[videoblogging] FireAnt

[BevSykes]

Someone here recommended FireANT.  I've 
downloaded it...and I have a question.  If you start listening to a 
podcast, how do you STOP it?  Even if I delete the file that I started 
playing, it continues playing.  There must be an easy answer to 
this!

[videoblogging] FireAnt

[BevSykes]

I attempted to download the latest version of 
FireAnt and install on my computer (XP).  It brought up a "malicious file" 
message with the recommendation to stop the install instantly, which I 
did.  Now, of course, my old version of FireAnt has disappeared.  Can 
you assure me that 1.0b6 is perfectly safe to install?

[videoblogging] Fireant issue.

[NOYELLE Michael]

Hi everyone. I'm quite a newbie here, so I reckon someone has already
had this problem in the past.

I got the feed for my vlog (http://vlogstory.blogspot.com) and I
posted one video. But when I use Fireant to verify if everything is ok
with my feed, I cannot download the video I posted, but I only see the
text. It's like I posted a written message but no video.

I am just wondering why that is. 

Thank you in advance for your help. Have a good one.

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt

[Randolfe Wicker]

Bev, with Windows XP I just click the space on the 
blue bar across the bottom of the screen(which is really the link for that 
window) and click "close".  What I haven't figured out to do on vlogs 
I watch through the FireANT list is how to go back to place a comment after the 
video has ended.   I have to close the window and then click back in 
through the FireANT menu.  It's not a big deal but somehow it seems like 
running around the house twice just to get to the other side.

Commenting if fireANT is made to be really easy.

All you have to do is click the little talk/bubble thingy under the
video and it will open the exact comment page for that video in your
default browser.

I originally did it the way you describe, and, then, when someone told
me how easy it was I was pretty surprised.

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt

[Joshua Kinberg]

You can disregard the warning. There is nothing malicious in FireANT.
Those warnings pop up whenever something wants to connect to the
internet, which FireANT needs to do by its nature.

Sorry that if that seems scary... we'll try to do something to disable
it from provoking that warning.

I have Windows XP and I never got such a

program like Spysweeper that you have to protect your system?

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt

Looks like the warning comes from Notron Anti-virus which is very
picky picky.
It is very concerned when a program tries to connect to the Internet.
You can disregard the warning. I know it looks scary. We're going to
try to see what we can do to avoid having this pop up.

Being Mr. Non-Technical, this is probably obvious or wrong or otherwise stupid, but, since it never stopped me before ...

... could it be because the download files automatically is set, by default to on?

Re: [videoblogging] Fireant issue.

[Joshua Kinberg]

Hey Michael,

You're almost there. Check out http://FreeVlog.org and go to step #6.
You need to transform your Atom feed to RSS format.
You can do this at FeedBurner by enabling your feed "for podcasting".

Hope this helps,
Josh

PS: please use the Send Feedback and Report Bug features in FireAnt so
that any request goes directly to our development team.

[videoblogging] FireAnt acquired by Odeo

[Joshua Kinberg]

Today it was announced that FireAnt's software and technology
 was acquired by SonicMountain, a company that
also recently acquired Odeo  (see:
).

I've been asked to join the new team, serving as VP of Product
Development, and will be heading up FireAnt's transition (among other
projects) as we re-launch everything under the Odeo brand later this
year.

First of all, I want to say Thank You to everyone in the videoblogging
community who supported FireAnt along the way, especially Jay Dedman,
Daniel Salber, Erik Radmall, and Clint Sharp, who were instrumental in
launching this project. We met a lot of wonderful creative people, and
made some really important lifelong friendships. It's been an amazing
privilege to contribute to this dynamic and innovative community, and
especially to have been involved from such an early stage. I also want
to thank Jonathan Weiss, Drew Reynaud, and Jesse Boley who continued
FireAnt's technology development over the past year, which was demo'd
at Video on the Net in March 2007.

When we first launched "ANTs Not TV" at Vloggercon in January 2005,
there were about 20 active videobloggers – we knew each of them
personally and worked with most of them to create those magical RSS
feeds with enclosures. It was amazing to see all these video channels
updating over time and to watch them in a unified experience. There
was nothing else like it. It was clear that something powerful was
happening. It was a new kind of television, and yet it was not like TV
at all – it was open to anyone and the possibilities seemed endless.

