Re: [videoblogging] iPhone app lockdown apparently confirmed

2007-01-14 Thread Arnþór Snær
Is there something more to the WiFi/Browser capability of the iPhone
that sets it apart?

Those are features. What sets the iPhone appart, (according to the demo), is
that it's got new features, style, improvements on existing tools (sms,
voicemail, phone). Add to that, it all seems very usable. Innovation is not
just inventing.

 Is there something more to the WiFi/Browser capability of the iPhone

Re: [videoblogging] wordpress feeds questions

2006-02-22 Thread Arnþór Snær
Wordpress still seems to have issues with putting some video filetypes
in enclosures.

A plugin called Podpress promises to fix that, but i havent tried it.

To have the video link in the enclosures, i add a custom field when
posting, called enclosure and include the link and the bytesize of
the video.


I thought at first feedburner would take care of this for me when it
picked up the wordpress feed but no.

  subscribed?

  yep, and in the past the auto enclosure in WP was a pain (might be fixed

Fireant isnt receptive to the feed, i think the video url has to be in
the enclosure tag of the feed. Feedburner (.com) can probably create a
compatible feed for you.

I don't know about PSP but the iPod will only play files with AAC audio. MP3 audio in a video file will not work on an iPod.

Do you have a link to that embeded qt file that won't play? I don't understand what would make it play locally and not from the web. 

I noticed h.264/AAC exported out of Vegas plays in QT offline, but not embedded online - I don't

  How many of you are introverts, and how many are extroverts?
 
  Some detail:
  An introvert  is someone who is re-energized by being alone, but when
  they spend a lot of time around people, they feel drained and maybe
  anxious afterwards.
 
  An extrovert is the opposite: energized in the presence of others, but
  drained after a weekend in isolation.
 
  Most people are somewhere in the middle. Note that this has nothing to
  do with shyness or stage fright/stage presence.
 
  I would like the lurkers to respond, too, if you all don't mind (since
  otherwise the results will naturally be skewed towards the extroverts,
  introverts being more likely to lurk on forums).  Where do you put
  yourself in the introvert/extrovert spectrum? [If you've taken the
  Meiers-Brigg personality test, you pretty much know already]. And if
  you're willing to mention it, where is your videoblog?
 
  I'm interested to know if there's a higher percentage of one
  personality trait or the other, and I'm keenly interested in knowing
  if introverts and extroverts make different styles of videoblogs.
 
  Also, if you're the kind of person who adamantly hates labels like
  this, I guess I don't mind you not answering.

  Its an excerpt that is newsworthy so it should fall under fair
  use... it would be more clear cut as fair use if it also contained
  some commentary.

Actually, it now has two comments on its blog post.  although
they were made after the fact.. its greyish at least

Re: [videoblogging] RSS in IE7

  Personally I don't think the way IE7 (apparently), Firefox, or Safari
 handle RSS feeds. How do they save you any time? You still have to check a
 single RSS feed at a time.

 Am I missing something?

Maybe, back when i used safari for rss, i'd put the feed in bookmark
folders which would be positioned right below the address bar, for
example i'd have a folder called news which would give me the total
unread posts news (32) every time i'd open safari.
I would then click it and click open all posts and every unread post
from those feed would open.

Very nice, maybe a little too nice, i stopped using it like that
because i almost became addicted to reading every single unread post.
Because it was so visible it had to be read.

Which is exactly the reason i don't like google reader (or do i  :)

Re: [videoblogging] 1-click subscription button for FireAnt

2006-01-31 Thread Arnþór Snær
Why have the browsers failed here? None of them responds in the same
way when a user clicks an rss feed.

Why cant it be as easy as my browser recognising that i've clicked rss
and asking me i've noticed that youre opening a rss file / feed /
channel, what do you want to do with it and giving me a choice of my
installed feed reading capable applications, fireant, feedreader,
itunes, etc.?

Instead this had to become the middle-mans problem and now there are
gazillion solutions, feedburners, buttons and what have you. Only
those who already know feeds, podcasting etc have a clue what those 10
buttons on a site do, so it doesn't really ease the barrier to entry.

