[videoblogging] Re: iTunes Channel Image
I don't know what happened to mine. I have 3 feeds for the different media types. M4v, H264 and MP4. I submitted them to the store separately, some took 2 days some took a week. Eventually all images were up. They all refer to one image. Now however my main h264 feed appears as a broken link. Can you guys help me figure out what happened.

RE: [videoblogging] RSS for a non-blog page
I'm trying to build a feed for a page that is not a blog - its a static HTML page, but every now and then I want to add a video to it. Its this page here. http://www.eyesteelfilm.com/channel.html I've tried to use RSS tools like RSS Writer, but I find them a bit hard to understand. For example, in RSS Writer - its asking me for items. What does this mean? I've tried another called Feeder - same deal. Are the items basically the movies I want to be downloaded from the feed? So each time I add a movie, I have to manually edit the feed? The items are the individual content postings in the RSS feed. Each time you have a new item (in your case this might be a movie and a brief description of the movie) you would need to create a new item for your movie. So yes, you do need to manually update your feed with each new item, just like you manually update channel.html each time you add something to the page. I went through a tutorial on this for FeedForAll related to podcasts, but the premise is the same for video blogs: http://www.jakeludington.com/ask_jake/20051023_podcasting_from_iis_server.ht ml If that link breaks use this: http://tinyurl.com/c25f7 Jake Ludington http://www.mediablab.com http://www.podcastingstarterkit.com Yahoo!

[videoblogging] Re: Software to generate XML text file: 4-STEP ARCHIVE SOLUTION FOUND!
Weagel/Andreas not quite. SANDY FOUND AN EASY ARCHIVE SOLUTION! 4 Steps nonetheless! Chris and Andreas, The following URL is NOT an RSS feed: http://www.human-dog.com/lab/?page_id=165 It's a webpage where you have to sit and manually download each video. It's a nice way to see an archive, but not quite what I was asking. I was looking for an automatic way to download all of these videos with an aggregator, and Marcus Sandy has actually found a simple solution that I describe below. But FYI: There is no RSS feed on this page, and no way to plug a URL into either iTunes and FireANT and do a direct download of all of these videos. And the page you've put together doesn't work with the method I describe below to get this XML feed URL, but I think you can fix it with the changes I propose at the end of this message. HOW TO GENERATE AN XML FEED FOR A MONTH'S WORTH OF ARCHIVES IN FOUR EASY STEPS! Now I think Marcus Sandy has actually figured out a potential easy solution to how to plug in one URL into webjay.com and have a way to generate an XML URL that can be used in iTunes or the Windows version of FireANT to download a month's worth of archives. Try plugging these two XML urls into iTunes or the Windows version of FireANT: http://webjay.org/podcast/xml/playthispage/apperceptions3aoctober2005 http://webjay.org/by/playthispage/ryanne5c27svideoblog2823229.xml It works! AWESOME! Now Marcus, I've been able to successfully duplicate what you've done, and it's really quite simple. STEP 1 Copy the URL from one of your monthly archive links from either typepad or blogger such as the following: http://apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2005/10/index.html (Typepad) http://ryanedit.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_ryanedit_archive.html (Blogger) STEP 2 Replace : with %3A so that the URL look like: http%3A//apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2005/10/index.html http%3A//ryanedit.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_ryanedit_archive.html STEP 3 Add http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=; to the begging of the URL http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=http%3A//apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2005/10/index.html http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=http%3A//ryanedit.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_ryanedit_archive.html STEP 4 Browse to the URL, right click on Podcast RSS and copy the XML Feed from named Podcast RSS Or click on Podcast RSS button and highlight the URL following: Copy this link into your reader: FOR http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=http%3A//apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2005/10/index.html Podcast RSS = http://webjay.org/by/playthispage/apperceptions3aoctober2005.xml FOR http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=http%3A//ryanedit.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_ryanedit_archive.html Podcast RSS = http://webjay.org/by/playthispage/ryanne5c27svideoblog2823229.xml Now I can plug this Webjay-generated XML Podcast RSS feed into iTunes or the Windows version of FireANT and BAM! -- you can now download a month's worth of archives. Brilliant. Thank you so much Marcus! QUESTION: Anyone want to take up making archive download download this month buttons that integrating these archive feeds into their site? Other people should also try creating XML feeds for each month of their archive and do some testing in iTunes / Windows version of FireANT -- there's bound to be other gotchas that will need to be ironed out and explained in Freevlog. See, I knew there had to be a simple solution. Now for Josh Kinberg and the FireANT team: I'd *really love* for the Mac version to be able to download more than the first two videos in a feed. The windows version can do it, but not the Mac. It'd be great to be able to use these webjay-generated archive feeds to download a whole month's worth of videos on my Mac. Hopefully this can get on your radar screen if it isn't already. :) And Josh, the atom spec may indeed support this as well, but I was waiting for a much simpler solution like this that didn't depend on a wider adoption for atom. QUESTION Anyone want to take up pushing to get this archive RSS feed built into blogspot or typepad? Or someone to code up a Wordpress plug-in? Any other blog platforms / developers listening who want to provide a simpler solutions than these 4-steps, and one that can also send the text of the blog entries to the windows version of FireANT? Webjay has shown that it's possible and simple. Finally, Chris Weagel: The pages you generated and provided do not provide a valid XML file using the 4-Step Webjay Archiving Method. It gives the error: The web page at http://www.human-dog.com/lab/?page_id=165 has no music links that Webjay can find. That's because the HTML is only pointing to the URL and not directly to the media file: For example, you point to http://www.human-dog.com/lab/?p=63 When you should really have a direct link to the media in the code: a href=http://www.human-dog.com/lab/HDvidblogs04/011305.mov; Try adding links to the media files in these pages, and go through the 4

