I use Blip.tv combined with http://www.freevideocoding.com to post my videos on various projects. Blip.tv provides free video hosting and tracks views (as Steve pointed out). Blip.tv also provides direct links to the videos. A direct link to your video allows you to use http://www.freevideocoding.com to make html for you in any way shape or form you want. I love using Blip.tv's direct .flv link and http://www.freevideocoding.com together because FVC has jeron Flash player built into code so your viewers get easy viewability just like most video hosts provide. Nerissa ############################################################### 9a. Embedded player question Posted by: "Mark Westin" [EMAIL PROTECTED] throbbingcow Date: Tue Jan 2, 2007 1:04 pm ((PST))
Hi folks - I'm more of a content guy than a tech guy, so I hope some of you with tech expertise can explain something to me. I'm working on building a vlog for a friend, trying to write the code myself and learn by doing. We're trying to figure out a player that can be embedded on other people's sites, as opposed to just putting a link or a screen capture image there. I use blip now, and I know we could also go with YouTube or any number of others, but then when people watch the videos, the site whose player it is gets credit for the traffic. We'd like to be able to get the traffic when people watch our video, wherever it ends up. I also know bandwidth will get expensive, but put that part aside for the moment. Is it possible within reasonable time and expense to build an embedded player that brings the traffic back to my site, no matter where the player ends up? (and as I said, I'm still not much of a tech guy, so if I've phrased anything incorrectly, please let me know and I won't be offended.)
