Good points Chuck.  I can understand your feelings on the matter,

[videoblogging] Re: the lamest format (it's not Flash video)

[v1b3n]

Has anyone here been playing w/ the new Flash Video Encoder included 
w/ Flash 8 Pro?  The On2 VPC codec produces a pretty nice file.  I 
haven't had time to test compression.  This output requires the 
flash 8 plugin to playback.  I have been having some problems with 
the new flvplayback component, but all-in-all...the new stuff is 
pretty nice.  You can included cuepoints before compression, then 
call those points with the actionscript.  They also included Alpha 
layers. Again..I have only been playing with it and haven't 
published anything.

Here's an example from my vlog:

I was browsing around this afternoon, and came upon an old favorite, 
heavy.com.  Anyone notice that they are able to do video at 640x480 
with very little quality problems, and it loads fast too.  I wonder 
how they get it so nice and small at such a resolution?

Hmmmany thoughts?

[videoblogging] MT template question

[v1b3n]

I'm in the process (albeit slow) of making our vlog template in MT.  
Do any MT users in here suggest using includes for commonly used 
portions of the site (ie. nav, header, footer, etc..)?

If there is any method to the madness, please enlighten me.  Thanks!

Quick questions and advice.  Is there any alternative to FireAnt for a

I would suggest the fact the they are extremely conservative on

Really much more of a match for a publisher.
