[videoblogging] sraeli Consulate launches video blog
Israeli Consulate launches video blog The Israeli Consulate in New York launched an online video blog. The Web site, which went live Thursday, will allow Israelis and visitors to Israel to post videos about life in the Jewish state, and will allow others to comment on them. The site, www.israelvideoblog.org, is an effort to highlight a side of Israel not often seen in the mainstream press to an English-speaking audience, the consulate says. "This is a great platform to bypass the conventional media which are mostly, if not only, concentrated on the conflict and do not represent the real situation in Israel," said David Saranga, consul for media and public affairs at the New York consulate. Videos can be posted in sections relating to food, inventions, music, science and wine. The consulate, which says it's the first time a government has sponsored a video blog, sees it as a high-tech PR tool. The site received more than 100,000 hits on its first day. http://jta.org/page_view_breaking_story.asp?intid=1394-- best regards,Deirdré Straughanwww.beginningwithi.com (personal) www.tvblob.com (work) SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO!

[videoblogging] Re: Xacti HD1 NYTimes review
Thanks for all the info! Low cost substitute? You speak my language! --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, cooper3acd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Bitrate/quality might be an issue (although I long for one too)... Here's an article that I wrote in January for a photo newsletter for www.pixpo.com (shameless plug) that talks gently about some of its shortcomings (further shameless plug - we'll have a very cool pc/mac video broadcasting product later in the year)... /end plug, here's the aritcle: Looking for a high performance hybrid camera? Sanyo recently announced their combination VPC-HD1 5mp still camera/high definition camcorder that records to SD cards for a startlingly low $800. This camera is sleek and compact and is the hottest ticket on many a high-tech wish-list right now. So, what's the catch? Well, it doesn't come with an SD card, but the ones that come in the box with new cameras are typically so small that they're useless anyhow. The only other catch is that it writes to MPEG4 at a 9 Megabit per second data rate - most current HD (1280 x 720) cameras write to MPEG2 at 20 Megabit per seconds or higher. So, given this bitrate issue, is the camera still the incredible value it appears to be? Well, unfortunately we can't answer that just yet as the VPC-HD1 won't be available until March. Our advice at this point is to sit on that wallet and wait to read a few user reviews before making your move. In the meantime, here's what a couple of alternatives look like: A Step Up? Sony Handycam HDR-HC1 This Sony is not quite as sleek as the Sanyo, writes to MiniDV tapes instead of SD cards and has significantly lower stills resolution with 2.8 megapixel photo capture. Nonetheless, this entry level HD cam looks great from a video perspective. This Sony almost triples the data rate of the Sanyo, writing at 25 megabits per second to MPEG2. With this in mind, the Sony is worth looking at if top quality video is your top, although the $1800 price tag pushes it a bit past the budget of many hobbyists. Low Cost Substitute? Pentax Optio MX4 If you want a hybrid camera with video features such as zoom being enabled while recording, a camera like the MX4 might be worth considering. At a street price of around $300 this camera has quite a bit of bang for the buck. That said, if you are serious about stills OR video, this may not deliver what you're looking for. While it is indeed a fun camera, the responsiveness and focusing of this camera are nowhere near what you'll find in the Sony or Sanyo. So good luck with your shopping. If you have your own opinion on the best choice for a hybrid, please e-mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] - you might just find your input included in our next newsletter. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, missbhavens1969 missbhavens1969@ wrote: I'm amassing a pile of things to sell on ebay to finance the purchase of one of these.

Re: [videoblogging] Server stats question
BITS is a system service that applications can use to transfer files asynchronously between a client and an HTTP server. Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) is a Windows component that asynchronously transfers files in the foreground or background, throttles the transfers to preserve the responsiveness of other network applications, and will automatically resume file transfers when a computer is restarted and a network connection is re-established. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8c6ef6c8-2abf-43c7-ab51-e0c53303086dDisplayLang=en it appears that this is being used more in some products in my opinion, this is a Blip.tv reporting issue more than anything else and I really wish they would address it as it's really annoying it's been mentioned several times in the blip group, but so far nothing has been done about it i really wish blip would figure this out (it's fairly old MS technology, I believe).