And it began to spread… thanks to the many talented and creative video
producers, educators, and evangelists.

While FireAnt had its share of struggles along the way as a start up,
I'm encouraged that the ideas we helped pioneer have grown incredibly
stronger over the past few years. This "Not TV" (now more often called
"Internet TV") is really changing the media culture, and it's having
profound social effects. The medium is enabling new voices and
conversations. The playing field is being leveled – the barriers
between "Internet TV" and "TV" are disintegrating.

So it's up to us to create what we want to see and share… We don't
have to rely on Rupert Murdoch and Sumner Redstone to create our
culture. Thank goodness!

I look forward to watching your videos (and subscribing!). When I get
back to producing a more regular videoblog (or whatever it's called),
I hope you'll subscribe and leave me a comment :-)

Best,
Josh

[videoblogging] fireant reporting in feedburner

[Mason Dixon]

according to feedburner my podcast:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/MotionGraphicsChicago

is really popular with iTunes and DTV, but not with fireAnt.
feedburner reports that we only have 3 fireANT readers.

i just dont see how that can be right.
do other people have more fireAnt users showing up?
any ideas why that might be?

Re: [videoblogging] FireANT or iTunes

[Stephanie Bryant]

Josh, I hope it does full-screen. That's the only thing missing in
FireANT. I know "ANT's not TV," but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy
plugging it into the TV and watching all my feeds one after the other.
Without a fullscreen ANT, I'm reduced to opening the files directly in
QuickTime from the ANT download folder, which means I get no further
information, not even the feed title, just whatever is in that video
clip.

To answer the original question: I was using both, because of this
issue. But now all of my iTunes library is on the external hard
drive... which is upstairs and the TV is downstairs in my home. So I
can no longer get the iTunes full-screen option unless I drag the
external drive downstairs.

I still have FireANT set up to download video to the local hard drive.

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt acquired by Odeo

[Steve Garfield]

Ah memories.

It was an amazing time. being able to watch everyone else's video  
back then.

Every... single... video... that everyone else made.

Working with Daniel Salber on FireAnt for the Mac was a great  
experience.  New features and bug fixes that I suggested were always  
implemented quickly.

Being able to work that closely with a developer was lots of fun.

Sadly the Macintosh development didn't keep up with the PC  
development and I ended up dropping FireAnt and moving to Miro.

During this period, my Mac crashed and I ended up starting over and  
subscribing to fewer feeds.

What's happening now is that I only subscribe to about 13 RSS 2.0  
feeds with media enclosures. Others I subscribe to, but go watch online.

I find many new videos via Twitter, Email, IM and Facebook.

Another thing I frequently talked to Jay about was getting the  
ability to be able to see what others using Fireant were subscribed  
to, and beyond that, see what videos they liked or recommended.

That feature would have been cool.

Good luck with Odeo Josh.  I'm interested in seeing what happens.

[Joshua Kinberg]

Before I forget to mention it:

I also wanted to send a VERY heartfelt thank you to Jennifer Myronuk,
who took the last 8 months off to help me find a good home for
FireAnt's software and really supported me, even when things were
tough.

Jen's a citizen journalist/documentary video enthusiast who was in the
process of launching her own software (a FileMaker shareware program
called "StoryField") when she stepped in to help out. (She's also my
fiance).

Thank you, Jen.

This space is all about community -- especially the personal space to
grow and experience what you're made of.

I'm definitely in awe of all of the great work being produced from the
teams at Miro and MeFeedia (and many others) and am honored to have
had the opportunity to have been part of a early software project and
exchange ideas along the way with many great people.

- Josh

Josh and I definitely did not see eye to eye through the whole process
of FireAnt, he and his girlfriend, Jen, deserve the credit for pulling
FA out of a hole...and making sure it lives on with Odeo.

good luck Josh!

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt acquired by Odeo

[Andrew Baron]

Cross posted: http://www.dembot.com/014169.html

Josh, founder and creator of FireAnt is one person who has always  
been on the about page of Rocketboom. We met at school and connected  
over building the first blog at Parsons School of Design and always  
discussed online patterns and activity throughout the 2004 elections.

