Crazy. Thanks Jan! I hope to find a solution that will work right from the phone ... I wonder if I can rename the files right on the phone perhaps.

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
Hi Pat, I still advise caution on that interpretation of the market. My own interpretation of mobile companies offering video services is that they are selling their own content from their own portals. That's how it is in the UK, anyway - most video consumed on phones is P*rn/Soft P*rn & Sport & Comedy clips sold through the provider's channels. Access to third party podcasting is not highlighted, nor is it very easy and it's only sought out by the truly dedicated. And since nobody even on this list of early adopters has ever said they do it, except as an experiment (Steve G), I stand by my thoughts. As for embedding watchable video on a web page for viewing on a mobile device... you can see how the magnificent http://wreckandsalvage.com do it - I wonder if they have many mobile views. Btw, you saw this thread as encouraging - it isn't. It isn't about David trying to appeal to cell phone video viewers, it's about him trying to send video shot on his phone to his blog for viewing regularly on the web or via RSS. I watch videos on my iPod occasionally on the London underground. I am the only person I've ever seen doing that, even given the massive sales of video ipods - they launched 2 years ago this week. And I've never seen or heard of anybody watching video on their mobile phone. And a good number of people I know have video enabled phones, now, because the call packages are cheap.

Tiny. Interestingly enough, I've found from the software I've downloaded and used that 176 x 144 is believed (Keyword is BELIEVED) to be the "defacto" standard for cell phones, though the preview seems to vary from phone to phone (One of the pieces of software I downloaded gives a preview as to how the video would likely look in a given phone). > But I have to ask, how many people will actually watch on a phone?

My guess is the most universal cell phone format for download is 3gp. Send me your phone # off list and we can try.

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
Yeah. I had same probs with mp4 files not playing. Anywhere. Used the 'change the extension to 3gp' which worked fine. Problem with 8525 pocket pc mp4 shooting is that the files are too large to MMS to Blip, so I've got to get 'em to the MacBook, change the extension, edit, then upload. Have reverted to shooting in the smaller 3gp files for immediate upload gratification. How do you get your phone to shoot in avi?

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
Hey Pat, Yeah, the unfortunate truth of video codecs is that you can't make something for everyone. Flash seems like the perfect Mac/Windows solution, since nearly all computers have Flash player, or can download it quickly. But Flash doesn't work on phones. Or at least, Flash 8 & 9 won't work on my video phone. Gah. Flash 7 Youtube videos will, though. But now they're being converted to H264, which won't. The one format that does seem to be accepted by almost all phones that play video is 3gp. But at what resolution? 160x120 or thereabouts, I think. Tiny. If you get VisualHub, and get it to pump out multiple versions of your file, and upload all those files to Blip, and then get Blip to crosspost to your blog, you'll get a nice post with all your file formats linked to. MP4, WMV, 3GP, FLV. Then, if you publish with Wordpress, you can use something like the nice plugin that the ShowInABox.tv guys have made, to create format- specific feeds. So it'll be possible for you to 'easily' offer podcasting in different formats. But I have to ask, how many people will actually watch on a phone? Like Jan, I make videos using my phone - a Nokia N93, which has serious video capabilities - but I've never ever watched or subscribed to anybody else's video on it. And I'm someone who's very into watching web video. So is it worth the effort? I guess you won't know until you try.

So far, all I've found is some software that encode for some phones, but not others while other software will encode will only encode for only a scant (A *very small* scant at that) handful of phones and that's it.

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
Oh, God, I haven't used Facebook for ages. Except to watch those videos that Heath made, and only then because he tagged me and I got sent a message about that. It's got to the point where I'm scared to open it to read all the messages and friend requests and hear how many people have bitten and poked and infected me. Jesus - Facebook has become like my bank statements. How did that happen? On 22 Oct 2007, at 23:10, David Meade wrote: Thanks Rupert!

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
hmmm thats odd ... 3gp is a type of mp4 as I understand it .. but still ... that odd. :-P I don't think I can change the extension, but I can choose to save as avi instead of mp4 ... I'll do some testing ... given your discovery, I bet they probably are using the same codec inside the avi container and thus I probably wouldnt be sacrificing anything by using avi. I'll test that to be sure. Thanks Rupert!

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
So I downloaded one of your mp4s and changed the extension to 3gp and it plays fine. What that means, I don't know. Seeing as it worked for a while and then stopped, my first guess is that it's something Apple screwed up in the last Quicktime update - allowing QT to recognise a 3gp file with an mp4 extension. I do know that my Nokia records lower quality 160x120 video as 3gp and higher quality 320x240 & 640x480 as mp4. So maybe your phone is set to record at lower quality but is still outputting an mp4 extension. Can you rename the file extensions in your phone, or would you have to copy to PC first before emailing/uploading to Blip? What a drag.

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
well I have an unlimited data plan with cingular (now at&t) , and can record as much video as my SD card will allow.So far my mobile vlogs have all been via email. I record the video and then email it to my blip address ... it then automatically gets cross posted to my site. I've done one such video in avi format and several in mp4 ... unfortunately something has happened recently and QuickTime player is no longer playing MP4 videos recorded from my phone (Cingular 8125). If you go to http://www.davidmeade.com/tags/movlog/ you can see my mp4s which previously played inline just fine ... but now even though blip confirms the files are there ... quicktime player isn't playing them anymore.

Re: [videoblogging] pocketPC video editor?
Hadn't thought about that David, but it might be nice...especially to cut out the last 2-3 frames when filming 'small' video in 3gp (my pocket pc films in either 3gp or mp4, 'large'). Here are my collected 8525 links though - FYI - http://del.icio.us/love_detective/8525 Will let you know if I find anything in my web travels. Curious: Do you have a maximum MMS upload size attached to your account? If not, who are you using and what kind of plan do you have?