[videoblogging] Re: Xacti HD1 NYTimes review
Well MPEG4 is pretty much designed to give better quality at lower bitrates than MPEG2. So a MPEG4 @ 9Mbit will look better than MPEG2 at 9Mbit. We cant say that MPEG4 @ 9Mbit is exactly eiquvalent to MPEG2 @ 25MBit, but Id expect it to look good. Perhaps a biger issue is just how good the mpeg4 encoder is in that camera. From early sneek-peaks, it sounds like it doesnt do very well in low t scenarios. This is more down to the capturing part of the camera than the encoder, but the more noise artifacts are passed to the encoder, the worse it will look. Both MPEG2 and MPEG4 are not as easy to edit as good old mini DV, and HD places attiditonal load on the system. Things are improving on the MPEG2 HDV stuff, slowly, as more apps support it. The same is starting to happen with MPEG4, but it will be a while till there is as much choice flexibility in the MPEG2/4 editing software market as there is for miniDV. The big plus side of this camera being 720P is that its progressive, so that gets rid of a lot of deinterlacing headaches. Cheers Steve of Elbows --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, cooper3acd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Bitrate/quality might be an issue (although I long for one too)... Here's an article that I wrote in January for a photo newsletter for www.pixpo.com (shameless plug) that talks gently about some of its shortcomings (further shameless plug - we'll have a very cool pc/mac video broadcasting product later in the year)... /end plug, here's the aritcle: Looking for a high performance hybrid camera? Sanyo recently announced their combination VPC-HD1 5mp still camera/high definition camcorder that records to SD cards for a startlingly low $800. This camera is sleek and compact and is the hottest ticket on many a high-tech wish-list right now. So, what's the catch? Well, it doesn't come with an SD card, but the ones that come in the box with new cameras are typically so small that they're useless anyhow. The only other catch is that it writes to MPEG4 at a 9 Megabit per second data rate - most current HD (1280 x 720) cameras write to MPEG2 at 20 Megabit per seconds or higher. So, given this bitrate issue, is the camera still the incredible value it appears to be? Well, unfortunately we can't answer that just yet as the VPC-HD1 won't be available until March. Our advice at this point is to sit on that wallet and wait to read a few user reviews before making your move. In the meantime, here's what a couple of alternatives look like: A Step Up? Sony Handycam HDR-HC1 This Sony is not quite as sleek as the Sanyo, writes to MiniDV tapes instead of SD cards and has significantly lower stills resolution with 2.8 megapixel photo capture. Nonetheless, this entry level HD cam looks great from a video perspective. This Sony almost triples the data rate of the Sanyo, writing at 25 megabits per second to MPEG2. With this in mind, the Sony is worth looking at if top quality video is your top, although the $1800 price tag pushes it a bit past the budget of many hobbyists. Low Cost Substitute? Pentax Optio MX4 If you want a hybrid camera with video features such as zoom being enabled while recording, a camera like the MX4 might be worth considering. At a street price of around $300 this camera has quite a bit of bang for the buck. That said, if you are serious about stills OR video, this may not deliver what you're looking for. While it is indeed a fun camera, the responsiveness and focusing of this camera are nowhere near what you'll find in the Sony or Sanyo. So good luck with your shopping. If you have your own opinion on the best choice for a hybrid, please e-mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] - you might just find your input included in our next newsletter. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, missbhavens1969 missbhavens1969@ wrote: I'm amassing a pile of things to sell on ebay to finance the purchase of one of these.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Server stats question
André here, from TVTonic, the video aggregator featured in Windows Media Center's Online Spotlight. I have contacted many of you about having listed your feeds in our directory. The TVTonic client uses Microsoft BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer Service) to download video content. Videobloggers seeing traces of BITS in their stats could possibly be seeing TVTonic users pulling their videos, however they could also be coming from other RSS clients, such as the RSS reader built in to IE7 which uses BITS. See http://blogs.msdn.com/rssteam/archive/2006/02/02/522642.aspx BITS is the technology that Microsoft uses to deliver Windows Automatic Updates. As Markus said, it is a component designed to control and throttle background downloads as not to make any large resource hit on a user's computer. But the problem, it seems, with BITS is that it makes a substantial number of webserver requests. If you look at your server log you might think that BITS is hammering your bandwidth because of the high number of requests. This is because it is making requests to the server for small chunks of a file rather than one request for the whole file itself. Once it has collected all of the bits of a file, it marks it as being finished and makes the file available to the user. We have actually started to see several servers block requests from the BITS useragent. Revision3's servers (Diggnation Systm), as well as Channel Frederator, to name a few. Recently we've started to see some strange messages get returned from libsyn. FYI – we are contacting the blip developers to see if there is a way we can work together to ensure their users are receiving less confusing stats. I'll keep everyone posted. I hope that clarifies this BITS issue for many of you. Please feel free to contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you have more questions. Sincerely, André Sala TVTonic Team Yahoo!

You should definately have both set (if you are listed in iTunes) because other aggregators should not be expected to handle iTunes custom specs (though is possible of course) and if you want your logo or whatever image you use to be viewed everywhere that handles your vodcast, then you should do this. I was about to add support for iTunes channel image but i was annoyed and right now i decided not to.

