We'd venture a guess and say you're probably using a licensed camera and software and uploading to services like YouTube or Vimeo or Viddler, and that means you're totally in the clear. What about the linux/FLOSS communtiy that wont get a license because of the NDA (Non-disclosure agreement)? the end-user pays So what if you self host your videos and have ads on your site, is that commercial use? What if you create a DVD of your independent movie and use the codec and then sell the DVD? Have I just distrubuted commercial content?

I doubt that the processors of Windows Mobile devices are fast enough to allow editing of raw video, even if it's mobile phone shot compressed video. I, however, hope that one day there will be a Windows Mobile flash- based software that allows miniature video editing on the go. So, imagine the hard drive based camcorders would in-camera convert the video files to this mobile edit-friendly format, be it in 320X240 DIVX or other non-processor-intensive format. Allowing transfer of these file from camcorder via Bluetooth or memorystick to a Windows Mobile device. So while on the road, say, when still in transit to where the full-fledged editing workstation is, one can edit the clips on a Windows Mobile device, and later, after importing the raw equvivalent of those video clips, this mobile software will transfer all the math behind the edit so that all the raw video clips are presented just like in the mobile editor. This will be a big time saver for videographers who shoot they dailies outside the editing studios. So to sum up all the above; 1. Footage shot and each raw video clip on the hard drive of the camcorder has a mobile editable version 2. Either via bluetooth or memorystick, these files are transfered into a Windows Mobile device 3. Footage is edited, cuts, transitions, effects, etc. 4. When in the studio the miniature edit is sycronized with FCP or Premiere by importing the raw video clips and placing the edit in the timeline just like in the timeline of the Windows Mobile video editor. What do you guys think? Should we start harrassing camcorder manufacturers as well as finding the right talent to create this mobile software? :)) Of course it's idealistic, but, wouldn't it be great??

The Zencast and Media explorer software would always convert any Ipod compatible or .mov file and create a wmv file for the Zen to use, now it just errors out. And I am sure it's something to do with Quicktime, because this morning it transfered one of Susan's video's (her Disney trip part 1), it was a Wmv file and it transfered with no issues.

Just shot some hella fun footage of Bay to Breakers (runners! nudity! costumes! dancing! alcoholism!) and I'm dreading the thought of having to edit it all with Quicktime Pro or, even worse, Windows Movie Maker. Anybody have suggestions for a simple, lightweight video editing application (or, even better, online thingie)? I've only got a 1GHZ laptop, so I'm not sure I could run the latest Premiere or Vegas. Two words Jackson 1). VirtualDub - http://www.virtualdub.org/ 2). TMPGEnc - http://www.tmpgenc.net/ VirtualDub is an editor that allows you to actually see everything frame by frame, much like Cool Edit or Audacity does with audio. VirtualDub allows you to export your video as an AVI (Yes, you can use any codec installed on your system) TMPGEnc is a program that you can use to correct sync issues. TMPGEnc only exports in MPEG-1 however. To convert into the Quicktime format, your best bet would be to go MP4 as opposed to the MOV route and (Obviously) use Quicktime Pro. But short of that however, you can Google for MP4 converters or download one from CNET or Tucows. There are scores of them out there for Windows. Some are freeware. Some are trialware. It just depends on what you're looking for. :) I have several MP4 converters myself. The best one I've found (Short of getting Quicktime Pro mind you) is the Jodix Free iPod Video Converter. But your mileage may vary, so don't stop there. :) Hope this helps :) Cheers :) -- Pat Cook Denver, Colorado WEBSITES - AS MY WACKED OUT WORLD TURNS - http://pchamster.livejournal.com/ PAT'S REAL DEAL VIDEO BLOG - http://patsrealdeal.livejournal.com/ Pat's Health Medical Wonders VideoCast - http://patshealthmedicalwondersvideocast.blogspot.com/ MY LIVE CAM - http://patscam.camstreams.com/ YouTube Channel - http://www.youtube.com/amwowttv/ THE PAT COOK SHOW - http://www.livevideo.com/thepatcookshow

I might be vulnerable to wifi hotspots, but nothing's perfect. Any suggestions of what to buy set up so I can use Skype on a cell?