In particular we talked alot about the development of Rocketboom and  
Ant.

During that time, Josh found out about Adam Curry who was working on  
the same kinds of problems with audio. I remember when Josh first  
told me about this, we snickered in kinda of a nostalgic way, the  
same way you would if you just found out that Martha Quinn was  
building robots and programing micro-controllers.

When Josh, Kenyatta and I were building out the backend and strategy  
for Rocketboom, especially from August through October, 2004, Josh  
had come up with an elegant proof of concept for an aggregator that  
focused on pulling video files with an Apple Script. Nothing that  
Curry and Winer had missed but nonetheless, they along with almost  
everyone else were tunnel visioned on audio (and pdf files!?).

Perhaps one reason for the disconnect occurred because of the  
difference in application. Podcasters were ultimately enamored with  
transferring mp3 files to the shiny shiny (i.e. the ipod) automatically.

With Rocketboom however, there was no shiny shiny (i.e. the video  
ipod) at the time but we saw the aggregator as the killer app for  
bandwidth limits and thick compression settings on the delivery of  
large video files. Pretty files sent to computers over night while  
people sleep to be available in full local playback glory,  
scrollable, jumpable, and without delay when ready for viewing was  
where it would be at.

In October 2004 knowing that video enclosures would catch on very  
soon, when Rocketboom did launch, I made sure we had them working for  
the few people who used Josh's player. I also of course noticed that  
there was no way to offer multiple file types in the enclosure fields  
and decided the only solution would be to offer multiple feeds (we  
launched with several).

Right around that time, Podcasting was starting to gain momentum and  
I always noticed how almost no one else was talking about using RSS  
for video. It was kinda like the Twilight Zone actually in that  
regard. Even through most of 2005, while podcasting was totally  
exploding, very few people took interest in the use of RSS with video  
enclosures. Perhaps it was because the news angle was mostly  
generated from a radio show fanatic slash tech geek-angle and the  
disruption they were casing to the radio industry.

There were two main public brain trusts through 2005 that existed  
separately on the web where on-the-pulse information about  
development in the nascent industry made its way in: [1] the podcasting group  
on Yahoo vs. [http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ 
videoblogging/">2] the Videoblogging group on Yahoo.

As for #1, my bafflement with podcasters and music fans who still  
deal with mp3 crap compression remains. A great beauty of the audio  
aggregator is that you can deliver very high quality audio files (not  
a problem to offer the mp3 versions too for the losers), but  
whatever, people used to take playback quality much more seriously in  
the good 'ol days of wax and lasers.

As for #2, the excitement fueled by foresight into the implications  
behind a world shift in media, would soon drove user testing,  
adoption and good will to Ant (later served with a no-no letter on  
the name, btw), so FireAnt, with "the" surrounding directory of  
videobloggers was where the http://www.dembot.com/ 
006316.html">first party started.

Perhaps we will never know but I feel very strongly that Josh's  
development of the initial player gave Apple their best look at what  
I always hoped they would acquire, but instead, built themselves. In  
a single moment in October of 2005 with the release of the video iPod  
and video podcasting in iTunes, Apple opened up the concept of video  
online to the masses (er, you know what I mean) and essentially took  
a great deal of FireAnt's steam. Coincidentally, the prior release of  
Apple's audio podcasting client in iTunes stole the same kind of  
steam from Odeo so it makes since that these two companies would come  
together for a return match.

Apple's strategy for growth was and continues to remain stealth and  
secretive, closed and proprietary. They probably get away with it  
because their products are so good. But Apple's aggregating features  
have never been as good as FireAnt's which strated off as open sourse  
and remained open on the frontend.

I consider Josh to be a major pioneer in the space for being one of  
the first, if not the first to create a video specific aggregator,  
going on to win the support of the videoblogging community, growing a  
business from an early 2.0-like application, sustaining the onslaught  
of 

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt acquired by Odeo

[Rupert]

It's great. Congrats. Nice summary, Andrew.

I wonder whether at the same time as making many more people aware of  
it, Apple actually set back video podcasting with iTunes.  It so  
limited people's ability to connect with the creators and the whole  
watching experience was so bad, and so focussed on the iPod, that I'm  
sure lots of people have been turned off the idea of subscribing to  
video podcasts.  Or at best, are mystified as to what the point of it  
all is.

