[videoblogging] Re: [video_vertigo] iPhone
Either way, I'm sure some enterprising young hacker will find a way to install apps onto it. If it syncs with iTunes, then at the very least RSS is available to it (via sync). I'm going to assume QuickTime is implemented at some level, too. Plus, if Safari is full-featured, then that opens Javascript-QuickTime communication. Is Flash there? Not sure. If not, it may be Apple's way to stem the tide. I guess the ultimate question will be how bare-bones the OSX install is, and how much control you can have.

[videoblogging] iHD [was: Re: Are You Recommending HD Cameras Yet?]
Are you referring to ihd.org? If so, I visited the site and there's really a lack of information. For example, it's a standards organization with members from Media, Advertising, and Technology. Who? There are no names attached. Also, the iHD spec is: -Shot in HD -Edited in HD -Aspect ratio: 16:9 -Video Bitrate: 2048 kbps -Audio Bitrate: 192 kbps -Framesize: 1280 x 720 progressive (non-interlaced) -Formats: WMV, MP4 Just starting with Shot in HD doesn't provide a lot of technical details. What basic bitrate qualifies? What about color space? Or is it just dependent on resolution? Do framerates matter? Also, why limit to WMV and MP4? If I can deliver audio-visual data that adheres to the rest of the spec, why can't I claim it to be iHD? Especially for an open standard? I would expect some type of embrace of Ogg. Or is this an attempt to crush Flash/On2 VP6? Don't get me wrong, as I'm 100% for HD delivery via IP networks. On a side note, I'm writing a blog post about why I think (broadcast) HD is going to rot on the vine. -- joshpaul On Dec 25, 2006, at 1:13 AM, videoblogging@yahoogroups.com wrote: Posted by: andrew michael baron [EMAIL PROTECTED] hamletphase Date: Sun Dec 24, 2006 2:09 pm ((PST)) On iHD and high bit rate files: One of the things that helped popularize Rocketboom initially was that I was one of the first to regularly distribute video content with enclosures. At the time, the audience (audio podcasters) was growing a great rate, but there was almost no video content to d/l. This was a first to market advantage for those of us that implemented the specs. I see the same thing occurring now for iHD. Maybe it wont take off in the same way, maybe it will do nothing for those that adopt such a file for distribution, though I believe there is a great chance that it will, if people also respond to the content. Have you met anyone with an HD TV? They often become obsessed and fanatical about the quality. Its as if they put on glasses for the first time in their lives and then become disappointed at anything less. Our daily Rocketboom files are under 100mb and most people can play them right from the browser. Also, while 640x480 is also a good way to up the ante on your files for the upcoming iTV onslaught, iHD files can be in .mov format too, and thus look great on bigger screens of any kind, HD or not.

[videoblogging] Re: Are You Recommending HD Cameras Yet?
Are you still watching videoblogs? Does it really matter that Galacticast (or, insert favorite vlog here) isn't HD? I completely agree that HD is beautiful, but I have yet to experience it at home day in and day out. But in the end, I personally am more interested in the content. I've heard some people say they could watch paint dry in HD. To which I say, go for it. I'm still pretty close to the tv industry - I own a software company that caters to it - and most of the projects are just now migrating to HD...and they're not shooting 1080p. We've had a difficult enough time trying to figure out production workflows with 720p and 1080i. I'm not sure how long it'll take to figure out and adopt 1080p. What I'm interested in is what happens in the next 3 years. The new thing being pitched is 1080p. The problem is, who's broadcasting it? Will all the networks agree to it as the standard? Some are using 720p, others 1080i. If they do agree, how long will it take them to switch? Finally, how does all of this play out with RSS as a challenger for a delivery mechanism? Negroponte (Meiser, thanks for the lead) refers to HD as 'stillborn' in being digital, URL: http://www.amazon.com/Being-Digital-Vintage- Nicholas-Negroponte/dp/0679762906 because of the speed of the television industry vs. the speed of the computer industry. He also discusses about an experiment by Russ Neuman where people viewed the same video, on the same equipment, where the only difference was the quality of the audio. His discovery? That the better audio changed people's perception that they were viewing a higher quality image. Personally, I've decided to keep my money in the bank until it all plays out. On a side note, I helped to produce a HD pilot for a major tv network in 2000 (it didn't get picked up). I remember how we marveled at the fact we could see raindrops on the windshield of a car, and could actually read the numbers on a police officer's badge. This is back when we were learning about producing using the new format, and found out about such issues as audio noise related to fans in the camera turning on after a certain period of time to help cool the CCDs.

