Advertisement Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 Hi wparsonsgisnet, Take a look here Need to post a video online--Suggestions please. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
cmb_ Posted November 2, 2007 Share #2 Â Posted November 2, 2007 Bill, is this for downloading or viewing only? Will you be the one who posts it to the site or is there another (webmaster) who will do it? If so, what program(s) are you currently using for posting/web authoring? What software for video editing? Â I would suggest an FLV (Flash Video file). Also, QT, .mov, .wmv files can be streamed or progressively downloaded. Whatever source material you have for your final short video can easily be converted to an FLV (or other format for the web). If it is a one-shot deal, I could convert the file for you also. Â P.S. I am no expert in this, just dabble but have successfully posted stuff to the web. Hopefully someone else will chime in with some more useful information.

wparsonsgisnet Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share #3 Â Posted November 2, 2007 Charles, thanks for getting back to me. Â I have made a video for a dancer and she wants to put a section(s) on her website. Â I don't mind if it gets downloaded (imitation and flattery and all). I just want to make a small but viewable video. Â I use Vegas for video editing. I can check to see what the manual recommends for an online style of video. Â Thanks for weighing in.

wparsonsgisnet Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share #4 Â Posted February 11, 2008 This has been solved (actually some time ago) by a suggestion from one of my coworkers to put the video up on YouTube. Â This is lots of fun, easy to do (when I say that, it's *really* true), and free of course. Â If you go to YouTube and search for maximalimage (me) or kelley donovan you can see the result. 160 people have seen this in 2 months -- making Kelley more than happy. Â Totally tubular (pun intended). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prk60091 Posted February 11, 2008 Share #5 Â Posted February 11, 2008 plus with youtube you can embed (sp?) video on your site- but host it @ youtube (use their bandwidth- not yours) in a similar vein- googlevideo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wparsonsgisnet Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share #6 Â Posted February 11, 2008 Paul, thanks for mentioning that. I knew it but the client didn't need to do it and I forgot about it. Â It's a really neat feature, with the video appearing as if from the user's website. Â Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