Sorry for going on a rant.

Cheers to Fireant, the new directory and its development team who are
really there for their users.

p.s. actually the PSP browser gets it right, it notices that i have
clicked a channel and asks me if i want to subscribe to it.

  Hey all,

  A lot of people have asked us for an easy, 1-click method for viewers
  to subscribe to feeds with FireAnt. Well, here it is and its easy!

  Put a FireAnt 1-click subscription button to your site!

  Make your FireAnt 1-click subscription button here:
   http://FireAnt.tv/buttonmaker 

  This will make code for you to copy and paste into your site.

  When a viewer clicks this button on your site it will popup a small
  window that explains subscription, offers a download link for FireAnt
  if the user doesn't already have it, and includes a subscription link
  that launches FireAnt and auto-subscribes to your RSS channel (okay,
  so that's really 2-clicks).

  Users will need the latest version of FireAnt for this to work.
  If you haven't downloaded the latest version, please get it at:
   http://FireAnt.tv/download 

  Lastly, if you haven't seen our new website and videoblog Directory,
  please go to:
   http://FireAnt.tv 

  Please let us know if you have questions. We always try to answer

Re: [videoblogging] 1 feed for Quictime 1 for WMV

2006-01-31 Thread Arnþór Snær
Same question got asked this weekend so i can copy/paste my tip

Here is one possible solution:

get a del.icio.us account,
bookmarks your vidoes (direct links) and
tag each of them as wmv or mov

create two feedburner feeds and point each of them to
the wmv or mov rss.

the feed being something like:
http://del.icio.us/rss/yourusername/mov

http://del.icio.us/rss/yourusername/wmv


if i understand you correctly, that should work.
its a slightly cumbersome way to set it up, but fairly easy to use
with the del.icio.us browser buttons

Thats a good solution. Go FireAnt.

It's all xml in the end right.
Could an application register itself as the default handler for a

Re: [videoblogging] question on media:thumbnail and feedburner

2006-01-24 Thread Arnþór Snær
I am trying out the DTV aggregator and for some feedburner feeds it is
displaying the images with the posts, but not with my feed.

I initially thought this was due to the placement of the jpg in
media:thumbnail tag, but i was mistaken.

Here are some examples.

These one's thumbnails work in dtv:
His master's toys :  http://feeds.feedburner.com/CsfVlog
kitykity's vlog :  http://feeds.feedburner.com/kitykity

but this one does not:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/EscapeVlog

This issue may be better addressed to dtv, but i thought i'd give this
a go here, since there maybe someone who already tackled this here as
well as i figured there might be a standard for this accross the
video aggregators, mefeeda, dtv etc.

Re: [videoblogging] question on media:thumbnail and feedburner

2006-01-24 Thread Arnþór Snær
Yeb, i thought of that and that doesnt seem to work either.

After better examining the feed i noticed that this was an issue with
wordpress stripping autogenerated excerpt in the rss/description tag
of html.

So duplicating entry in the wordpress excerpt solved the problem.
I could have messed with the rss feed but that would have been less
elegant solution.

Thanks for your help Josh.

  There are a few ways to get image thumbnails.
  What I suspect DTV is doing is using the src attribute of the img

  So, if you link to your media enclosure file in your blog entries like
  this, then you should probably get a thumbnail preview image in DTV:

  a href=http://my/video.mov;img src=http://my/image.jpg; //a

  This is roughly analogous to the Microformat spec i've been proposing,
  although that would include more semantic things to more fully
  exploit the attributes available in HTML.

Actually, i rather like this.

What this allows me to do is to have :

| a href=videoimg scr=image/a descriptive text |
in my excerpt = description



| flashvideoplayer descriptive text |
in my main body = content:encoded

That sounds rather sweet to me since that provides maximum usability
both for the web and the feed folks.

Re: [videoblogging] TV/radio covering blogs

2006-01-22 Thread Arnþór Snær
I don't usually watch CNN, but caught it one day while they had a
program running called In the blogs... a sign of the times.

