I hope that explains it well enough. Thanks again ..Sara Sara, I think I've figured out why you didn't get a helpful response from your original support e-mail. Emily responded? We don't have any Emily working with us! Are you absolutely certain that you sent the e-mail to supp...@...? Not .com or .fm? It is good to use the form at http://blip.tv/help/, because not only is it certain to avoid the unhelpful Emily, but it also gives us information about your set up which can help us diagnose problems. We do test on Internet Explorer versions 6 7. If something is screwy, we'd be very interested in the details so we can try to reproduce it. Thanks again, Rupert, for your help!

I left out the part where I should have said copy and paste the code. I think you might be so frustrated with it all that you're looking too hard. You're on the video page, you've clicked Share, chosen Embed and clicked Go - then just copy the code that appears. Don't click Edit player customizations. The code you're supposed to be embedding starts with this: embed src=http://blip.tv/play/... That's what you want to copy and paste into your page. Just that. It's in a big box directly under the thing you've just clicked. Like I said, you can just leave the setting on the Default Show Player. As I said before, this Default Show Player is not the other Whole Show Player you've been embedding, this is a different single episode player. Or, if you want to use your customized player with the branding and color changes you made in the Manage Show Player section, you can choose it by clicking Default Show Player - a menu will pop up and you can choose your own player. That will change the embed code, and you can copy that.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: manage Show Player
I don't know how to do that. Looking at the options, as you have, I can't see a way to do it. I'm surprised, because almost everything else you can turn on or off. There might be a parameter you can put into the Advanced section - try using the form on the Blip site to ask them.

Alright I will go ask them...there must be a way to turn that off ..because they have it turned off on the other video I mentioned...I kind of figured it was in advanced ..but hated to go messing with things I don't know well enough about .. You could also emal the site you want to mimic. If they have figured out the way you want to cusyomize, Im sure they'll clue you in. Could you share this site you are working on? Itll help us understand what you;re trying to do. Jay -- http://ryanishungry.com http://jaydedman.com http://twitter.com/jaydedman 917 371 6790
[videoblogging] iPhone compatible Blip embeds
This happened 3 months ago, but I didn't see it until just now. Blip have created a feature that allows you to view videos embedded with Blip's show player on an iPhone. Usually all flash embedded videos won't work on the iPhone, and YouTube have cornered the market through their iPhone app. My workaround has been to provide a text link to a compatible mp4 underneath my embeds - but that's no longer necessary. You can see the How To video here: http://blog.wired.com/business/2008/11/blip-brings-vid.html You have to create a customized player with iPhone compatible enabled in the Features tab when you're creating your custom player - and have an iPhone compatible mpeg4 file uploaded to Blip, of course. (or have them create one for you if you're a Pro user). Blip rules. (even if you can't turn off the More button) Rupert http://twittervlog.tv

Hi Everyone Just a quick update on the progress of the planning document for the as-yet unnamed non-profit organization for artistic online video. First and foremost, if you got this mail and have no idea what I am talking about, please take a look at the doc or ping me for the lowdown. So here's what's new: 1. Lots of collaborators of all shapes, sizes and types. We're glad you're here and really want you to contribute to the planning process! 2. Identity Crisis - We're looking for a name for the org so we can get a small online presence going and start creating a visual (logo). We've got some great candidates for names already, but we could use your word skills to come up with more. We'd like to put 10 candidates up for a vote soon, so time is of the essence! 3. Who are you? - We've added a section to the doc. in which people can list who they are and what skills they can bring to the table as this org gets going. This little census will be a big help, so please add yourself as soon as you can. 4. Etc. Etc. We've taken steps to broadly define online video art, and have gotten more precise with the org's purpose. Take a look and tell us if you agree or disagree. There's also some possible activities that we need to add to the org's scope, and any additions and feedback would be most helpful. There's more, but you'll have to look at the doc to see. Finally, just a reminder that anyone is welcome to come and collaborate. If you're having trouble inviting collaborators or have an allergy to google docs, please ping me and I will help in any way you can. Thanks to everyone for their time. The more we collaborate, the more we bring ideas to reality. Cheers, Jeffrey cheers Adrian Miles adrian.mi...@rmit.edu.au bachelor communication honours coordinator vogmae.net.au
