I am sure the gang at blip is doing everything they can to resolve the
issue.  They have always been very attentive to problems.

For a free service with a ton of features, they kick ass.

You could post a message to the blip users group list?

Yeah, they may not even be aware of a problem.  I think Mike is

The thought has certainly occurred to me!  The other day I spent four
or five hours in the server room and then another few at a Starbucks
across the street (just in case).  I know from the issues we had with Mefeedia (up until last week...knock
on wood) troubleshooting these types of problems are tough.  Especially
when it out of your own pocket, on spare time, etc.

blip provides a great service and you all do a sweet job of staying on top of things.  Keep up the great work. 

I will sleep in the server room next time if I have to, though! :)Better get a really warm sleeping bag ;)

RE: [videoblogging] Re: blip & iPod

2007-01-09 Thread Mike Hudack
Hey Nicolas,

The short answer is "you bet."  We actually released ipod transcoding a
week or so ago, but we pulled it back because many of our users already
upload ipod-compatible videos and there was concern about duplication of
effort and end-user confusion.  We're planning to bring the feature back
for pro account holders very soon in such a way that you'll be able to
request transcoding to an ipod-compatible format as part of the upload
process.

Yours,

Mike

Hmm... that's two cool things I didn't know about blip.

1) pro services?  didn't know that you had them yet, I guess Ihaven't
been paying very good attention

2) transcoding for ipod compatible in addition to flash... that is
cool... but of course superceeded by the big news with the intro's and
outros which means transcoding is a given.  The question is what
format do you transcode too. Please tell me it's mp4 that is PSP and
iPod compatible.

Got it. We do some resizing but it shouldn't be inconsistent at all. I'm 
putting jared on this thread, he owns that code and will be able to debug this.

Subject: [videoblogging] Re: Blip JPEGs

Same thing happens to me using uploaded thumbnails I generated myself, both 
with 
upperblip and using the upload page.  You can see it in the RSS of EMS.

I generate thumbnails @ 480x360 and sometimes they come in that way and 
sometimes, 
they come in much smaller.  When the auto-post goes to WP, it shows up as the 
smaller 
image, but will pop to the correct size to play the video.  I've had this 
happen when 
uploading thumbnails and videos at the same time.  When I've gone back to edit 
the file 
and upload the correct size again, it takes the file and makes it the small 
size again.

I bypassed this by coding height="360" and width="480" into the jpg, but that 
makes the 
images fuzzy, as was discussed in the "record small and increase the viewing 
size" thread.

RE: [videoblogging] Re: Blip JPEGs

2007-01-11 Thread Mike Hudack
OK, guys, I've found the problem.  If your thumbnail is bigger than a
certain max_size (which is set in our configuration files) we resize it
to a new size, which is much smaller than that max size.  We do this
principally to keep from screwing up people's blog layouts, and also
because people have a habit of sometimes uploading mammoth 13 megapixel
images as their thumbnails.

The code itself is working okay, but it looks like our configuration
settings could use some tweaks.  How does 640 x 480 sound as a new max
size / resize target?

Sounds big, but that's just me.

I'd like 320x240 since I have a narrow main column.

Can this be an option for people?

I'd like to make it an option at some point, but we don't have that
capability right now.  In the meantime, it's going to have to be a
global setting for everyone.  Anyone else have a feeling on this?

You got it, the change is made.  We'll resize any user-uploaded
thumbnail that's larger than 640x480 to a target size of 640x480,
maintaining aspect ratio.

By the way, we're shooting for a new release on Saturday... Lots of nice
new stuff, although no intros and outros yet :)

Yours,

  Hey guys,

Yes, blip was down for a little bit today.  Everything has been back
up and running for some time now, and we expect it to stay that way :)

The cause of the failure, for the geeks in the house, was the failure
of the RAID controller in one of our primary production servers.  We
switched to backup servers quickly, but there were some hiccups along
the way.

As always, please don't hesitate to IM me if you have problems with

Hey jayme,

Apologies for the late reply here.  We dealt with this separately on the
blip-users group, and should have e-mailed the videoblogging group too
(there was a bad DNS entry out there for some people, we tracked it down
and fixed it).

Anyway, separately, we always redirect videos to mirror sites.  It's
part of the way that our video serving infrastructure works.  If you're
having a problem with videos only downloading and not streaming please
e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- we'd be more than happy to take a look at the
problem for you.

Yours,

Mike

Thank you, Mike. Everything is cool now. I'm not on the blip users group, 
but I've subscribed to the blip.tv blog a couple of days ago. I'm glad to 
know you have good relations with users. If anyone mentions blip.tv and 
YouTube in the same caliber, they are living in another dimension. You do 
excellent work and my only hope is that you will keep doing what you're

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip Pro Account

2008-04-04 Thread Tim Street
Thanks Sheila.

