please elaborate Josh how is itunes not keeping metadata intact? the fact is, i get better description display in itunes it also displays publication dates and sorts by them too, which i find very useful clearly itunes is lacking some great fireant mac features (comments, opml import) the converse is equally true (playlists, thumbs, ipod support) but, I don't understand the point about the metadata markus Joshua Kinberg wrote: You don't lose the text associated with the blog post with RSS. In fact the text is a very integral part of it. In FireAnt, we've always treated the blog post as a whole unit, and strive to keep all the metadata in tact. This is not the case with some other "podcatchers" such as iTunes. -Josh On 11/29/05, Will Luers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I wish ezedia could open a new quicktime player. Suppose a browser is good enough. A syndicated teaser video about the student's project with a hotspot to go to the QT file on a webpage. That might work. This is what I'm exploring now for a narrative project. What is frustrating about RSS is you loose text as an intergrated part of a vlog. Of course vloggers use words, but not in a way that is new and interesting, like your student's project. For example, a travel vlog - instead of one 5 min video. You could string/net together many very short videos with text. This is where the clickable vlog could take you out of the aggregator and down some intersting paths... anyway, these things take time -Will www.taylorstreetstudio.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Adrian Miles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: around the 30/11/05 Will Luers mentioned about [videoblogging] Re: making a vlog soft that: I know you are not crazy about syndication, but I think this work would be great in an RSS feed. Could work with absolute paths. No? ah, <soapbox danger warning ALARM> alas no. first of all ezedia doesn't write absolute paths, only relative, so all the media in the media directory are the videoclips that Kate's movie needs (different to the rhizomes that she links to). This is an excellent example of the problems with syndication at the moment. This is very good work. sophisticated, very very easy to make in Ezedia (it really did take one class to teach them how to do all this), and an excellent example of one sort of vlogging. But it can't syndicate because each video you add to your project becomes a child movie in ezedia. This is why it can make cool things, like movies inside of movies. RSS breaks this stuff, which is why it currently condemns us to TV in a box. </soapbox danger warning ALARM> -- cheers Adrian Miles this email is bloggable [ ] ask first [ ] private [x] hypertext.RMIT <URL:http://hypertext.rmit.edu.au/admin/briefEmail.html > Yahoo!
