I agree with the idea of using a video sharing solution such as google video, <a href="http://archive.org">archive.org</a> or <a href="http://youtube.com">youtube.com</a>. <br>Some persons may still want to download the video, in that case storing it at
<a href="http://archive.org">archive.org</a> is a good idea.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Jan 10, 2008 1:41 AM, Noah Gift <<a href="mailto:noah.gift@gmail.com">noah.gift@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
One thing I would highly recommend is to use Google Video to host<br>streaming video. You can then use the <embed> tag to embed the flash<br>video and let Google handle the bandwidth. Here is an example of the<br>
repoze video:<br><br>This is embedded into Plone 3:<br><br><a href="http://pyatl.org/presentations" target="_blank">http://pyatl.org/presentations</a><br><br>Now, if you notice you can click on the video and go to the Google
<br>Video site and you can even download it from there or watch it in a<br>larger size:<br><br><a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3276625123051018943&hl=en" target="_blank">http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3276625123051018943&hl=en
</a><br><br>You can always have the raw source video file available, as a link,<br>but you will reach a much wider audience by using Google Video to host<br>your screencast. Getting framerates, and codecs correct is an art and
<br>a science, as you need to encode video in a specific codec to allow<br>quick searching, etc. Just let Google take care of it, and be done<br>with it. Of course this means people must have flash, but flash is<br>quickly turning into javascript, as a must have technology even for
<br>linux users.<br><br>You can sign up for an account here:<br><br><a href="http://video.google.com/" target="_blank">http://video.google.com/</a><br><br>Finally, you might want to see if you can get the same grok branding
<br>attached to the beginning of core grok developer produced videos. I<br>can help someone come up with a 5 -10 second graphics branding using<br>Final Cut Studio, if the powers that be are interested.<br><br>Noah<br><div>