STEP 1 Take an archive URL from either typepad or blogger like http://apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2005/10/index.html http://ryanedit.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_ryanedit_archive.html STEP 2 Replace : with %3A so that the URLs look like: http%3A//apperceive.blogs.com/apperceive/2005/10/index.html http%3A//ryanedit.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_ryanedit_archive.html STEP 3 Add http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=; to the begging of the URLS STEP 4 Browse to the URL, right click on Podcast RSS and copy the XML Feed from named Podcast RSS Or click on Podcast RSS button and highlight the URL following: Copy this link into your reader: FOR http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=http%3A//apperceive.blogs.com/ apperceive/2005/10/index.html Podcast RSS = http://webjay.org/by/playthispage/apperceptions3aoctober2005.xml FOR http://webjay.org/playthispage?url=http%3A//ryanedit.blogspot.com/ 2005_05_01_ryanedit_archive.html Podcast RSS = http://webjay.org/by/playthispage/ryanne5c27svideoblog2823229.xml Now I can plug this XML Podcast RSS feed that webjay generates into iTunes or the Windows version of FireANT and BAM! -- you can now download a month's worth of archives. Brilliant. Thank you so much Marcus! See, I knew there had to be a simple solution to this. Now for Josh Kinberg and the FireANT team: I'd *really love* for the Mac version to be able to download more than the first two videos in a feed. The windows version can do it, but not the Mac. It'd be great to be able to use these webjay-generated archive feeds to download a whole month's worth of videos on my Mac. Hopefully this can get on your radar screen if it isn't already. :) And Josh, the atom spec may indeed support this as well, but I was waiting for a much simpler solution like this that didn't depend on a wider adoption for atom.

[videoblogging] looks like microslush is going to be mucking with rss
Here in Windows, we're working hard on Windows Vista Beta 2, and we've recently been doing some work on how we parse feeds. Our years of experience in with HTML in Internet Explorer have taught us the long-term pain that results from being too liberal with what you accept from others. Hence, we've adopted the following overriding principle for IE 7 and RSS platform in Windows Vista: We will only support feeds that are well-formed XML. This principle allows us to build a more predictable feed parser. As a platform, it's important that applications using the platform to consume feeds can rely on the fact that the platform will always be providing information in the way that the publisher intended (trying to guess what a publisher meant to do when there is an error in a feed can be tricky, at best). We also spoke to several people in the RSS and developer community at Gnomedex and at PDC, and they wholeheartedly supported this. When viewing a feed that doesn't validate as correct XML, IE7 will flag it (and highlight the error, just like we do today for generically bad XML feeds so feed publishers can see what's going on). When the platform downloads a feed with errors during regular updates, it will discard that update, and will try again at the next scheduled download (so feeds with temporary errors won't be permanently affected). That said, we do recognize that there is a great deal of variance in the actual content of RSS feeds, so we'll be more liberal when it comes to what elements are required in a feed. We will post on exactly how we're handling different feeds in a future post. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get Bzzzy! (real tools to help you find a job).

