[videoblogging] Help!! need some help with drupal and dreamhost

2009-03-18 Thread Milt Lee
Hi folks - does anybody here use Dreamhost, AND have a drupal site there?

I really need some help with an issue I'm having. Dreamhost has limit of 7mb 
for uploads.  I find this strange since if you have a wordpress blog on 
dreamhost, you can upload any size that you want, but it's probably because I'm 
not a coder, so it's all Greek to me.

Anyway - has anybody here gone through the process of changing the max-upload?  
And yes, I have read all the stuff on the forum (there's a page that explains 
it all) but I'm just not a coder.

Thanks everybody!  I really appreciate it.
Milt



[videoblogging] VIDEOFORMES09 – Beauty and Truth

2009-03-18 Thread Robert Croma
A huge shout of congratulations and gratitude to videobloggers and festival 
gurus, Loiez Deniel and Gabriel Soucheyre and everyone else involved in the 
organization of this year's VIDEOFORMES in Clermont-Ferrand. A truly remarkable 
experience and an amazing and rich diversity of video art from a brilliant 
collection of video artists from around the globe. Tremendously inspiring to 
witness.

VIDEOFORMES continues to be one of the world's premier video arts festivals, 
due in no small measure to the passionate commitment, creative integrity and 
voluminous energy of its artistic director, Garbriel Soucheyre,

In a time of insidious cutbacks in the arts and pervasive economic uncertainty, 
it's magnificent to see the continuing promotion of experimental video in an 
open atmosphere of inclusiveness and possibility. Such an environment is a 
beautiful and necessary canvas upon which to daub the many creative 
manifestations of this strange and wondrous form called video.  

So hats off to VIDEOFORMES. Long may you live.

Milt,

I was going to get back to you anyway about the nice things you wrote about 
http://PinePlainsViews.com and then got behind because of some DSL and modem 
issues that afflict my rural usage.  But first, to Dreamhost and uploading.

I regularly upload way in excess of 7mB on DreamHost as you can tell by my 
videos, some of which are rather long.  I have never run into any kind of 
problem that required coding. Ever.  I use Joomla and use an ftp client, 
Transmit, on the Mac.  What machine do you use and which ftp client? 

It is now 3 years that I have been using Dreamhost for my videos.  Did you send 
in a ticket to support?  They are usually helpful.  

Let me know how you make out.  I love what you have been doing and feel it is 
very important, too.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: breakthrough for open video on the web

2009-03-18 Thread Jay dedman
 This all got me curious enough to download FF 3.1. First, I liked the
 simplicity of the Transparency Camp website and the organization of the
 videos.
 But I had problems with buffering/stuttering even though I was on a high
 speed DSL at over 1 mBs. I could not hold sync. Does the player put a load
 on the computer? I am using a Mac on 10.4 with a DP 1 gig G4 machine.
Flash
 and Quicktime play fine on the same system.

welcome to the bleeding edge. Currently, the video tag is handled like an
image tag. This is great in one sense because of its simplicity. But this
also means that all videos are downloaded immediately on loading the
page...just like images.

There is pretty intense debate right now how this should be handled. Should
it be a user choice that he enables on his browser that would not download
all videos?

Again, I encourage people to come to the confernece in NYC this June:
http://openvideoconference.org/2009/03/mozilla-to-present-firefox-35-at-open-video/
Mozilla will be releasing 3.5...and all these conversations can be had.

 Other questions. What is the advantage of Ogg for us content creators who
 are not large enough by any means to have to worry about licensing fees?
I'm
 all for open system software, but H.264 and FLASH are pretty close with a
 modest purchase cost. I liked how simple the code was, but is that just
the
 new HTML 5 in FF or Ogg?

Well, having an open codec is kind of the foundation need for everything
else in video.
Below is the current reasoning.

Jay
__

*Why is Open Video Important?*

YouTube and other online video applications are rightly celebrated for
empowering end-users; however, online video lacks some of the essential
qualities that make text and images on the web such powerful tools for free
speech and technical innovation. Email, blogs, and other staples of the open
web rely on ubiquitous and interoperable technologies that have low barriers
to entry; they are massively decentralized and resistant to censorship or
regulation. Video, meanwhile, relies on centralized distribution and
proprietary technologies which can threaten cultural discourse and
innovation.

Open Video is the growing movement for transparency, interoperability, and
participation in online video. These qualities provide more fertile ground
for bottom-up innovation and greater protection for free speech online. Many
organizations are already taking steps to change the nature of video on the
web: Mozilla is moving to support open video formats in Firefox, the
Participatory Culture Foundation promotes open source and standards in video
publishing and distribution, and Wikipedia has increased its focus on the
open Theora codec.

Yet Open Video is more than just having a functional open source video
codec. It’s all the legal and social norms surrounding online video. It’s
the ability to attach the license of your choice to videos you publish. It’s
about media consolidation, aggregation, and decentralization. It’s about
fair use. In short, it covers the new media gamut—and that’s why this
conference is guaranteed to be very stimulating.

[videoblogging] ActiveMovie Embedded MPG Object Test Page

2009-03-18 Thread choco scamter
My Ulead Video Studio 8 created a page for me called ActiveMovie Embedded MPG 
Object Test Page, and except the picture is a bit larger than I need (easy to 
modify) can anyone tell me if I use this code in an HTML page, is it easy to be 
seen by the masses?

I desire to host the video on my server and use it in a webpage. 

My Windows XP  IE 7.x warn me that it is dangerous to open active-x 
materials, and if everyone else has the same warning maybe they won't watch the 
video. Any comments are appreciated.

just because the video loads on page load doesnt mean it has to.
their are ways to build a web page that more intuitively deal with what is
presented/downloaded.
the video tag can still be used effectively.  i dont think it should be
much of an intense debate.
leave the creative/proper uses to the web developer.

just to contrast this video tag with the most revognized effort to
standardize flash embedding
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/

two very different approaches, both looking to be a standard.

2009-03-18 Thread Adrian Miles
absolutely, it is a disaster otherwise. imagine a page where you want  
several videos, they will all download, i only want one, why should I  
pay (bandwidth *does* cost) for 5 when I only want ot see one, let  
alone the impact this has on my cache, computer, home network, other  
users, viewing stats, etc.

one solution would be image that links to page with video that it just  
excludes interesting possibilities with multiple videos, unless I'm  
missing something.

the argument I would use is simply sustainability, why serve a pile of  
video that is unwanted? bandwidth waste is waste none the less.
