[videoblogging] Daily Motion experiments with Open Vieo
http://blog.dailymotion.com/2009/05/27/watch-videowithout-flash/ *Why does non-Flash video playback matter?* Its both technical and philosophical, but to make long story short, it will allow us to do new, fun things with video. Some examples are on our demo page http://www.dailymotion.com/openvideodemo. Ultimately, we expect this to enable innovation in user experience, SEO, advertising, etc. For more on the value of open video, read the article herehttp://www.0xdeadbeef.com/weblog/?p=977 . Pretty exciting that a video hosting site will allow playback of videos in Ogg. I know its still confusing as to why anyone should use the Ogg video codec, but I think more compelling examples will keep popping up as creators figure out the cool things you can do with presentation/interactivity on HTML 5.

[videoblogging] how do I remove vids from 5 Min?
Hi everyone, For over a year I've been using Tubemogul to upload videos to various sites. Recently I noticed that 5 Min is showing pre roll and overlay ads w/o my permission and w/o sharing any earnings. I emailed them kindly asking them to stop and haven't received a response and there doesn't seem to be a way to delete videos from the site. Anyone know how?

[videoblogging] Interested in a critique group
Hi all. I'm new to this group and glad I found it. Wanted to see if anyone was interested in forming a critique group where we share content and provide constructive feedback and give ideas about the appropriate market. or maybe such a group already exists and someone could steer me toward it. If it's a small group with up to 10 people or so, we could just swap links and shoot messages to each other. If it gets much bigger, might want to break into subgroups by category of content. Anyway, let me know if you're interested or if there is already such a place I could go. Thanks, Spencer

[videoblogging] Re: megaVideo
I think that one of the things that you have to consider when it comes to MegaVideo, is the incentives structure they use to get people to post. Since they can't actually upload the files themselves without violating their safe harbor, they pay contributors part of the ad money to upload popular content. I suppose, some might get worked up over it, but my philosophy is that if you can't beat them join them. The site itself is getting huge traction, probably close to 25 million unique visitors each month by now. One can ignore that audience or accept the spammy ads and the questionable business model of the site but be able to at least control your submissions. If you post your own content, other people won't be able to scrape it and submit duplicates. In the long run it's probably better to build an audience around the site, then to try in vain to stop them. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, sjs Productions sjsproduct...@... wrote: Thanks Jay for you input.

Re: [videoblogging] Daily Motion experiments with Open Vieo
Because ultimately, if you want to preserve your work for the future, open formats are the way to go... agreed...though many people value ease of use over longterm archives. This will change as the first wave of video creators get older and struggle to keep their older work viable in proprietary formats. Remember when REAL video was the de-facto standard? I still run across archives that are still require REAL to watch. Also, an open source codec allows for the community to create an infinite number of tools...without the fear of the tools breaking if a change is made. I think it'll allow for a lot more creativity at a much lower price. we have a long way to go, but it feels as if it's really starting to come together now: http://openvideoconference.org/ Jay -- http://ryanishungry.com http://jaydedman.com http://twitter.com/jaydedman 917 371 6790

Re: [videoblogging] Interested in a critique group
I too think that this is a valid idea, as long as people were interested. What about a web portal, based on WordPress and only accessible to members? Using Kaltura (see my post from earlier today about testing), one could login into the members only critique site, upload their video, and all members could critique using WP threaded comments, or even an integrated forum ( SimplePress forum plugin integrated with WP posts nicely). It may sound like overkill for this use case, but might setup a nice framework for a larger video critiquing community. If anyone is in agreement, I'll work it into the Kaleura test site I'm setting up... Adam W.