[videoblogging] Re: Commenting and the Semi-Connected web
Andreas, I'm glad you took my post in the spirit with which it was intended ;-) Since my name is mentioned I should say something, huh. :o) I was hoping you would! After I pressed submit, I noticed my tone was a little aggressive, but I can't take it back, just move forward. I was calling you out based on the difficulty with which people are able to comment on your blog (not the number of trackbacks you have). A commenter must already have their own blog, which I think is not realistic for the next few years for most people. You may have chosen intentionally to only accept comments (as trackbacks) only from those that have advanced enough to have their own blog AND post with tools that handle trackbacks for them (and I don't know which tools or online services that is, even). My implicit proposal was that if you want comments, 1) avoid requiring the commenter to have a blog (which means avoid trackbacks as the ONLY means of commenting), 2) avoid requiring the commenter to visit a web page interactively, 3) My kind of snarky answer to you is: Why should I care about PDA users? I mean, you're trying to fir in online actions to an offline device. Shouldn't it be your problem to work out, and not mine? :o) As far as being my problem to work out for PDA users, I agree to the extent that I can work within the specifications as implemented. With respect to fitting online actions to an offline device: my main point is that if the specifications are such that they CAN accommodate offline devices, then maybe we should all work toward allowing such devices to participate. And partly my slant is a result of my belief that we will be (potentially slowly) moving away from the desktop computer toward mobile devices and living room viewers. After all, a huge reason this all exists is a result of RSS Feeds, which are VERY convenient on mobile devices. Let's go ahead and make the whole process of publishing and interacting convenient on mobile devices. Who wants to be chained to their desktop to interact? All you with 23 widescreen Macs can put your hands down now ;-). One way to get something like the comments element to work is to locally allow your user to write his comment. Save these associated with the comments data (or the link or guid or 15 other ways of designating a permalink in RSS 2.0). When a connection is available pulls up the comments page and have the comments text saved in a clipboard like function. The user can then insert his comment (and name, url, email - all saved in a setting somewhere) and click the submit button. Actually, the permaLink is only on the GUID, and it is not required. And the LINK element can be any HTML link. I've actually seen the LINK element be the HTML blog page (which may or may not have a comments FORM or may or may not have a link called Comment), the LINK element be another HTML page (when the blog was commenting on that other page), and the LINK element be the RSS feed (in the case of a Top 10 RSS feed list. The problem is that none of this is specified or standardized. And may not have to be, if we can all use the wfw:comment which IS standardized as a URL that accepts a HTTP POST of a specific format. It seems like the server developers could make it much easier to enable commenting from an aggregator by implementing the CommentsAPI. That's what it is for! We shouldn't have to parse the (nonstandard) fields on an online form (in addition to requiring us to PRECACHE that form on every feed so we know what fields are necessary, on the CHANCE that the user might want to comment while offline...a LOT of extra work and processing that will be wasted most of the time). Of course by the time the guy is online again his comments will already be obsolete because someone else commented the exact same point while he was messing around with his PDA. :o) Only because he enjoys it ;-) Plus duplicate comments are not always bad. Sometimes it's nice to know that several people have the same thought (like nice video, Andreas!). Thank you for engaging me in this discussion. I'd love to hear your further thoughts on this!

I get a nice warm fuzzy felling from services like MeFeedia, BlipTV, and application-based aggrigators like FireAnt, and iTunes because they say the video is from (and link back to) DavidMeade.com. Some even (like MeFeedia) direct the viewer to my site should they want to leave comments. Yes.. I've always felt it was wrong to take comments away from the blog itself.. I'd rather actively point people to your blog, since that's where it all happens.. Peter -- http://mefeedia.com (new version next week!) Yahoo!

That's why it's a good idea to have your url in you video somewhere? I put mine at the end. On 11/4/05, Lynn Lane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Here's my issue. They take my videos and place them on their site without giving any credit to the authors. They provide no links to the original content. Their original content link goes back to their own site. There is another link that is broken that I guess could take you to the author's site, but it doesn't. When you click on your video it takes you to a page that has your video as well as code to place the video on the viewers site if they so wish, only it doesn't link to the author's original site (where credit is given to the creator of said video) but to blogtelevision's page that has your video on it. It is a shady practice and wreaks of thievery in my opinion.

Are you under the impression that they're making copies, Lynn? These guys are about the same as the old i638 (or whatever they were) people, meaning unappetizing operators hanging around right smack on an ethical line, where they naturally dip over onto the wrong side. Given that they aren't doing much that a more ethical crew wouldn't also do, can you be precise about what the problem is, so that other videoblog aggregators can avoid making you feel badly treated?

Our years of experience in with HTML in Internet Explorer have taught us the long-term pain that results from being too liberal with what you accept from others. Hence, we've adopted the following overriding principle for IE 7 and RSS platform in Windows Vista: We will only support feeds that are well-formed XML. This principle allows us to build a more predictable feed parser. As a platform, it's important that applications using the platform to consume feeds can rely on the fact that the platform will always be providing information in the way that the publisher intended (trying to guess what a publisher meant to do when there is an error in a feed can be tricky, at best). We also spoke to several people in the RSS and developer community at Gnomedex and at PDC, and they wholeheartedly supported this. When viewing a feed that doesn't validate as correct XML, IE7 will flag it (and highlight the error, just like we do today for generically bad XML feeds so feed publishers can see what's going on). When the platform downloads a feed with errors during regular updates, it will discard that update, and will try again at the next scheduled download (so feeds with temporary errors won't be permanently affected). That said, we do recognize that there is a great deal of variance in the actual content of RSS feeds, so we'll be more liberal when it comes to what elements are required in a feed. We will post on exactly how we're handling different feeds in a future post. Not really, Microsoft has usually tried to adhere to a standard. They've done that in IE with returning errors on badly formed HTML. And it makes sense they'll be strict where the RSS spec. is clearly defined. -- Enric Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get Bzzzy!

Re: [videoblogging] What do you guys think about Blogtelevision.net
If a site relies on traffic to it's pages for revenue, then this could be shown to be criminal. They also have it backwards. We should not have to opt out of their aggregation, but rather opt in to it. I don't like it either. Their opt-out page seems broken.On 11/4/05, Lynn Lane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I notice that blogtelevision.net is taking all of the videos that I put up and placing them on their site. They don't give me credit or anything for my work. Do any of you have any feelings towards this site or that issue regarding the usage of your work. They also place a link to the video so that other people can put it on their site but they take the credit for it. Kind of irks me to tell the truth.
