Re: [videoblogging] Thumbnail archive with videos only?

2005-11-27 Thread Jen Simmons
Peter, is there anyway to refresh what mefeedia sees? Ie: to get it to clear out it's database and re-look through all the entries in a videblog to find files, links and make new thumbnails??

Or any way to tell it to go get a thumbnail??

It seems quite common that mefeedia misses a movie + never makes the thumbnail for it. And I ran into trouble when I changed a post and mefeedia was stuck on the first version (which I'd deleted) and wouldn't take in the new information about the second version

is there a way to 'refresh' what mefeedia knows??
jen



 Of course, this is a minor problem compared to the fact that it has
 *still* not showing thumbs for almost half my videos (even some fairly 
 recent ones).

No, we don't have that yet.

 Or any way to tell it to go get a thumbnail??

No, not yet :)

 It seems quite common that mefeedia misses a movie + never makes the
 thumbnail for it. And I ran into trouble when I changed a post and
 mefeedia was stuck on the first version (which I'd deleted) and

When Mefeedia misses a movie, it will get to it at some point in the
future.. Right now, we're working on speeding that up. When you change
a post, Mefeedia doesn't check it again right now.

Basically, all those problems you mentioned are indeed problems, and
we're working on them. It will take a while though, I hope to have
fixes for these things by about March 2006. Sorry it will take so
long! I hope to have the thumbnails speed up faster than that..

Me. :o)
I really don't see why anyone should be limited to just posting video to  
their blog if they want their blog to work in mefeedia (or any other  
blog-related service). Only supporting video posts is a limitation totally  
alien to the way the web works (and it's a little bit pretentious). Unless  
you're aiming to be tv watching on the web, of course.

Anders, Raymond and I went to Bloggforum in Stockholm last weekend - it's  
Sweden's largest blog conference. Of all the people we spoke with and  
presented for no one was interested in starting a video-only blog. A  
handful was interested in adding video to their existing blog (and a  
couple have already).

Yeah, that's the way it works right now.  We are doing lots of
improvements over the next few weeks and we might find a different way
to do this.

It brings up a good question...how many videobloggers use their blogs
to post text and video? (as in text is when no video is accompanying
the text)

  Hmmm...
