[videoblogging] Making Vlog Europe 2008 Vlog GLobal
Well, we've run into a problem...a good sort of problem. I was worried that events were not getting off the ground for vloggers for the boring old can't be arsed to do it reasons, but I think the truth of the matter is far more encouraging: People are just damn busy doing great things, and or/are sacrificing income for the sake of their projects for various reasons. With the above in mind, I'm working with a few people to find a way to *make a small portion of Vlog Europe Vlog Global* via Flashmeeting or some other means that can have the most people participate simultaneously. Just because we are all busily trying to make things work does not mean we can't come together and talk about what we're up to, what we sand for and what we're hoping and planning. Details are sketchy at the moment, but I am certain that we'll be doing whatever we do for a couple of hours on Saturday 18 October. Look for more information laterperhaps later today (Monday).

Kristiansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 2008/9/2 Subject: [vlogeurope] VlogEurope 2008 practical info To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello all, Here is some practical information for VlogEurope 2008 which takes place in Budapest, October 18th-19th 2008. == What is VlogEurope? == VlogEurope is a yearly meeting of videobloggers and vlog-interested from Europe and beyond. It took place first time in September 2005 in Amsterdam, and has since taken place twice - in 2006 (Milan) and 2007 (Heidelberg). This year, VlogEurope takes to Hungary and Budapest which is a dynamic central European city. As in earlier years, a central part of VlogEurope is to explore the city/area around it, and we got a few surprises for participants up the sleeve :) == Participation Fee== Thanks to generous sponsorships, VlogEurope is a free event to attend. == Transportation == As we have earlier discussed on this mailinglist, an idea this year is to book a bus to travel from France towards Hungary. This, however, turned out to be far too expensive so we are currently thinking of renting a few vans/larger cars. These vans (2 or 3?) would then departure from different destinations and make it towards Budapest, and back. Loiez Deniel has more information about this, but a suggestion put forward is to have one van driving from Amsterdam, and another from Lyon. Comments? == Accommodation == We have found a loft apartment in Budapest that has 18 beds divided into three rooms. This will be the VlogEurope HQ during this weekend Here you can read more about the space: http://www.lofthostel.hu/ We have reserved the 18 beds for the night of October 17th and 18th. This means that we check in on friday 17th and check out again on Sunday 19th. The cost of these 18 beds is covered with a surplus from VlogEurope budget last year, thanks to the sponsors BlogTV, Xacti, Blip.tv and TechSmith. This means that in addition to there being no participation fee for VlogEurope, we can maybe give you free accommodation as well! :) Q: Who will be assigned these 18 beds? A: It is a mixture of first come - first served and a priority being given to students or others of low income. If you already signed up at the wiki ( http://vlogeurope.com/wiki/index.php?title=2008_Participants ) - great :) Q: How do I actually sign up? A: Send an e-mail to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Q: What if I want to arrive earlier and/or stay later at this same place? A: Please send an email to Katie at [EMAIL PROTECTED] saying you are part of VlogEurope, and would like an extended stay. The max cost (4-bed dorm) is 4500 Hungarian Forints which equals about 19. You can see the prices here: http://www.lofthostel.hu/booking.html . Note: You will pay for your additional nights while in Budapest - everything at LoftHouse is done in cash. Also please make sure that you list your arrival and departure days here: http://vlogeurope.com/wiki/index.php?title=2008_Participants VlogEurope 2008 is approaching fast! I am looking forward to meeting you all and exploring Budapest with you while talking about all things vlog-related. Got any questions?

[videoblogging] Viewing My Video on Real Player Windows Media Player vs on DVD on a TV monitor
Following filming, editing, and making a file of my video I was pleased to make a DVD and watch it on a televsion screen. Everything looked good on the television screen. Then I opened up my file to watch it on Real Player and Windows Media Player. To my surprise the images in the part where I hand held the camera to do a pan shot are nowhere near as clear as the same clip on the televsion monitor. Whereas the televsion monitor showed a pleasing pan of the scene, Real Player and Windows Media Player are not able to maintain solid images of people during the panning with many multiple images blurring and shaking the moving picture. This is the exact same clip from the raw footage. Any explanation or solution? Or have I done something wrong?

This is the exact same clip from the raw footage. Any explanation or solution? Or have I done something wrong? Some important details are missing here - Are you looking at exactly the same file in all cases (as in, are you playing the DVD back on your computer and comparing that to playback of the DVD in your DVD player)? Is the TV screen an interlaced screen vs. your progressive screen on your computer? I'm guessing you're seeing interlacing artifacts on the computer but not on TV. Also the monitor's refresh rate vs. the TV refresh rate can make a difference depending on what type of content you have (is this 29.97 fps or 24p?) Jake Ludington http://jakeludington.com
Re: [videoblogging] Viewing My Video on Real Player Windows Media Player vs on DVD on a TV monito
It sounds like one of two problems ... (a) you might not have enough processor power to play back the file smoothly on your computer (b) the encoding settings you selected make the file choppy (lower bit rates don't handle pans or fast motion gracefully) What did you use to encode the Real/Windows Media files? Have you tried encoding to DiVX or Quicktime?

Re: [videoblogging] multiple videos?
Hey Brian, Saw this in the G-train subway, I think it was my stop at Classon Ave: http://flickr.com/photos/wreck/2895817261/ It's always weird seeing something you think exists only on the Internet out in the real world.

I think you are using vpip so you can only put one video there. The reason it's designed that way is that you can only have one RSS enclosure per post - which is why we usually stick to one video per post.