Now that the shininess of the iTunes and iPod experience is wearing  
off (at least for me - i used to use both a lot when commuting, and  
don't anymore) I think there's space opening up again in the market.   
Apple had their Shock & Awe chance to revolutionise video consumption  
and they blew it, in my opinion.  Will be really interested to see  
whether this new Odeo/Ant combined effort can come back and fill the  
gap now that awareness and need has developed.  Subscribing to and  
watching videos is only half of what it's about - the secret sauce,  
in my opinion, is in the connections with the creators.

[Sull]

"connections with the creators"

that can be interpreted in different ways.
knowing how to contact a creator, where the creator's website/profile is,
where else they may be active online... and offline... meetups... who else
is a fan of the creatorwho is the creator a fan of and so on.

mefeedia has deep focus on discovery and connections.  are people happy with

I remember the early days of FireAnt, and meeting you guys and realizing how

You certainly deserve it, and I wish FireAnt the best in this new endeavor.

Re: [videoblogging] fireant reporting in feedburner

[Joshua Kinberg]

This thread was also posted in our FireAnt user group, so I'm going to
paste my response here as well
--
Hmmm... I wonder if Feedburner is looking for the wrong FireAnt
useragent... we changed it when we changed the name from "FireANT" to
"FireAnt". We will need to follow up with the Feedburner guys to check
on this

Here's the other thing with iTunes... it checks all the feeds each
time you fire up the iTunes application, which may be pretty often if
you like listening to music. FireAnt does not check the feeds unless
the user tells it to do so. iTunes may also check feeds multiple times
per day, thus skewing "subscriber" numbers (those numbers are highly
suspect anyhow, so I wouldn't really trust it as a true indication of
how many subscribers you really have. I'm not really sure how those
numbers are generated)

As Jay pointed out, try including a FireAnt subscription button on
your site and its likely you will then see more subscribers in FA.
FireAnt is a little different than DTV and iTunes in that we really
try to keep all your meta-info in tact. This includes the textual
information in a blog entry and especially links. Thus, by encouraging
your viewers to use FireAnt, its quite likely that you will actually
get more traffic back to your site from FireAnt.

Re: DTV... I think your feed, "Motion Graphics Chicago" was included
on the front of the DTV Channel Guide for a long time, so that could
be why you are seeing more subscribers there as well.

To get more promotion through the FireAnt website, try going in and
adding tags and ratings to your channel the episodes in it. We need
some more help from the community to try to push up content, so it
wouldn't hurt to tell other people to vote you up as well if they like
your stuff. We are also planning to re-architect the front page of
FireAnt.tv pretty soon to make it more dynamic so that it features
more content and changes more regularly. This should also help bring
more promotion to more vloggers.

And speaking of promotion, we could always use your help in the
promotion department. You guys know us, and you probably also know
that we're fairly modest when it comes to self promoting. We don't
really do press releases, and we hardly even promote FireAnt on the
videoblogging mailing list (we see that more as a discussion
environment than a promotional one). So, please give us a boost and
blog about FireAnt if you can. Your help really goes a long way.

Re: [videoblogging] fireant reporting in feedburner

[Daniel Hehmann]

I've got a question about FireAnt, so I figured I'd ask it here. Is there any way to view the vids in full screen? I've tried double clicking, alt+enter, seaching for a button, etc. and I've yet to be able to do it. I really like FireAnt but I rarely use it because I like watching vids in full screen.

Re: [videoblogging] fireant reporting in feedburner

[Joshua Kinberg]

We have fullscreen viewing available for Quicktime videos in the Mac version.Fullscreen viewing is not yet available in the Windows version, but it is definitely on our roadmap. Until then, you can view the video at maximum size by selecting the "Viewer Mode" toggle button in the toolbar (looks like a TV screen).

I assume it's just the same old windows version of fireant, but it's black,
and has a new name.

They should have made it "mocha" like zune's most infamous color. :)

Just joking though, I'm really pleased to see Fireant siezing the moment.