If the aggregator can ascertain the context from the blog post (and possibly the related tags in a directory like MeFeedia or FireAnt), then it can use that context to determine the type of video. It could then filter the videos appropriately. Right now I have 373 unwatched videos in FireAnt. If it had a way to learn what I like, it could then bubble up the videos I want to watch.

[videoblogging] Re: I've been vlogging in the dark, looking for the answers
You don't necessarily need a new camera. You can accomplish it by lighting using IR. Here's an excerpt from Digital Video Hacks: ...The other trick is to add more light. While this might seem illogical, there are types of light that your camcorder can see but that you (or your subjects) can't. Specifically, your camcorder can see infrared (IR) light, which is invisible to the human eye... To see what I mean, try this: take a remote control, point the end of the remote toward your eye, and press a button. You won't see anything, because your eyes can't see the IR light emitted by the remote. Now try the same thing, but pointing the end of the remote at your camcorder lens. On your camcorder screen, you'll see a brief flash of light from the end of the remote, because the camcorder can see the IR light. And this is what you can use to capture video in situations where there isn't enough light to record normal video: by using IR light, you can illuminate the subject without annoying or distracting it. You can read the entire hack at: http://reviews.cnet.com/ 4520-11237-6323933-3.html?tag=viddet And a link to the book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0596009461/103-7168833-2867817 (yes, shameless plug...again) HTH, Josh On Jan 7, 2006, at 7:18 AM, videoblogging@yahoogroups.com wrote: Date: Sat, 07 Jan 2006 02:13:42 - From: jaguarfan888 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: I've been vlogging in the dark, looking for the answers Does anyone know of any cheap camcorders that can record really well in low light?

Sometimes the most creative stuff comes from kids and the way they look at the world. You know, before the reality of it all crushes their spirit and makes them just another cog in the corporate machine that is today's society.

Re: [videoblogging] Videoblogging book is cancelled
Okay, chiming in...I've only written for O'Reilly. I don't work for them(!). However, from everyone I've met who's even remotely affiliated with the company, I can say they're a great group.Yes, they've recognized vlogging (semi-obvious since they started the process of publishing a book on it). I highly doubt they're going to work with others. They had/have the pioneers. Where else would they go? Why would they go somewhere else? I just don't see it.I think they were honest and didn't see it as a profitable market given the timeframe. I can guarantee that it was not an easy decision to make. People inside the company had devoted themselves to the book, too.I do believe that when they choose to pursue the video blogging market, they'll look to the same people. Wouldn't you?Hey, if I get the opportunity to do a second edition, I'd be ecstatic. (Shameless plug: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/digitalvideohks/ ).

Re: [videoblogging] video from a webcam
Yes, it is possible. It will depend on what type of noise it is...is it more of a buzzing, or a humming? If you have an editing system, like Final Cut Pro, you can help the audio by using either a high- pass (for low frequency problems, like a hum) or a low-pass (for high- frequency problems, like a hiss) audio filter. You may also want to look at SoundSoap from Bias (http://www.bias-inc.com). - josh On Aug 16, 2005, at 7:59 AM, Siobhan Ramsey wrote: Hi I have just made a vidoe with WEB CAM but have a terrible buzzing in the background .. does anyone know if it is possible to edit sound on a video to get rid of interference?

The text (for example) will look as though it is broken up into lines, the edges are 'edgy', overall it's not very smooth.