The topic of decentralized vs centralized media, especially news, is a
very complicated one with alot of hard questions.

While i like the decentralized media myself, there is always the
questions of echo chambers. I guess the real question is if we want
one big echo chamber (mass media) or increasing number of smaller ones
(rss feeds, social news networks, etc)

It's all getting cyper punk :)

  became places where people discussed what was going on in the

  like Hollywood or the Beltway, people would discuss certain

  as more people turn to the web during their off time, traditional

Hi, i am (thankfully perhaps) not a lawyer, but am interested in media
copyright issues.

Here is a excerpt of the wikipedia article on Fair Use.
A quick look suggests that critising, commenting or reporting on a
thing does allow you to use parts of it (to make a point such as
rocketboom).
I don't think that the profitability of your work matters when
considering weather you can cite fair use of another work.


--begin wikipedia excerpt--

Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use
of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or
phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for
purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching
(including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or
research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether
the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the
factors to be considered shall include—

1. the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is
of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
2. the nature of the copyrighted work;
3. the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to
the copyrighted work as a whole; and
4. the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the
copyrighted work.

The fact that a work is unpublished shall not itself bar a finding of
fair use if such finding is made upon consideration of all the above
factors.[1]

I do strongly advise you slowly move your workflow into a completely
podsafe arena...

I've recently registered as a podcaster with podsafe music network and
used one song in a vlog entry.

Reading the above statement made me wonder what the artists terms on
pmn specify so here is a c/p of
http://music.podshow.com/music/artistTerms.htm :

-begin quote

2 a (the artist grants pmn) ...the right to allow others to reproduce
each Work for the purpose of Broadcasting the Work, including the
right to use and incorporate each Work into a Collective Work, which
may itself be Broadcast

1  Definitions
Broadcast means Work or an acceptable Derivative Work thereof that
is played publicly for the benefit of interested listeners, and
particularly when such Work is played by a listener accessing a
digital file such as a podcast or streaming media file.


Podcast means a specific type of Broadcast, where the Work is
incorporated into a file (which may contain one or more works and/or
other material) which may be streamed, or played on a computer, on an
MP3 player or similar device by individuals who have downloaded such
file.

-end quote


Listener does suggest that the intent is for the music to be used in
an audio recording

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Copyrights and the artist's right to control their work

2006-01-18 Thread Arnþór Snær
Yes i think fair use in the public performance scenario depends on
the usage of the work being to comment on the work (including news 
reviews)  educate on a aspect of the work or on it as a whole.

So, while it may not be okay for me to use the latest top40 single for
my vlog theme song, it would be ok to play a part of it if i was doing
a top40 vlog.

Any grey area scenarios are then judged on these factors. (wikipedia quote)

1)the purpose and character of the use. (why and how i use it)
2)the nature of the copyrighted work (what i am using)
3)the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the
copyrighted work as a whole (% of the work i use and if i take one big
chunk or many small chunks)
4)the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the
copyrighted work. (will people not buy it because of my use of the
work)

I think the above factors are guidelines and if a case goes to court a
judge weighs the individual case against these guidelines.

  Very good post, Richard. Nicely balanced.

  I know you're not a lawyer but can you (or anyone else who wants to
  take a crack at it) tell me if I've got this right?

  Saturday Night Live or The Daily Show can show clips from TV shows
  because they're commending on or parodying the content of those clips.
  So comment or satire makes these copyrighted clips fair game, is that
  right?

  And if SNL and Jon Stewart can do it, can't vloggers do likewise?

Andreas pointed to other posts on the legalities and how he'd
recommend that all videobloggers get educated on how rights
management works. Absolutely. Learn what it is, and what it means for
you.
   
What hasn't been mentioned this time around, is why copyrights exist,
apart from the money.
   
Don't assume that by using a work, you are promoting or advertising
that work. Copyright is not about making money, it is about retaining
control over your work, and having the legal right to make decisions
on where and how your work is used.
   
