Re: [videoblogging] Re: vPIP 1.11 Beta (Ogg support share video) available
For the record, I would be opposed to ANY sort of DRM, or any other sort of tech road block for distributing my content. Please Blip.tv don't spend your time and energy making it more difficult for people to get to my content. The problem is, of course, that the DRM makes this assumption that the user is going to try and do something that I don't want them to do, whereas I believe the majority will respect my license, and, in any case, my main goal is to deliver it most efficiently to those people, not to block evil people. On the other hand, if you find anyone using my content inconsistent with ways I specify in my license, and it's relatively serious, than by all means I encourage you to try and stop it. So you're energy goes toward catching someone who has already violated terms. Of course, it may be (though I'm skeptical) that I will thwart more criminals by putting this road block up, but the trade off between screwing up a non-criminal's viewing experience, is not even close to the advantage of blocking illegal use. IMHO ... DRM is a bad strategy all around for stopping illegal/illicit/whatever uses of digital content and I have trouble imagining a case where I would be for it. (Although if anyone reads this whole email, they may very well come up with some example that would prove me wrong). ...

Re: [videoblogging] Re: vPIP 1.11 Beta (Ogg support share video) available
Charles, I don't really want perfect DRM. First, of course, it's hard to imagine it can be done, since the ones who want to violate it are really good at breaking it. But that's not a real argument, of course, since the perfect is hypothetical and, in any case, you are infinitely more expert and knowing what actually would be possible than me. This does have a practical implication, however, in the trade off between how much effort it would take someone, even with your skills, to make this perfect DRM, and how much that would take away time from all the other great things that you do. My deeper objection is philosophical - and really applies more to media that is bought (as opposed to what I mae that is free) - it's like, if I purchase a digital song, or, especially if I buy a physical device, I think my personal property rights are being violated if someone does something to degrade that device to stop some other criminal, who is not me. I'm sure if I spent more time thinking about it, I can imagine scenarios where I wouldn't want this and it's most likely some point on a continuum (there's an interesting analogy to gun ownership, that makes me a little suspicious of my own arguments), but, by and large I lean strongly away from the DRM sort of philosophy. ...

That may have something to do with the FPS reading 48.01, or it may have something to do with watching it in Quicktime player, because it had to load the ogg as if it was translating the file.

Here's note from the developer. You cannot resize the exported Ogg video, but there is a wordaround: you can use it to export Ogg Theora directly from Final Cut, one limitation it still has right now is, that it does not provide options for resize, you can work around that by creating a new Sequence in the dimensions you want and place the Sequence you want to export inside that Sequence doing the scaling in Final Cut. jay -- http://jaydedman.com 917 371 6790

[videoblogging] Re: vPIP 1.11 Beta (Ogg support share video) available
DRM is understandably unpopular, but lets not get too carried away with its implications. DRM mechanisms are already present in many of the formats people use today. It causes no problem at all for unprotected media. Its only a restriction if the content creator/distributor chooses to use it, so the issues it raises will not rear their ugly heads for any vlogger who is against DRM. DRM is probably incompatible with creative commons, but again this only applies if you decide to protect your stuff with DRM, you can still use formats that technically allow DRM, just dont use that feature. Now if it was virtually impossible to download flash files, then CC would be against the use of flash, as this is denying users rights to download and redistribute content, which is a central right in creative commons. What that BBC story was refering to the fact that Adobe announced a desktop player app that would make downloading flash video even easier, but to stop their customers who are not progressive, and believe in tight control, from totally going nuts, they've given them the option to use DRM to restrict things for the users. Again this will only affect content where DRM is being used. This stuff is all about business, and the old-fashioned ways of monetizing creative works, by attempting to levy a charge on their distribution. Vlogging is generally against that, and so DRM is largely irrelevant, a future nightmare scenerio where all content is locked down with DRM, seems highly unlikely as nobody cares about protecting all content, just content that wants to be protected. I know there was that case where Sony (I think) persued an over the top DRM strategy that backfired when they used a system that sucked and caused potential security breech to users who had the stuff installed, and perhaps this has confused the issue somewhat. Anyway Sony others probably learnt a painful lesson from that, and these days whilst DRM is far from dead, some have become more progressive about these issues, whilst others are at least balancing their appetite for control with the potential losses from using technology that sucks so bad it costs them customers. Its all about money, after all, and if protecting your content isnt part of the economy, nobody cares about forcing DRM on your stuff, DRM will not make your future hell. That is unless vloggers decide they actually want a bit more of DRM and the old ways of control. If the arse falls off the immature video advertising market, or people run out of other options, some people who make shows with an aim to make some proper dosh, might start looking at the old systems of controlled distribution and decide they want a piece of that action. I dont see many signs of this, although lots of people on this list have often been very hostile when others are rehosting their content, it seems to have been deemed as at the very least bad etiquette, and thus I occasionally waffle about how this competely contradicts creative commons principals, oh well. I suppose in the future, depending on how various 'new media networks' evolve, some vlogers may do deals where one of these networks becomes their publisher but they have a DRM policy or something else that places limits on redistribution of your show by others. I hate DRM and I hope the concept is gradually abandoned, but its just not any sort of threat or worry for vloggers, indeed it continues to give a real advantage to independent content, unburdened by it compared to shows that are on a DRM-loving network. There are musicians out there who would like to do stuff with their back-catalog but their publisher has a lot of say in that stuff and so they get thwarted if their publisher isnt progressive. Its darn frustrating for them, and the lesson is to read smallprint and consider wider implications before doing deals.
