy Carvin acarvin (at) edc . org (until Jan 31) As of February 1: andycarvin (at) yahoo . com http://www.digitaldivide.net http://www.andycarvin.com Yahoo!

That worth a laugh and work friendly is in his signature. Its automatically stuck in at the end of all his messages.

[videoblogging] Tags
Hey all: I would love someone to hold forth on tags. I understand how tags work on mefeedia, but what about imbedding tags into the intro text of our posts? Of the vlogs I frequent it doesn't seem anyone is using them. That is, I don't see them on people's sites. Should we be tagging our posts? If so, how? Rob Yahoo!