Re: [videoblogging] Fireant podcatcher for the zune

[Joshua Kinberg]

Hi all,

We haven't really posted about this one here yet... glad someone else
broke the news. We were mostly trying to hit our target launch date to
coincide with the Zune launch, and by all accounts, FeedYourZune had a
very successful launch and filled an important niche that Microsoft
left out of their initial product offering with the Zune.

This version of FireAnt is completely new and redesigned -- definitely
not the "same old windows version." Please download and let us know
what you think. FeedYourZune is the result of a lot of hard work over
the past few months to re-architect FireAnt -- which is still
in-progress. Expect more to come soon...

In addition to the entirely redesigned UI, one of the other main
features is that FireAnt can be easily branded/skinned. Over the next
several months, we plan to launch several different "powererd by
FireAnt" branded media players with various partners.

Please stay tuned for much more to come...

Looking forward to your feedback!

Best,
Josh

Hey Josh.
Good luck with the brandable app business.

I booted up my PC and downloaded it.
Couldnt get things going :(
Here is a screengrab:
http://spreadthemedia.org/files/feedyourzune_crash.jpg

Should I clean out the fireant app first?

The UI looked pretty slick from what i did see.

Thanks,

Sull

Re: [videoblogging] Fireant podcatcher for the zune

[Joshua Kinberg]

Hey Sull,

Yes, Try uninstalling the old version of FireAnt first before
installing the new... this is an issue we are currently resolving.

Alternatively, you can try removing/renaming the FireAnt database located at:

C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Application
Data\Mycelia Networks\FireAnt\FireAnt.fdb


Hop that helps... if you have other questions, we can go over them off-list.

Best,
Josh

Re: [videoblogging] Fireant podcatcher for the zune

[Joshua Kinberg]

Hey Josh,

I feel your pain... We're a small team with limited resources at the
moment. Over the past several months we've had to focus our energy on
the Windows version. We are currently at work on a redesigned Mac
version, but it is still in the early stages. Hopefully we'll have
something on the Mac to show you soon. We always appreciate your
feedback!

Best,
Josh

Re: [videoblogging] Fireant podcatcher for the zune

[john coffey]

I'm sure Mac works better than the new Windows since the old Window was 
horrible by my comparison. But I'll give the new PC version a try. Now people 
need to by a Zune.

from the reviews of the zune, it may very well only be a "moment".

 (Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question, but)As a user you would use whichever is appropriate based on what you have running on your computer.  I.e., if you have Windows, then use the Windows version of Fireant.  If you a have Mac, then use the Mac version of Fireant.
As a vlogger, you should try to make your vlog work with ALL software out there.  (Well, all that support the standards anyways.)  And not just Fireant.  (No matter how nice of an application it is.)

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt Windows Vs. FireAnt Mac

[Joshua Kinberg]

I can try to answer this... though I don't know if you'll be satisfied with the response...FireAnt has a different interface on Windows and on Mac. This is partly due to the fact that we've had very different developers with different styles who were creating on entirely different platforms (and because we are completely self funded, we allowed our developers to make the application *they* wanted to make). Much of the basic functionality is similar -- you can subscribe to RSS channels, download media, and watch any video no matter what format (Quicktime, Windows Media, Real, Flash, MP4, MP3, etc). Though there are some differences, such as BitTorrent support (which is coming soon to the Mac version), or full screen viewing (which is still on the roadmap for the Windows version). As we move forward, we're working to bring the functionality of each version up to the same level, and we're looking into bringing some unity to the user interface of the separate versions and come to something more similar on each platform. It will be somewhat of a challenge, but that's where we're heading.
As for support, I think you'll find that we're incredibly responsive to feedback and requests. We have limited resources but we're continuing to make progress.Hope this answers your questions...Regards,

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt Windows Vs. FireAnt Mac

[john coffey]

Josh, that explains alot. Just yesterday I was playing around with Fireant on XP Pro and the interface was so different from my beloved OSX. The big problem was that Fireant downloads videos (XP) but I cant find or play them in the FA aggregator. I have to go to documents and then they open in the original format. Any suggestions?