I'm speaking with several Ad Networks that want to deliver pre-rolls,  
post-rolls and overlays to my content and I need a FLASH player to  
deliver the ads as well as a solution for the RSS videos. I also need  
low cost hosting for these videos.

I think Castfire has a great solution but until I know how much money  
I'm going to make with these ad networks I'm not sure I want to pay 38  
cents per gig of transfer. The Castfire guys are doing some testing  
with some ad networks and may soon have a solution but until then I'm  
looking at all the options out there and Blip Pro looks like it may  
work.

I see that Moblogic is using Blip Pro as there FLASH player and they  
have their own advertisers displaying pre and post rolls and the same  
ads are playing in their video podcast.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip Pro Account

2008-04-04 Thread Tim Street
The whole idea here is for me to take control of my advertising  
inventory.  I'm still not sure if Blip Pro will work with the ad  
networks that have approached me or not but I'm going to give it a try.

Revver is a great service and they have been wonderful to me but when  
another advertising network comes to me with pre-rolls, mid-rolls,  
post-rolls or even jelly rolls I can't deliver those on my Revver  
videos if  the other Ad Network doesn't them on Revver.

To be fair to Revver,  I'm sure they would be happy to take any ads I  
sell and do a rev split with me and I just might try that as well but  
the main idea here is for me to have the control.

Right now if I want to do a pre-roll for T-shirts that French Maid TV  
is selling I have to edit those in. I want to be able to serve dynamic  
ads that I can change in the future. Then I want to figure out how to  
do dynamic integrated advertising - but that's a step 2 thing.

I'll contact you off list to chat about opportunities with your company.

I've never had to endure Sprint, but I'm not a fan of companies stealing  
the name of other companies. It creates confusion and the blip.tv guys  
don't need that.

I seriously hope blip.tv has a trademark registration-- the name
similarity IS causing customer confusion, which is exactly what
trademark exists to prevent.

I'm certain the blip.tv guys are all over it. However as far as I can tell  
 from the USPTO website both good blip and evil blip have trademark

Deliberately taking on a popular brand name within an industry that
you want to breka into, and then using it for the purposes of
confusing customers into believing that you're the more popular and
reputable company is generally considered whore-worthy.

That was explained in about the second post on the subject, I believe.

It would be like if I made a soft drink and called it "PepsiColaCom"
to confuse people who like Pepsi into drinking it. PepsiCo would be on
my ass with a hungry pack of lawyerhounds so fast, it'd make your head
spin.

Well we don't know that they chose their name *after* our beloved
blip.tv did ... we found them much later, but who knows how long they
have been calling themselves that?

services that send video out to cell phones isn't evil, nor is having
a name similar to something else ... (it may be wrong, but it's intent
that makes it evil)

You are right however, deliberately chosing a name because its similar
to something else is whore-worthy and evil ... I'm willing to believe
thats what has happened, but do we know that?

I love blip.tv (our blip.tv) so much, I'm willing to shoot first ask
questions later ... I'm just saying.  :-)

unless blip.tv has been doing there thing for 4 years, it appears that bliptv.com has been using the name to some extent related to video since then... the contact people are the same today as they were in 2002... the earliest version of the site i could find.

Thanks GuysThere is a step in the right direction, now blip is even more accessible to the passing viewer and some of us who still can't view some of the videos on the site, even though I have downloaded plug in after plug in.  There is so much of Randolfe Wickers' work that I couldn't see before but now thanks to this new developement, I look forward to seeing a lot more diversity from around the world.Again, wicked work.Paul KnightOn 14 Mar 2006, at 15:00, mikehudack wrote:  Hey guys,  We're now using Flash as a default playback mechanism on blip.tv itself.  This is so that our users -- your users -- who don't have the latest Quicktime or Windows Media installed can still watch the video.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip and Flash

2006-03-14 Thread Richard Show



Mike,A couple of questions about the flash cross posting:1) Will the flash video be embedded such that when users click it, it will play in the page (rather than pop-up window)?2) Will the users still see the screen shot that we upload on my blog page, or will they see the first frame of the flash video in place of the screen shot. 
(My preference would be that they saw the screen shot, and when they click it, the video would play in the page - embedded).3) Could the cross post include a link below the flash/picture that said "upload .mov version" (or whatever our original format)? (Of course, I could easily creat that myself, but I'm lazy and just wondered).

2006-03-14 Thread David Meade



What about the media permalink?  On my blip blog page it points to the MOV but on the file detail page it points to the flv.I'd personally prefer the link to point to my MOV (I've been toying around with more and more quicktime interactivity features and want to drive the use/distribution of the quicktime format.)
In my perfect world there would be an option to "Always display media permalink to source format." (or some other better worded option =P)I also might prefer my blip blog to show the quicktime movie version for the same reason.

