[videoblogging] blip.tv, my .mp4 uploads appear as .flv files? [ don't appear over iTunes video-podcast ]
Previously, my .mp4 uploads appears as .mp4 when I upload to blip.tv They've changed it around, a fancier look. My .mp4 uploads now appear as .flv I'm using Blogger as video-blog source for my iTunes video-podcasts. Feedburner shows the .flv as enclosures, but iTunes is not picking them up when I update my video-podcast. What is the solution? Can I changed the source files on blip.tv to .mp4..?

Re: [videoblogging] blip.tv, my .mp4 uploads appear as .flv files? [ don't appear over iTunes video-podcast ]
Hey B,Your .mp4 uploads *should* appear as .flv (in addition to .mp4) on www.blip.tv, but it's your choice how they appear on your blog (you can change your options by clicking Edit on your blog at http://www.blip.tv/blogs/list/). Either way, FeedBurner should *not* be picking the .flv files up as enclosures -- we specifically don't use rel=enclosure on them, instead always including the link to the .mp4 with a rel=enclosure. Could you send me the URL of your blog and your blip username off-list, so that we can look into this in more detail? I haven't heard about this particular problem before and I'd like to find the cause and fix it for you as soon as possible. You can e-mail me directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED], or you can send your e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED].It may also be helpful to you to join the blip-users group so that you don't have to send blip-specific support e-mail to the videoblogging list. You can ask to join at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/blip-users/ and I'll be sure to approve your membership request right away.Yours,MikeCo-founder, blip.tvOn 6/4/06, B Yen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Previously, my .mp4 uploads appears as .mp4 when I upload to blip.tvThey've changed it around, a fancier look.My .mp4 uploads nowappear as .flvI'm using Blogger as video-blog source for my iTunes video-podcasts.

I like that! nothing NEEDS context For a thing to be a thing it needs context. What is a thing?I couldn't tell you unless I had context, you see. None of any of thismakes sense without context. Exactly. Who or what decides what that context is? A lengthy process to describe but much of that comes down to who is really in power. I'm talking about it in a bigger sense. In our case, we have values based much on how the system functions and keeps us all in line. This is not the place for me to elaborate on that as we could go on forever about it. It seems like you are trying to say vlogs are bad because they areinterpreted within some context (they are enculturated) ... This is the same as saying, vlogs are perceived.No. I didn't say vlogs are bad. Having a shallow nature is only one side of how a vlog can be perceived. It was something I question about my own vlog and have at times pulled stuff down as my perceptions of my own work sometimes change. So often when trolling for video blog visuals one comes upon a massive amount of material, that is in MY opinion, mundane and a waste of time for me to be viewing. It's hard to find consistently good stuff, so one trolls and looks for what one wants to see. There is so much out there to look at that it becomes overwhelming and tiresome. And now... anyone can have a soap box to stand on and ponitificate without responsibility. I usually go in to a site with optimism, looking to validate. I don't find a lot of that yet. by example. here is a list of sites I trolled through this morning. I got lucky. there is some good work on these sites. not all of it, but some. all based on my opinion and what my needs are. what i want to collect and record in my brain to be used in another fashion somehow as I may pontificate about to someone else another time. http://www.blogwaves.com/http://lookingglasslandvlog.blogspot.com/ http://www.kenyamoto.com/http://www.escape.is/main.php?vloghttp://php.internet.is/levy/weareone/ http://blogger.xs4all.nl/videorephttp://php.internet.is/levy/weareone/cat/vcast/ There is this fundamental process, where an object impinges on a senseorgan - from than instant the signal is translated into a neural signal, and intensely manipulated, and eventually it is labeled - itis given meaning probably someone in association areas of the cortext(in class, I used to say then a miracle happens).

