FireAnt uses the Quicktime API, so yes you will need to install Quicktime if you wish to view Quicktime videos (if you have iTunes then you also have Quicktime). We are not illegally reverse engineering any codecs, but rather using the native APIs that support the various codecs/formats. -Josh On 11/19/05, Frank Carver [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Saturday, November 19, 2005, 6:11:05 PM, Joshua Kinberg wrote: Shameless plug... tell people to download FireAnt, and then it doesn't matter what codec or video format you use.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: mov in to wmv
One exception to throw into the mix... APple made up a whole new codec and file extension/mime-type for the new video iPod, which certainly didn't help video codec matters. There was no such thing as m4v a few weeks ago before the video iPod. The next release of FireAnt will support m4v... stay tuned. -Josh On 11/19/05, Joshua Kinberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey Markus, Please send us bug reports if you encounter errors.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: mov in to wmv
They only made up a new extension/mimetype, its not a new codec, its h264 mpeg4 Yes, this is correct. Unfortunately because many people are likely to just use the apple ipod export in qt703, m4v's are going to appear. So I appreciate very much you adding m4v support to fireant.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: mov in to wmv
I found this out few days ago as i was embarrassed not to know the scoop on m4v besides it being for video iPod.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: mov in to wmv
This is also why we chose the development path for vSocial that we did. I personally can't wait until Flash 8 is a bit more ubiquitous, because the On2 codec (as HORRIBLY slow as it is to encode) is a huge improvement over the existing codec. This is also why we keep the original format for feeds as well as offer a transcoded M4V (which I just confirmed works as intended.. posting later about it) feed for iTunes. Too many codecs for average folks to have to handle. Heck, I barely like having to keep up with all of them. :) Bill Streeter wrote: This is exactly why I've taken to posting Flash video for viewing on my blog and Quicktime for the feed subscribers.

This video just supports my claim that whenever Flash runs smoothly, its full of horrible artifacts because it requires such a low bitrate to work well. Note that when ever the camera pans, the video turns into a pixel grid of about 15 by 15 squares.Lets see a 600 or 700 mbsec flash file that is as smooth playing and scrolling.Also, the poor platforms that I referred to below may not allow the user to upgrade to the latest flash application.On Nov 17, 2005, at 4:46 PM, robert a/k/a r wrote:Andrew, I wouldn't discount Flash.IMHO the quality of this VideoEgg file is quite good, have a look:http://www.thomasblard.com/thomasblard/2005/11/arroseur_arrose.htmlthe tinyurl is:http://tinyurl.com/822zrcheersr--URL: http://r.24x7.com Deconstructing the status quo, collaborativelyOn Nov 17, 2005, at 3:40 PM, andrew michael baron wrote: With all of my rejection of .wmv files combined with my hopes for a single CODEC, I have learned that the number one reason to provide .wmv files is for people who do not have the authority to install on their machines.Many people at work do not have access to install.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: mov in to wmv
I don't fully disagree with you. I see the panning problem on the television too, and it will most likely go away when 1080p DVD player (and media:) arrive. The trade-off is accessibility, if the choice is a pixel blur during a pan vs not being able to plat the video then we all know the answer. Regarding allowing users to upgrade would that not apply to the Windows player as well?

Note that when ever the camera pans, the video turns into a pixel grid of about 15 by 15 squares. Lets see a 600 or 700 mbsec flash file that is as smooth playing and scrolling. Also, the poor platforms that I referred to below may not allow the user to upgrade to the latest flash application.
