[videoblogging] A call for Art Vlogs and Art Vloggers

2009-03-16 Thread Jeffrey Taylor
Happy Monday, everyone –

As I'm planning this nonprofit for online video art, I'm compiling the most
exhaustive list possible of art vlogs. If any of you could reply with
links of video that you consider arty,  difficult to fund do to the
nature of the programming or great vlog, but not targeted to a large
audience, I would be most grateful.

Thanks heaps.

J

P.S. Ping me if you have any questions about the org, or would like to
participate in the planning process.

I have grouped the vlogs in my People I Watch page into videobloggers  
who tend to make videoblogs about themselves - and those whose work  
is less documentary and often more experimental.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Promoting the .mov option online

2009-03-16 Thread Michael Verdi
Yes, the quality of H.264 is better (especially dual-pass) at the same
bitrate as a VP6 .flv. Also, most encoding applications will let you
limit the bitrate to whatever you want. Want 512kbps? Just set it to
512.

Here's a recent video I did encoded at 732kbps (including 128kbps
audio). It's 640x360, 24fps.
http://michaelverdi.com/index.php/2009/03/10/hanging-out/

The cool thing is that it plays in a flash player on the site, works
on an iPod/iPhone and is just one file.

 The video in the post looks great, but it is encoded at about 1100kbps and 
 I try to keep my Flash videos at a bitrate of 512 kbs in order to accommodate 
 progressive downloading for DSL users.  Am I being too conservative?  Is the 
 quality of H.264 better at the same bitrate as .FLV file? It seems as if the 
 market penetration of FLASH players able to play .MOV files is fairly 
 complete.  Does this mean the end of FLASH videos?

Re: [videoblogging] Video sites with MODx

2009-03-16 Thread Rupert
It's an open source website building platform, more than a blogging  
platform.  Content management system based on PHP and MySQL.  More  
akin to Joomla than Wordpress, for instance.  Some people I know here  
in Vancouver Island introduced me to it.
I know that more and more people here are working outside the blog  
format, so I wondered what people's experience was using it with the  
needs of video and videoblogging.

[videoblogging] Web design/videoblogger for TV project

2009-03-16 Thread Markus Sandy
hi,

greetings from Tennessee! my wife and i are on the road, returning  
from drupalcon DC where there was lots of great discussions around  
media tools and tech

visiting vlogger friends around the US is so much fun.

I was catching up on feeds and just saw this ad from craigslist Santa  
Barbara

Web design/videoblogger for TV project - Web design/videoblogger to  
design web page to promote a TV project. Must be able to insert a  
videoblog. 

mainly sharing because I dig seeing the word videoblogger right out  
there, plus the need for combined skills that are basic to so many  
here. very cool

anyone interested?

I had a chance to grab the new firefox beta today and play with ogg
video. I made a screencast about it here:

 Good. If at least one major browser support it then theres a chance
 something good will come of ogg theora one day.

 Until then, there isnt much point looking at it. ITs not like there is
 a compelling technical reason to use that format. People with a
 special interest in the open issues, or certain Linux users may have
 been passionate about these issues with good reason in the past, but
 the for the majority ogg theora has just seemed like an added pain
 with no gain.

 The relative low cost and ubiquity of mp4  h264, coupled with the
 fact that its been technological issues that have caused people video
 woes, rather than legal or control issues, makes it an uphill battle.
 There has been no big issue which caused the masses to feel stung by
 proprietary codecs, and use of mp4 and h264 doesnt cost the average
 person any money in any way they can tell at least.

 From a web developer and users point of view, a simple video tag for
 html would be very nice, but until all browsers  platforms support at
 least one format as standard, things like flash are still going to be
 a safer choice. It may never happen, but who knows in 5-10 years, I
 woudnt like to predict.

 If we lived in a world where there was a range of opensource hardware
 devices that didnt want to get bogged down with patented closed
 formats, there would be more use for ogg theora?

    We've discussed this before: open video codecs.
  Ogg/theora is the big one people talk about.
  No one owns it and anyone can modify it.
  Its like the Wordpress of video codecs.
 
  The issue has been that you needed to install software to watch
 the Ogg
  format.
  Plus Ogg has been very difficult to embed well.
 
  Supposedly, the next version of Firefox will have Ogg/Theora built in.
  This means anyone using Firefox will be able to watch an Ogg video
  with no effort.
  Still lots of work to get it all to work...but this is pretty
  significant if true.

   Firefox 3.1 will support OGG Theora!
  
   In other words: This is most likely the breakthrough for open

  the web!
   OGG THEORA is the only open source video encoding suite.
   It is available for general use after the bitstream format for
 Theora was
  frozen Thursday, 2004 July 1. http://theora.org
  
   Native support in Firefox means that end-users on proprietary
   platforms like windows or mac do no longer have to install
 additional
   software in order to watch OGG encoded video. If you want to
 publish a
  video you
   can just use the video tag like for any image. There is no
 need for
   additional javascript or flash!

   Ogg Theora support for the HTML5 video tag is in the Firefox 3.1
  nightlies. Theora is the only video format allowed on Wikimedia
   Commons, so Wikimedia people are pushing Wikipedia readers to
 download a
   nightly and try it out. Break it, crash it, report bugs, get it
 into good
   shape and nullify Apple and Nokia's FUD the best way possible.
 They may
  have
   gotten the words 'Vorbis' and 'Theora' removed from the HTML5 spec,
   but
   the market will tell them when their browsers are sucking.

   http://www.0xdeadbeef.com/weblog/?p=492 Mozilla is committing to
  include native support for OGG video and audio in its next release

  Firefox
   3.1 if there no huge change in course.) The code landed for ogg
 support
   last night. I suspect that the effects of this will take a long
 while to
   be felt but it's a great first step in bringing open video to
 the web by
   delivering it to a couple hundred million people around the world.
  
   At KEIN.ORG and in many related projects (like the Dictionary

   we have been insisting on the use of an open video compression
