Re: [videoblogging] Screen capture software?

2009-01-14 Thread David King
Jing still has a free version - the pro version DOES cost, but gives you
more options... most usefully, an mpeg-4 H264 video option that can be
edited all the usual ways, instead of just a flash movie. And you can get
rid of the Jing logos. All for $14.95 a year. Probably worth it!

 Hi there!

 I wanted to ask the videoblogging collective what your favorite (and
 perferably free?) screen capture software is. I'm talking about to
 teach someone how to perform a function on a desktop. Audio is cool,
 but not necessary; I can add audio afterwards.

 Thoughts? Thanks!

I gather free info from the web and share it on a website. The free 
screencapture and screen capture software I've heard about is here--
http://www.freemediaguide.com/free_screen_capture_casting.html
 
For PC I recommend Jing or CamStudio.

[videoblogging] 17 Macbook Pro 2.6 Ghz for sale... Ferrari of portable video editing machines

2009-01-14 Thread Mike Meiser
Howdy All,

I don't normally post stuff for sale here except that this is so incredibly
on topic. I hope if you're offended you can forgive me.

It's that time of year again where my buddy upgrades to the latest greatest
macbook.

This means last year's model, less than a year old, goes on sale and he's
asked me to help him find a buyer since these things make the best video
editing machines on the planet.  Hence, I offer it here first.

This isn't the first laptop he's sold here, I believe he sold last years
model to Adam of Wreck  Salvage fame. (Hope you don't mind me mentioning
that Adam.)  I personally would buy it but I'm quite happy with the last one
I bought off him, a 2.2Ghz 17 from two model years ago.

To put it simply this macbook is perhaps, scratch that, is *definitely* the
best portable video editing machine on the planet aside from the brand new
macbook just announced at Macworld.

It has the optional 1920x1200 glossy screen, the highest res ever on a
macbook, he maxed out the ram with 4 gigs, and it's an absolutely top of the
line 2.6GHZ model. In short, it's as pimp as you can possibly get. There's
nothing more one could add to it or buy for it, let alone any laptop.

...well... you could add a new 256gig Samsung SSD drive that they announced
at CES this week which will go on sale later this year (200MBs read / 140MBs
write, 3.6ms seek times)... drewl. :)

But I'm off track. You get the idea. This is the ferrari of portable video
editing machines. There's nothing better then it but the new mbooks
announced at Macworld a couple weeks ago.


== the specs ==

17 dual-core 2.6 GHz
1920 x 1200 glossy screen
4GB RAM
800 MHz Bus
300GB sATA
512MB GeForce 8600M GT video card
8x dual-layer superdrive
more info: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP4

*This is the last, latest and greatest macbook pro with a REMOVEABLE
BATTERY. This new model just announced at macworld has it built in.

I'd also like to point out this supports dual display and video mirroring.
From apple's product sheet, simultaneously supports full native resolution
on the built-in display and up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on an external
display, both at millions of colors.  30 Apple Cinema display anyone?


== condition ==

It's in perfect condition, complete with packaging, and original software.
It's still under full apple warranty until late march, which automaticaly
transfers to the new owner. Plus you can still purchase the apple extended
warranty should you want it. So basically... it's as good as purchasing it
new.


== price  shipping ==

He's hoping to get $3k for it.

He will of course ship. I believe it was about $85 last year for UPS
Priority with insurance. FedEx is also an option.

He does live in Phoenix and is willing to deliver if you live there.


== contact ==

His email is af_weeks at mac dot com. Feel free to contact him.


Thank you, and I hope I haven't offended anyone by posting an item for sale
here.

2009-01-14 Thread Mike Meiser
Aha... umm... I guess I'm a big honking idiot.
I failed to realize how cheap the top of the line macbooks were. $2800 isn't
the entry level one either. It's pretty much fully loaded.  Even comes with
4gig ram. This includes shipping, but not tax. Of course it's not actually
shipping until 3-4 weeks, but still.

It was not my intention, nor my friends to post this overpriced. Please
forgive me.

I'd also like to point out the apple factory refurb page has four 2.6 ghz on
sale for $2300
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac

Those posted on apples site have much smaller drives and only two gigs of
ram, but they're still a superb deal.

I therefore apologize for being a nuisance and suggest if you do want a deal
on one you buy it from the refurb page and buy ram through a third party and
upgrade it yourself.

If you do want to make my friend an offer I supposed you could still email
him. I suspect he might take something around $2500-2700, but to be honest
I'm not sure what would be considered a fail deal now that I've seen the
price on the refurbs and the new models.

On a side note, it's amazing how fast these things depreciate in a year. I'm
quite certain that's at least $1k less then he paid for it.

Still. It's better than the depreciation on a car I guess.

My apologies.

fail deal
lol

I meant to say fair deal.

That was a freudian slip if I've ever seen one.

... yet somehow I managed to use new age internet speak so I guess that's at
least a testament to my geek-hip-ness.

I even make freudian slips in 1337 speak.

Massive fail.

Please at the very least have a laugh at my expense. :)

Man, those things are awesome Randy, but my friend is not a video geek, he's
an apple and photo geek with a Nikon D300 series, I think I like them more
then the Canons for photo. :)
BTW, have you seen the new Canon EOS 5D Mark II? Drewl power. A DSLR that
shoots great video? Can it be? I'd love to hear what someone with more video

Re: [videoblogging] Boxee: open source media player

2009-01-14 Thread Mike Meiser
So, I finally got around to checking out boxee now that that it's in public
beta.
I like what I see so far. Love it actually... and I haven't even fired up
the software.

I have a couple questions though.

1) How in the world can it handle netflix streaming??   Netflix streaming
uses silverlight. So far as I know it's not been cracked, and without being
cracked it can't be built into Boxee.

Then again, I see boxee is built of the open source XBMC media player which
was built for microsoft's Xbox... so maybe Silverlight DRM scheme is in
Boxee!?  Open source is by definitition sort of morally, legally and
diametrically opposite DRM since it relies on secrete code, but perhaps
boxee is based on some new open source license that makes exceptions. Or
perhaps Silverlight really has been reverse engineered.

Still researching


2) It handles bittorrent feeds?  This I have to see. I assume it has it
implimented into the interface and downloads in the background. Yet nothing
I've seen... even miro has made bittorrent seemless and transparent... i.e.
auto-magic. Bittorrent has always required at the very least some heavy
configuration and you to kick out old seeds.


3) Can we share usernames? I'm dying to try out the social features.  Mine
is mmeiser. Will be looking for other videobloggers on there.

More questions and answers to come soon.

Peace,

-Mike