What one person thinks is a promotion of a work, the original artist
may see as slander, not befitting of the work, or against the
principles of the artist, such as being used in a porn video
podcast for example. This is why copyrights typically require you to
get permission from the owner, although there are limited exceptions
through the fair use provisions of the copyright act, which was
created to allow educational, parody or reference (news reporting for
example) use.
   
Copyrights protect our culture, and they do that by allowing artists
to take control of their work. This also allows them to charge money
for the use of their work, in effect sponsoring them to create even
more work, and subsequently progressing our culture even further.
   
Unfortunately however, the system has become abused [RIAA/MPAA rant
here], but people like Lawrence Lessig and Creative Commons are
trying to fix it. You should also visit their site, and read about
what they're trying to do to protect culture and your rights.
http://creativecommons.org/
   
Rights are good for you. My videoblog works are all Creative Commons,
attribution non-commercial sharealike. I have the right to allow you
to do whetever you like with my stuff, so long as you credit me as
the creator, share your works with the same allowances, and don't
make money off using it. I like having that right.

   Well said, Richard.  Some people were starting to act like anal jerks
   about this topic earlier.  Glad you set us all straight without

Re: [videoblogging] Long and File Size: Revisiting the question

2006-01-16 Thread Arnþór Snær
I don't care that much about the filesize, since my aggregator fetches
the media in the background.

Here is my take on the length issue.

I am a fast forwarder. I fast forward through stuff im not sure on. I
may fast forward through some vlogs, while others will play
uninterrupted.

Here's an example :
For example i may fast forward through some of kitykity videos while i
usually don't with the human dog videos. I pick these two because they
are two vlogs i enjoy, but are different by design and i approach
viewing them differently

(Not to offend Susan, i like her character in the videos, i sometimes
FF through the more family oriented videos.)

My point is that i don't skip, I fast forward and I like having that choice.

So i prefer the vloggers just listen to their audience and that little
vlog-voice in their heads when it comes to length of the videos.

Hope this makes sense to someone.

i regularly download files in the 80-100Mb via fireant, although most

i tend to be less patient in the browser.  if there is a feed, i'll use
that instead if it makes sense.  if not, i'll download it in the
background. i generally multi-task and so rarely care how long the
download takes.  i prefer not to view vids in the browser, i prefer a
sizable player like fireant.
  
in general, i don't really care how big or how long a video is as long
as the content is worth it  (there is a limit of course, I'm not looking
to download gigabyte files just yet).  very few pieces of media can hold
my full attention for 40 minutes anymore (especially movies and TV).
  
i don't generally stop watching when it gets long, i usually just fast
forward.
  
if i do stop, i generally stop watching a video within the first 30
seconds. If it has not captured me by then (or if it's not from a friend
perhaps), I delete it and move on to the next.  again, size is not much
of a factor here.
  
while i constantly find great stuff, most videos fail to capture my
attention these days (this is more of a statement about the increase in
the number of videos, not a decrease in quality - there's just a lot
more stuff out there these days)
  
the main reason for stopping a download: i found something else I want
sooner
  
my download speed is usually in the 512Kb-1Mb range with no other limits
(e.g., total downloads not limited).   while this is not super fast, i
would probably feel different (i.e., more selective) if I had slower
   access.
  
i like streaming for the video conferences, but it does not seem to make
much sense to me for vlogs (from a viewer standpoint, it stops and
starts too much and it's usually hard to fast forward).
  
hope that helps

I find myself revisiting this question every time I post a large file
to my vlog.

How much is too much? At what point will you (personally, yourself, as
a vlog watcher):
1) Stop downloading the file.
2) Stop watching the movie (how many minutes, assuming it's not too
   boring).

Just curious about the answers-- someone recently said they wanted
longer than 10-minute vlogs, because they wanted to really sit down
and watch stuff, but I wonder about that. A 10 minute vlog is 30 MB,
easily. A 40 minute vlog would be almost 100 MB? Is that worth your
time, bandwidth, and download speed? Would it make more sense to
stream instead?