Re: [videoblogging] Finally a video podcast that brings you the freshest in British new music
My question to the technically inclined is this: how does one go about shrinking a 320MB .m4v file into something that is more manageable for download and upload? I'd like to 'podcast up' the 30 minute edits we have of the launch night but they are very large. We are currently making one available as a .wmv download. Not ideal but the file size is a more manageable 60MB. Does anyone else have any experience of creating 20minutes plus of video for podcasting. Are there compression programs I should try out? Do you warn potential subscribers about the file size/potential long download in your summary file or just serve it up? What could go wrong, if, say a download was halted, for example? -- I don't think, given the automatic nature of general podcasting, that anything more than 10 mins is desirable. Nothing to stop one from offering a seperate feed with longer pieces for those who want it tho. Literally millions of people bittorrent, and think nothing of up/downloading entire DVD's In fact, in the world of bittorrenting, until the advent of the ipod at least, files of anything less than DVD (or DivX equivalent) were considered inferior and looked down on. Personally, I use the Internet Archive, who actually specifically ask that one contribute as higher quality source as possible, when long form is asked for. And also, on occasion, bittorrent out at DVD quality. Veoh, and even google, are other options. joly --- WWWhatsup NYC http://pinstand.com - http://punkcast.com --- Yahoo!

I'm a big fan of the desktop player because it means that I can load up my laptop and watch stuff on plane trips. I am baffled as to why airlines think that people want to watch Everybody Loves Raymond every time they fly. In New York, I'm ALWAYS online, but in New Orleans, we don't have a tv or an internet connection.

[videoblogging] Announcing: The New Media Collective
Hello Everyone, My name is Melanie Morgan, and I've been videoblogging since October 2005 (http://nyc-tv.com), and blogging since April '05. I've also been lurking on this forum for a while, and have really learned a lot; some of which I've applied to my newest project, The New Media Collective (launched February 1 2006). The focus of this site is to showcase digital media makers of color (videobloggers, podcasters, bloggers, photobloggers); to let people know—and see—that we're very present in the digital realm. Although not actually a videoblog, the site will have video on it, as well as other media. The goal is to create an information resource and social network teaching and promoting citizen media, particularly to those who would not otherwise have knowledge of, or access to it. We all need to know and understand these outlets and technologies and use them to tell our own stories—accurately. If you find any of this of interest, please check out the site (http://newmediacollective.org). And if you are a person of color, please add your vlog, podcast, blog or photoblog to our directory. (People need to know where to find us!) I've also included a resources page with a list of media-related sites. At this time, I'm in the process of interviewing media makers throughout the blogosphere (right now there are 2 up). As we go along, I'd like to add more content in the way of video, audio, and text articles. If anyone would like to contribute content (articles, media, site links), please let me know (melanie [at] newmediacollective [dot] org). Peace Love attachment: Signature_2.jpg BTW, this is a Node101-affiliated project based in NYC. Thanks to Ryanne and Jay, as always, for their support. The New Media Collective It's a WE thing! http://newmediacollective.org
Re: [videoblogging] Re: Xacti HD1 NYTimes review
I read that review and all of the complaints seem like they could be said about my camera - Xacti C5 except that I think the image stabilization is great and the OLED screen is way better than the LCD screen on my DV cam. This has been my experience. If you use the camera in good lighting and practice with the manual focus, you can get results that look pretty darn good. Not as good as DV but good. In very low light it's completely useless. The review complains about 1hr battery life. That's what my camera gets - it's a microscopic battery though. I bought a second one so I can shoot for 2 hours before recharging. This hasn't been an issue in the 6 months I've had my camera. The data rate of this new camera is about 3X that of mine and so is the frame size. So I'm expecting that it will have similar video quality - just bigger.In my opinion the BIG advantage of any mpeg4/digital still camera/etc is their small size. That small Sony HD camera looks nice but it's nearly the size of my digital 8. It's small but not fit-in-your-pocket small. That's the whole reason to buy one of these camera. You'll take places that you wouldn't lug a regular camera around. This is like carrying around a cell phone. One other flaw in my camera that's annoying but not unworkable is that the audio and video are always off by 5 frames. It's an easy fix to move the audio forward 5 frames but it would be awesome if I didn't have to do that. -Verdi SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO!

What makes it good or bad for you? Small window, buffering delays. Do you like special software to handle video playback? Do you care about online video working like a TV so you can channel surf?Are you online most of the time? Have broadband? Except when commuting on the train. Commute and use a portable device? Whats it like for you? Not yet. -- best regards,Deirdré Straughanwww.beginningwithi.com (personal) www.tvblob.com (work) SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO!

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Server Cooperative -- wanna start one?
Even if you can only get 5 or 10 people to contribute, you should go for it. It's a great idea. Not only bandwidth, but server speed could be improved. If I had the need for it, I'd be in on it.10 people at 10 bucks a month buys a $99 Dreamhost dedicated server, I'm pretty sure.

Has this been tried on this group? If every member of this group is paying a monthly basic web hosting fee of $5, that's almost $10,000 a month and that buys A LOT of bandwidth.

Because such a small percentage of the general population knows how to use those things. Until it becomes seamless, where you just click the link and the video plays, those things aren't really that attractive to me. I mean, my parents wouldn't be able to watch any of my videos anymore, which would probably be a good thing. Unless your audience is made up entirely of internet geeks, you won't be able to reach them using these things. Yet. Someone will come up with a transparent usage of BitTorrent. Dijjer is close. But close only counts in horseshoes and handgrenades. SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Use YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group "videoblogging" on the web.