That's the idea.  The idea is that you can dynamically attach your own

large number of videos that you want to perform pre- and post-roll
manipulation on, you can do them all at once in batch on blip.  That's
the idea, anyway.  

We've also got some pretty nifty features up our sleeves for interesting
things you'll be able to do with intros and outros in the future, but
those are a little farther off.

yeah could be convenient.
but there shoudl really be a way to simply apply these to your videos on
client-side
should be a feature as part of the transcode... just select your intros and
outros from a list of ones you made.

do any video editors do it like this?  i havent seen it.
eventually will be more common.
imovie/finalcut plugin?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip adds Intros & Outros

2007-01-10 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Yes, users control with sensible defaults sounds right. How about something
like this:

By default, the original file gets the prepend and append, and the flash
file too, and those are the versions you make publicly available. Include an
option to prepend-append to existing videos I uploaded earlier.

The original file stays available too (at .../original/...), and make that
available to the content creator, but not to the public, *unless* the
content creator checks the "for appended videos, make unappended unchanched
version available to public" checkbox.

At any time, the content creator can switch prerolls/postrolls and re-do the
append operations for 1 video or all videos. This way I can change my intro
and attach it to all future videos, or to *all* videos.

That'd be my personal preference.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip adds Intros & Outros

2007-01-10 Thread groups-yahoo-com
So much to say I actually started to write an email twice, but I had to stop.

It's brilliant!  I don't know where you get these crazy ideas from but
keep it up! ;)

I like Peter's idea btw... but I can expand on it GREATLY... this
could well be only the tip of the iceberg.

I say, save the source if you have the space on your servers. Why?
Think about in the future creating "blip projects" think flickr
groups... but it's not about simply sharing... they're PROJECT
groups... they're about collaborative editing and organizing... either
rough cut editing online (with original source videos!)... using
blip's future online editing tools... or by downloading clips, editing
and reuploading to the blip projects.

Maybe... you just want to embrace the remix...

Or maybe you steal apple's "rip, mix burn" slogan.

And you adopt a strategy, of "Shoot,  upload, mix, publish!"

"Blip Projects" would be descrete groups... like a pbwiki... or say
this yahoo group... that can be public or private... or many stages
inbetween.

They could be used to collaborate... say... a "vloggercon project" for
vloggers to upload raw footage to share publicly, organize and
collaboratively edit.

or what about offering some white label version of this to podtech
or rocketboom and others with "correspondents in the field".They
got the correspondents go out in the field... covering CES, and
macworld and they're to damn busy in the field to do any editing...
they're not sleeping... they may be in bed... with each other even...
but they're not sleeping... because it's CES...  so they upload the
footage to their "Podtech CES Project on blip.tv" so the podtech
editors who are well rested can organize, grab source and edit
together shows.

But that's not it... no. not by a long shot... because... what if you
were in a war zone and wanted to vlog... and you had limited
resources, editing time, software, tech, and broadband say you had
a blog and it was called Alive in Bagdad and you needed some
collaborative space to upload and share raw footage with your
co-conspirators state-side with their fancy macbooks, and their
broadband and editing software..

But wait that's not it!?   What if you were in the bush in africa...
like literally in the bush... shooting all this amazing footage of
wild dogs, and elephents and lions and rhinos!? Oh... wait, that's
wildcast.net!

It's not like you'd have a broadband connection in the bush, nor a
mobile editing station... maybe you'd upload some raw clips via sat
phone and blips intro & outro tool would be GREAT for that!  Slapping
an intro... a title sequence and an outro on it, transocding it to
flash an mp4 and posting it all to your vlog... at wildcast.net

But also may you could also upload some raw footage, some audio clips,
some voice over material and what not to "Project Wildcast on blip.tv"
and your conspirators in London could mix together some superb shows.

But wait... maybe you're on the road... maybe you're covering a
presidential campaign with three other people...  maybe that of John
Edwards?   You're not all on the road at the same time but you
need to be able to collaborate with your compadres to share the
load... maybe you need some place to upload raw footage for your
conspirators to edit and post?


And let's not forget the original idea either... the idea of just
having simple intro's and outros.

Maybe you've got a video cameraphone... maybe it's a Nokia n70, or a
N93 or N95 and let's say you shoot some footage of someone getting
tazered in a library in california... or maybe you're on vacation and
a tsunami hits... I don't know... use your imagination...

The point is you can just hit the old share this video button on your
phone... and you send your footage off to blip... you key in a
title... "i just saw something that might change the world"... and 30
minutes or an hour later there it is, a post on your vlog... titled...
"this might change the world" and there's your clip... not in 3gp
format as you shot it, but in a very shareable and viewable flash...
and a nice mp4...

