[videoblogging] Re: Anyone going to the New Media Expo?
Hilton Las Vegas hasn't been renovated and your experiences there are common among conference goers. A conference I represent (PubCon.com) is a media/conference partner with New Media Expo and my current company - Storybids will be exhibiting at New Media Expo so I know Las Vegas well, in fact, over half of the Las Vegas Strip is a client in one way or another. My recommendation would be to stay at a hotel with direct monorail access that is a decent property such as Ballys/Paris or MGM Grand. Other options that are close by and nice are Treasure Island/TI and Wynn Las Vegas provides a shuttle every 20 minutes from 8am to 8pm. Getting a cab is challenging from the convention center - especially at days end when everyone is heading out to dinner. A much nicer option that is walkable is the Renaissance on the opposite side of the convention center and the property is only about 3 or 4 years old so the rooms are nice and new, however, again, getting a cab at this property is challenging and I've had to wait upwards of 20 minutes to get one on a busy night. A big plus to this hotel is no casino and no smoking so its a lot calmer than most strip hotels. I'll most likely be staying at Planet Hollywood since I'm a Starwood Hotels member and they tend to upgrade their Gold and Platinum members and the walk next door to Paris/Bally's isn't too bad to catch the monorail to the convention center (10 min.). Hope this is helpful.

[videoblogging] Re: Recommendations for a small camera (Xacti or other) to shoot in India
Neil, I'm curious, when you say you've returned everything in the 'Xacti line' does that include the new Sanyo HD-1000? Or does anyone else have experience shooting with this camera? I had the previous version of Sanyo's HD camcorder but lost it and am about to purchase a new one and would like to know how the new one fares. Thanks! Joseph Morin CEO www.StoryBids.com 949-679-8599 --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Neil Katz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Neil Katz here, a journalist. I have had very good experiences with the Xacti CG65. Small, cheap, shoots well in low light, and is stable on zoom, and files sizes are small. I did an entire video story for the NY Times with that camera and even snuck a shot into a report for CBS News on national TV. http://video.on.nytimes.com/?fr_story=74e0011bd397f3fdad54e60c3b52612d009fa8bf Judge image quality for yourself. And keep in mind the NYT site is playing at about half resolution. I have purchased and returned every camera in the Xacti line except the CG65. The others have better specs, but nothing has a better picture. And it fits in your pocket, which means you will get the shot. Battery life is poor. Buy three batteries and a quick charger. Use an online site to buy non Sanyo batteries. They run $20/each. The only negative is in order to edit you will have to convert the native mp4 files into DV. Sanyo says you can edit with mp4 files and technically you can import them into Final Cut Pro. But it doesn't really work, trust me. That conversion process will take about 1 minute per minute of footage. So if you shoot three hours, expect three hours of conversion when you come home. As an aside, working in India, if you don't have Sony, you can't get it fixed or spare parts, adapters, etc. N --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Rupert rupert@ wrote: I agree. I've been using a Canon Ixus 860 (European name for Powershot, I think) and it shoots beautiful video. I love it. And it's FANTASTIC in low light. Better than Xacti. But not quite so good a grip. I think the Xacti pistol grip is the best way to shoot - better than the traditional camcorder grip. It produces big video files, though, compared to other little cameras I've used - so get yourself an 8GB memory card or two. I found the best deals for memory cards online - shops will rip you off.

[videoblogging] .avi v .mov v .wmv/Ourmedia v Blogger
Okay I'm slowly getting some of the parts together. I've officially become a VBlogger and want to thank you all in advance for the help you've offered others and that hopefully will extend my way as well. Here are a few of my questions: here is my blog address: http://blueheron2.blogspot.com/ Note two things: 1) though I tried to follow directions exactly like the video said I was unsuccessful at making the ScreenShot image into a Link going to the video 2) I was successful at making the text Click here to view the 10 second video clip into a link for the video But here is where I get confused and am wondering about things. the video is located here: http://www.archive.org/download/MariaHaroVideoProductions/PA_Dee23.wmv in the video the example has the .mov designation. I started with .avi and with Windows Movie Maker ended up with the compressed .wmv designation. 3) How do I get it to go from .wmv to .mov? Or should I not do this? Am I suppose to use that Avid software? If so is there a tutorial for this? The reason I'm asking is because when I go to ourmedia.org I can easily see the online video on ourmedia's page: http://www.ourmedia.org/node/121174 but when I click the link and it takes me to the above .wmv link for the video and on my system it tries to open with Winamp and nothing shows up. Its just a blank screen. I'm wondering and pretty well suspect that I don't have my system configured correctly. 4) How do I set my computer up so that a file in any of a number of different formats will open up correctly? Is there something I can read that explains which designations: .mov, .avi, .wmv, or ??? will open up in which video viewers: Windows Media Player, Real Player, WinAmp, QuickTime, etc.? IS this where that FireAnt or MeFeedia would help me out? well I guess you can see I'm just full of questions. thanks, Joseph Puentes http://NuestraFamiliaUnida.com Yahoo!

[videoblogging] ClassRoom Lecture VBlogging?????
I have a friend who is a Professor at a large University who would like to do VBlogging for some of his lectures. I told him I just started VBlogging yesterday and didn't really know but that I kind of doubted it was possible to send out both Video and Audio in the 30-50 minute range en mass as in Podcasting. Am I right or wrong about this? It seems to compress something enough would make the screen so small that details of maps and printed materials would be hard to see clearly. what are the parameters of file sizes that can be described in number of minutes? What is possible and what is practical? I know when I do a 30-40 audio podcast that this can take a long time to download for those that have dial up and also a serious take on my cable modem. But with Video I would think this would be a hard pill to swallow. What do you all think Joseph Puentes http://NuestraFamiliaUnida.com Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Most low income homes are not online.

[videoblogging] such a Simpleton! Compression
I just decided to learn how to vblog. It actually doesn't look to bad except that I can't get past a very basic step. I went to the Free Vlog tutorial at: http://freevlog.org/#compress I am using a Dell 4550 PC and have Windows Movie Maker. So I opened WMM and dragged and dropped an video clip (.avi) onto it while I was watching the tutorial video on compressing with WMM. On the tutorial it says to click on Save Movie and then go to other and to NTSC 768 etc. Well for the life of me I can't seem to find the Save Movie button and options to do the other and NTSC 768. [in fact that whole row is missing I see the menu items -file-edit-view- like in the tutorial and I see the row of items below that has undo, redo, tasks, collections and that window, BUT the row with Save Movie Send Record is completely missing). I did a get info about Movie Maker and it says Microsoft Windows Movie Maker Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519: Service Pack 2) Copyright 1981-2001 Microsoft Corp. Windows Movie Maker Version 2.1.4026.0 Do I have an old version that needs updating? Or am I just blind (probably)? I can't get past step .5 on the compression of the video so I can then upload to ourmedia/internetarchive.