Ahhh, yes. That was it. That was the one. I knew it would happen sooner or later. The message thread that might finally shove me clear over the edge as far as this board is concerned. I used to consult the board a lot. There's lots of handy info and tons of cool people who want to help out. Sometimes there's some neat heated debates going on, but too frequently there are just bitchy, snappish back-and-forths, wild oh, but it's so hard to interpret what you really meant in print! Oooh, isn't text just so ineffective?!-type misunderstandings, snippity-do-da's and one-line zingers that clutter up this space and make it feel like a high school..no, wait: a Junior High School cafeteria. Wait: An All-Girls Junior High School Cafeteria (yeah, and that's not sexist. If anyone here has spend any time around 8th grade girls you know what I'm talking about here). I go away for the weekend and come home to quicky scroll through the messages and find this half-baked, faux-profound, vlogger-baiting bullshit? An I'm so shallow, you're so shallow, too thread? Why would anyone want to participate in that? That didn't feel like an invitation to a conversation about the meaning of meaning, and the subsequent posts sure didn't read like productive conversation and I'm damn surprised so many people joined in the non-fun. ...making salad ? ...takes a meaningless swing. ? ...casey only stepped in to make a point that casey exists ? I feel like we've got this message group chock full of people who have are hell-bent on communication via videoblogging or otherwise and yet I look at this board and I'm astonished at the consistent lack of communication! I don't feel the need to defend my apparent lack of depth to someone who asks her questions in some bizarre haiku-ish format just because she saw a video that made her go oooh and she realized that so many other videos don't make her go ooh, and I'm not posting this message to prove I exist. What are you getting at? I post therefore I am? Take that desperatly-wishing-to-be-existential, cranky, vague, meaningless thread about meaning and cram it. You know what? Kiss my vlog-ass. Ponder that. I've hit my message-board wall. And, no...I won't likely vlog about it. It would probably end up shallow since all we're really doing is attaching meaning to meaningless things in order to get what we want from others.

[videoblogging] Idea for a Special Videoblogging Day
Hey Folks, I want to throw an idea out and see if anyone would be interested in taking part. August 12th is Home Movie Day, a worldwide celebration of home movies in old film formats - 16mm, 8mm, Super 8. It's a chance for people with old films to get information about preserving their films from archivists. It's also a really cool event where you find out the old guy next door used to be an olympic volleyball official. See my latest post http://www.aaronvaldez.com/vlog Anyway, not everyone lives in a city that is hosting an event so I'd like to see if there are any videobloggers with old home movies that they'd like to post on August 12th. If you don't have any of your home movies on video you can download and edit something from the Prelinger archives at the Internet Archive. If you live in a city that is hosting a Home Movie Day screening I encourage you to attend and interview some of the filmmakers. If anyone out there would like to create a website and manage the Day's submissions for future reference please let me know. This is a really important event and I thought it would be an interesting fusion between old and new technologies that both explore community, personal/local history, and so-called amateur filmmaking. More info on Home Movie Day at http://www.homemovieday.com I am not affiliated with Home Movie Day or the Center for Home Movies. I host an event in Iowa City, Iowa. --Aaron Valdez http://aaronvaldez.com/vlog http://valdezatron.com SPONSORED LINKS Fireant Individual Typepad Use YAHOO!

[videoblogging] is this camera broken?
My Canon ZR80 cheapie camcorder has started showing horizontal lines on playback (maybe recording, too - can't tell). I bought a head cleaning tape and ran it through three times - no change. Any ideas what might be wrong? The Canon site is no help. -- best regards, Deirdré Straughan www.beginningwithi.com (personal) www.tvblob.com (work) SPONSORED LINKS Fireant Individual Typepad Use YAHOO!

Re: [videoblogging] The One That Pushed Me Over The Edge (was The Shallow Nature of Videoblogging)
Condolences on the loss of your videocamera. I know how frustrating that is! At least I have my digital camera as back-up, but it is going to be very long time before I am able to replace my video camera.On 6/4/06, Deirdre Straughan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: snippity-do-das?
