[videoblogging] Mark Day: Grumpy, hilarious, Scottish YouTube star next on the Par-tay
Some of you might have met Mark at Pixelodeon. He's a very prolific (109 videos in the last year) and funny videoblogger. He's had a lot of success on YouTube where he's the 66th most subscribed to creator ever. Fling a handful of pop culture, politics, scotch, and smoked pork into a blender and take a deep drink. That's what watching one of his vids is like. I'm especially interested in his take on the complex world of YouTube, and what it's been like to become one of the select group of Content Partners there. Come Par-tay with me and Mark, this Weds at 9PM Eastern. http://tinyurl.com/ywml8t

I've used uStream and it worked well. I have also done Quicktime Server w/Quicktime Broadcaster, which was a breeze as well. I tried uStream for streaming video into SecondLife (for the main BlogHer sessions this year) and the company we were using for our build in SL could only accept Quicktime files (not sure if that's a SL thing or just per this company), but QT Server/Broadcaster was perfect. uStream has not let me down either, so I could easily recommend either of these.

I'm not sure if you can view the stream in vlc though - I think it's just the slingbox player. but if you're getting people to download vlc, then getting them to d/l slingbox player is similar?

[videoblogging] Still Can't Get Windows Movie Working
Hi everyone: I've tried searching for *.wmv (Of which I have many on my HD) and (As someone on rec.video.desktop suggested) *.col (For Windows Movie Maker COLLECTION files) and even the title of the show itself (The Pat Cook Show Episode 05 AMATEUR RADIO SPECIAL). Found nothing. I used the Windows search program in STARTSEARCH. I'm about to use third party search utilities that might reveal more and allow me to do more than what the utility that came with Windows will BUT if anyone can think of other file extentions I might try in order to narrow the search, that'd be appreciated. :D Many thanks in advance :D Cheers :D -- Pat Cook Denver, Colorado PODCASTS - **NEW VLOG** AS MY WORLD TURNS - http://asmyworldturnstv.blogspot.com/ PAT'S REAL DEAL VIDEO BLOG - http://patsrealdeal.livejournal.com/ PAT'S HEALTH MEDICAL WONDERS VIDEOCAST - http://patshealthmedicalwondersvideocast.blogspot.com/ YOUTUBE CHANNEL - http://www.youtube.com/amwowttv/ THE PAT COOK SHOW - http://www.livevideo.com/thepcshow THE PAT COOK SHOW (Video Podcst) - http://thepctvshow.blogspot.com/ THE PAT COOK SHOW (Audio Podcast) - http://thepcradioshow.blogspot.com/
