Looks good, but I had a hard time understanding what you were saying. Some kind of audio problem, I guess, or maybe you were just speaking too softly. Are you going to Vlog the whole trip? Feel free to look me up when you come thru St. Louis. I live very near Route 66. Bill Streeter LO-FI SAI

Yeah, that is annoying but it is not nearly as bad as when you go to a vlog's homepage that has every posts loading an embedded video. That is cause for an instant click on stop and back. Most blogging software supports a post summary and a post body. We use the summary on all non-post pages as

This is a bit of a problem with Windows Media Player. If you right click to open the context menu and check the Properties, it will give you the specs of the player view, not of the video itself. It resizes itself width-wise to whatever value you set, but height has to be correct or things get

Re: the black borders -- you're showing a TV-style sized video inside a movie-style player window that is 400 x 300. Change the width= and height= specification of your player object to fit the size of the video. Be sure to include room for the player controls. For 320 x 240 video use width

Embedding a video vs. popping it in another window or player does not pose any technological back-end restrictions or problems. Its a choice for user interface and design. Whatever you would like can work just fine. On Oct 1, 2005, at 11:11 AM, LeanBackVids.com wrote: > > > --- In videoblogg

I use WordPress for LeanBackVids.com and we're able to declare a media enclosure without having to link directly to the file. Even if I do not add the enclosure, WordPress is ususally smart enough to do it for me. Not sure about the "obvious permalink" though. Either way, we've never noticed a p
