Re: [videoblogging] HDVid M2TS convertion
Premiere can edit m2t natively, but that's not free. I'm pretty sure Super can convert m2t files. I use it for converting anything to anything else. Note: their web site is a mess, it takes a while to find the download link: http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html And I would guess Avid Free DV probably could too, but it was discontinued. You can find an old version floating around somewhere online though.

[videoblogging] Re: Fun with YouTube's Audio Content ID System
I'm working on a education PSA project and I'd like to use snippets from contemporary music. If I can find public domain or other tunes that is great and my primary focus but this is what irks me about trying to lock down music. There are certain songs that don't really belong to the music companies. They are as much my cultural heritage or a marker for a cultural place in time. If I wanted to do a educational video poem about 1968 I'd have to use War by Edwin Star or 4 Dead in Ohio by CSN(Y?) not the whole song but a segment. I am straight up non-commercial but with YT wrapping ads around the videos my fair use is being subverted by the web hosting company. True, I don't have to use YT but I now find myself in a situation where never say never has just bite me in the ass. I have been asked to post to YT a small series of PSA/Information videos on cyber safety for women, power of voices and god knows what else. I'm gonna get Ralph on in the comments for telling women how to protect themselves. Oh Joy. This info is a great help but it is sad that we have to go through the hoops to keep aspects of our heritiage alive, following fair use rules and still getting the shaft.

[videoblogging] How big is the network really?
About a year ago on this list, I asked why a really popular video on youtube would only be seen be around 2 million people when it was posted. Seemed strange to me that a global network could only muster so few people out of the 6+ billion people on the planet. When are we going to see a popular video get watched a billion times when it gets posted? We debated about how most people on the planet arent plugged into the web. How we are still divided culturally and by language. How many people connected still are on slow/limited connections that make web video unreasonable. How "web culture" is still very much a tiny niche...as much as we think otherwise. All very true. I just noticed that that Susan Boyle video on Youtube is up to 40 million hits in just over a week. If you count the other identical clips uploaded, it comes close to 80 million. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=&search_query=susan+boyle&aq=f So this is just a data point. I'm always curious just how big the "network" is when it comes to shared culture.

[videoblogging] Joe Biden sucks up to Hollywood?
Couple of interesting articles I saw today. I have said it before and will say it againit is looking more and more that this administration is very pro MPAA and RIAA.and with an IP Czar getting ready to be posted soon, I worry about the future quite frankly...I would have thought that a person who used the internet so brilliantly during the campaign would have a better understanding, but I guess not http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20090422/1727474611.shtml http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-10224689-38.html?tag=newsEditorsPicksArea.0 The Obama administration continues to give in to pretty much every wish of the entertainment industry. At an MPAA-sponsored dinner, VP Joe Biden repeated a bunch of Hollywood talking point myths as fact, and promised stronger intellectual property enforcement. He incorrectly referred to file sharing as "pure theft," claimed that it hurt the economy (with no evidence to support that) and said that it caused lost jobs. Of course, the industry has been putting out bogus studies claiming such notions, but they're easily debunked when you look at the details. Biden also promised that the "IP czar" would be "the right person," which (given the audience was Hollywood execs) almost certainly means someone who will roll over and obey the industry, rather than focus on actually increasing innovation and protecting consumer rights. Earlier at the event, Commerce Secretary Gary Locke noted that the recent leak of Wolverine "underscores the problem the industry faces," while saying that he "believes in the full and impartial enforcement of the law." Again, as has been discussed widely, the leak of Wolverine doesn't demonstrate any problem at all. Plenty of people will still go see the movie in the theater, and if the industry had reacted intelligently, it could have turned the leak into a marketing coup. Instead, it acted stupidly, and because of that, the administration is going to bend over backwards to help the industry keep acting stupid rather than adapt. What a shame. These moves represent a real loss to the economy, society and culture. For whatever reason (money has a lot to do with it), the administration seems to have bought into the totally unsubstantiated claim that there is only one business model for entertainment (selling content), and thus it needs to create laws to make sure that such a business model works. In doing so, it's creating massive inefficiencies, decreasing content production and making it even more difficult for new and innovative business models and services to thrive.