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt Windows Vs. FireAnt Mac

[Michael Sullivan]

A Unified UI is important.  Good choice to work your way towards that.I'd suggest simplifying the UI on windows version even more.Can you direct me to the BitTorrent Support Documentation? I foget... does it also seed torrents or only download and play?
In other words, is FA a true BitTorrent Client?Thanks,sullOn 4/4/06, Joshua Kinberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt Windows Vs. FireAnt Mac

[Joshua Kinberg]

Never heard of that before! It really helps if you send bug reports when you have trouble. Of course, there are many thousands of people whom it works for just fine, so I have no idea of the specifics of your setup or what might be the trouble. Please email me off-list and we can try to work it out.

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt Windows Vs. FireAnt Mac

[Joshua Kinberg]

No documentation needed, really. BitTorrent files download and play like any other file. While a BitTorrent file is downloading it is simultaneously seeding, as per the BitTorrent protocol. We have not added a configurable seeding ratio after download however (so perhaps it is less of a "true" Torrent client). It was our first priority to simply make Torrents download and play, and I think we've done that very well in the Windows version.
That said, I still think BitTorrent sucks in general. If a file is not at the height of its popularity, it can take a vey looong time to download (not our fault, that's just how BItTorrent is). So its not exactly the friend to the "long tail." Great for really popular stuff at the height of its popularity, sucks for everything else. Besides, there is still a very miniscule amount of BitTorrent syndicated via RSS feeds, even after 1-2 years of talk about that process. Its nice to think about, and of course we should continue to support it, but in the real world it continues to be less than a fringe case.

Re: [videoblogging] FireAnt Windows Vs. FireAnt Mac

[Stephanie Bryant]

They work the same. I find FireAnt Mac to be "easier" but that's mainly
because it's more familiar (there are some things that drive me batty
about it, just as there are some things in FireAnt Windows that drive
me batty).

They are both well-supported. I typically get a response within 24
hours if I have a question or concern, and they are both being actively
developed.

I assume you're asking because you have a Windows and a Mac and don't
know which one to use for watching vlogs. Here's a tip: Windows Media
Player is no longer supported on the Mac. So if you subscribe to one of
the few WMV vlogs out there, you should use FireAnt PC, at least until
microsoft pulls its head out of its well, you know.

That's exactly it -- I've both Windows and Mac, and 'druther run it on
one system.  I've installed it on Windows for now...perhaps I'll test
it on the Mac someday...

[videoblogging] FireAnt 1-click redux [was: 1-click subscription button for FireAnt]

[Joshua Kinberg]

I've slightly edited the FireAnt 1-click subscription code.
So, for those of you who were ahead of the game and rushed to include
a FireAnt 1-click button to your site, iI'm going to have to ask you
to get the most recent one-click code to copy-paste into your site by
going to: < http://FireAnt.tv/buttonmaker >

== Changes ==
- Validated XHTML (thanks Jen!)
- External links from popup window open in new window (thanks Devlon!)
- Popup window includes link to original RSS feed URL so its easy to
copy-paste for other aggregators (thanks Andreas!)

== Why you need to get the new code ==
- It has validated XHMTL
- It makes the popup window a little larger to accomodate the new
information such as the original RSS feed link for other aggregators

Thanks to everyone for their feedback!

-Josh

The RSS URL is the href attribute of the link, but not the URL of the popup.
I'm using a Javascript onclick event to trigger the popup at a
different URL than the href attribute. The popup URL is actually:

http://FireAnt.tv/subscribe?rss_url=[URL of RSS feed]

This is roughly the same code as my video popup script at:
http://joshkinberg.com/popupmaker

Taking your suggestion though, I am going to add the link to the
original feed URL at the bottom of the popup window too, so that
people can subscribe in other aggregators too by copy-pasting the URL
the "old fashioned way."

[videoblogging] Fireant and your vlog content (won't get your blog role...google ads)

[aroundtheperimeter]

One thing I was thinking is that I want people to have a RSS option on
my video..but I want them to see my sidebars too!  If they are
watching them on fireant how will they see the links?  I know they can
go to the site from fireant...but i don't want them to have to take an
extra trip...i want it to be one stop..

Your issue isn't with FireAnt, it's with RSS.  This issue is well 
covered and written about in the blog community.  You have to make a 
decision as to whether people being able to get your content w/o having 
to remember to check your site is more valuable than them seeing your 
site laid out as you would choose with HTML.
