[videoblogging] Did you hear about MyspaceTV's new upgrades?
I heard through the grapevine that myspace is going to have:(I think starting tomorrow) 1. Direct webcam upload to MyspaceTV, that you can use it for bulletins, comments, blogs, and more. 2. They got rid of the time length restriction for the videos. So the time the # of videos uploaded is unlimited. But with the new maxium for video files are 512MB. So that is awesome the new max for video files are 512MB and you can integrate videos to comments, bulletins, and etc... What do you think?

[videoblogging] Re: I'm Paul from MySpaceTV
Hey everyone. I'm the Nick Schmidt that Paul mentioned in the post. I have an awesome scar, yes... I have talked to Paul a little bit about using MySpaceTv. Just last night, I probably deleted about 25 people from the vlogger group because they deleted their account on MySpace. I think the main problem that everyone will have to deal with is changing the brand image of MySpace.com. MySpace has turned into more of a spammy social network and I think a lot of people are switching over to facebook. Harsh? no... Just keeping it real. I just think that is what people perceive MySpace now. Me? Well I use both..I think a majority of us use both. I think offline events would be awesome! I think that would be one of the 1st steps in changing the brand image. I'm not talking about parties in a club where you can't talk to anyone. I'm talking about place where you can actually start relationships with people and communicate. You can see them face to face. Not just some profile pic from MySpace. Kind of like tech cocktail, tweetups, or something like that. what do you think? Nick Schmidt www.schmult.com www.schmult.tumblr.com www.twitter.com/schmult

I just thought since everyone is talking on this post I should too. Just for fun. I don't understand why everyone is a little mad about the whole Vloggies thing. It is a little shady if they did get the trademark name that Irina made up and worked so hard on The Vloggies. But if they have the rights to it, just like before, ( i think Kent said something) the awards shows will be handled just like the history of the emmy's other popular award shows. So if they say they are going to handle it like that, I mean what can we do? Nothing, except like a protest.That is kind of what it sounds like Verdi mentioned in previous e mails.

Ok, so reliable sources seem to say that vlogs are blogs with video. Let's take the dispute over the definition. Though the dispute may seem notable to you, me and other videobloggers in the group, Wikipedia has a policy on what is considered notable. Until a reliable source talks about the dispute, we have to assume that the general public doesn't know about it or care about it and that the dispute is, consequently, unencyclopedic. Until a reliable sources uses a different definition, the old definition is all we can use in the encyclopedia article. I think that's the issue here. People usually think that because Wikipedia is online, you can make an article about anything. What people may not realize is that wikipedia really strives to have encyclopedic content and hundreds of articles and contributions are deleted everyday. Many more than are actually kept. I had my first article deleted. I didn't agree with it at first but I came to realize that Cooking Kitty Corner wasn't exactly a notable video blog. :P I also started getting into Wikipedia a lot more and it's definitely a hobby of mine now. So should reliable sources be defined differently? Maybe. There's discussions all the time on Wikipedia policies. but as it is, we have to go with the current consensus on what is a reliable source.

Then in Google reader you will be able to see the video just as if it was on the website. You don't have to download anything like fireant, it just a straight up flash video.Here is a screenshot of what it looks like: I thought Flash video can NOT be displayed in the RSS feed with a RSS reader? Is this true? Does anyone happen to know what RSS readers work for the Blip.tv flash? Or any Flash video that works with any RSS reader? Or is this just something Google fixed when they acquired Youtube.com? Meaning they are the 1st to do this... Blip doesn't work with google reader and that actually flash video doesn't really work with many aggregator/reader. I know about fireant works. I also spoke to some people at feedburner to see if it is something are their side... Nope.. It is all based on the RSS reader in order for the flash video to work. My assumption is that after Google acquired Youtube.com they developed a way to see embeded video in an RSS feed reader (Google Reader) Let me know, Nick Schmidt naschmult at gmail dot com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
[videoblogging] Copyrights Laws for using Music in Video
Does anyone know anything about the law about using popular bands music in your videos? Do you have to source the band and titled of the song? What does the RIAA think about it? What do we have to do to make it legit? or can we? Nick Schmidt
[videoblogging] Re: Copyrights Laws for using Music in Video
It looks from previous posts on this. Legally we should pay the bands/company for using their music in our videos.

[videoblogging] Re: Final Cut Pro Users
thanks for the submitting that information steve. Anyone else have any specs settings to your compression? I don't have any right now because I just got FCP I'm trying to learn more about it. I will poste my adobe premiere pro settings when I get on my PC later today. Nick

[videoblogging] Final Cut Pro Users
for some reason my 1st one didn't post right... so..let's try again. What are the detail of your setting for the video codecs, frame rate, audio codecs... ?? Everything.. Do you use the export with the compressor or Using Quicktime Conversion? To get more of the details of everything I'm talking about Ryan did an awesome video tutorial for compressing for ipods, in case you don't already know. here check http://www.freevlog.org/index.php/2006/12/13/screencast-h264-ipod-compression-from-imovie-and-final-cut-pro/ So after you see this video and post your reply I think this post will be a good reference for the newbies, you, and myself.. So I'm interested in to hear what you have to say.. Nick www.schmult.com

SWEET.. I was on fox news a while go too.. but was like 2 secs.. wert wert nick --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, stacyherbert [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have been reading the thousands of messages about Amanda Congdon on ABC, so I thought maybe people would be interested in knowing that video blogger and podcaster, Max Keiser of KarmabanqueRadio.com, has made a film for international broadcaster, Al Jazeera English (AJE). Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbPetrK_6Lc (It's not the best quality video someone put up on YouTube and, if I could put up a better quality one I would . . . ) The interesting thing I think for the video blogging community is that Max first came to the attention of AJE indirectly through his videoblogging and podcasting work. They had read an article about our work. And, though they are an international broadcaster, we didn't have to alter our style of working or compromise the content of our message in any manner from what we do in our video blogging. Anyway, there are many more films for AJE coming soon from us . . . ! - Stacy, Karmabanque Radio