So what if maybe this ONE video clip of some kid getting tazzered at a
library might not actually change the world... yeah, probably not, but
maybe... just maybe the aggregate... of thousands and thousands of
people just like you... doing the same thing... civil servents of the
camera... doing their civic duty... shining camera's into all the dark
but also quite often wonderful corners of the world... and sharing
those videos with the click of a button... not in realtime but web
time... that sort of ubiquity, that instant access, press button
simplicity to shoot and share something with potentially the entire
world... maybe the aggregate of thousand and thousands of people
will.. maybe, one day change the world... maybe like an idea that's
time has come... in some sense it already has.


That or maybe you're just some guy who has a sub $100 digital camera
that takes some nice 320x240 video in AVI

Now you'll be able to post video directly to from your mobile video

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip Show Player and Archive Pages

2009-09-15 Thread Rupert Howe
Excellent!  I totally agree.  Many great vlogs have minimal  
characterisation & identity in their site design - the character and  
identity is in the videos.
As for content, some of my favourite things that you've done were your  
mobile video posts, where you just shot moments with your phone.
You don't have to try hard to make something - you are very watchable  
on camera.

I use the Blip playlist player to show my more popular old videos on  
my Greatest Hits page, and it works really well.

It's not even really that necessary to have your own podcast feed -  
you can use Blip's iTunes feed if you're uploading everything to Blip.

I need to look into blip again as I start up some new projects. I like many
things about the showplayer, I love how supportive they are. Download speeds
are the only thing that have kept me from using it more.
And absolutely minimal site design can be a boon. When the moving image is
the point, accompanying design needs to support, not compete.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip Show Player and Archive Pages

2009-09-18 Thread Chad Boeninger
The blip playlist and player is very cool. I've been using blip for about a
year now, and have only just begun to take advantage of the playlists and
embeddable full show players.  This has allowed me to keep all my content in
one place in one account on blip, but to distribute it in playlists to
different players for  different viewers.

As an example, my videoblog show player only highlights videos from my video
blog http://libraryvoice.com/videos/show-player/

I have a separate blog for my interest in cycling, so I have a separate
playlist for videos of bike rides.  http://redneckinspandex.com/ride-videos/

Finally, as a business librarian for a university, I've just started
creating specific playlists for business, company, and industry research.  I
had initially thought I would create an entirely separate blip account for
this purpose, but multiple accounts seemed a little too hard to manage.
Here's the business videos
http://www.library.ohiou.edu/subjects/bizwiki/index.php/Biz_Research_Basics_Videos.

The only drawback for this method is that if someone goes to my show page on
blip, libraryvoice.blip.tv, they'll likely think I'm a bit schizophrenic.  I
doubt anyone is going to sit there on my blip page and watch all my videos
in chronological order, as my all-over-the-place interests don't necessarily
stick with a "one common theme" for an actual show.  However, if you simply
think of blip.tv as the repository for your content, the blip playlist and
embeddable show player truly allow you to put your content wherever and
however you want.  Very cool.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip Show Player and Archive Pages

2009-09-18 Thread Michael Sullivan
blip's stuff is obviously convenient and great.
but just a reminder that you can do this on your own with several free/cheap
flash video players and even with html5/javascript.
it would not take long to make a feed/playlist and add the same experience
to your site.
their are also other web services that focus on this.

this is for people who dont use blip or want to try other alternatives to
blip either for more flexibility or just to learn and experiment.

some quick references:

http://www.longtailvideo.com/

http://flowplayer.org/

http://embedr.com/

http://www.videoplaylist.org/

spend a few bucks and buy a flash player:

You don't have to be a casual user...
The whole reason I started to play around with the blip stuff was
because I'm sick of spending so much time messing with all the
roll-your-own solutions. It's a complete pain in the ass and the end
result is not worth it anymore for me. Blip.tv features have come a
long way. I'd rather spend more time making work than doing make-work.

Yes, true. Jay forwarded my qestions to blip tech support and they  
answered:

"Hi there,

You can create a custom player that does not show the more button at  
the end. Follow
these steps:

1. Go to the player editor and create a new Single Episode player,  
make sure you name it
something you'll recognize.
2. Customize the player however you'd like.
3. Go to the Advanced tab
4. Use the blank boxes at the bottom of the page to enter  
"showmorebutton" in the first
one, and "false" in the second. (Don't include the quotes)
5. Click the plus button
6. Click Save Player"

So I only had to change my show player, works perfect. The strange  
thing is I posted first
in the blip yahho group and got no answer…

Yeah, most press I've gotten doesnt usually bring all that much change in
traffic, except for the couple times on NPR becausedrum roll,
please...they actually link to content!!!

Not even the SF Chronicle links to my site when they write about me, which
is weird since they consider themselves techy.
