publishing question

Tygra · #1 12-11-2007, 06:55 PM

Hi all, have not been here for a long time.

Just wondering if there is a quicker way to publish your pages? and not by having a faster broadband service. On my site I show videos, and for a video that is something like 4 to 5 minutes long, it takes about half an hour maybe longer to publish. So, is there a quicker way? Has Blue voda updated since I last came?

Thanks.

Hi, this is not really to do with BV or VH. You need to do some research on types of file formats that will get the KB's down so you can upload quicker & also let the visitor see the show quicker.
Any image will always slow things down, especially video.

Good luck.

Well my videos are all wmv. I thought that was the quickest format, plus if I do find one quicker, wont the quality of the video be at risk?

Try down loading this bit of free software LINK
Then take one of your files & convert it to flash & see what you think of the results & file size in comparison to what you had.
Its a handy bit of screen recording kit as a bonus.
I think you have to have your file as AVI to start with.

Good luck.

About that Flash Link, I was wondering now in order for someone to see the video though, wont they have to have flash player on their system? If they do not have one, will it guide them to wear they can dl it? I know about anyone who has a computer has windows media player just not sure if they have flash player.

Thank You,
Angie

Most people should have flash, as so many websites are built or have a part of the site with flash now days, it would be unusual for a user not to have it. Most of the BV tutorials are flash.

Hi, i gave you the source file & should of been the .exe file
This vid should help you out. Also do a search on you tube for cam studio, there are some good tutorials.
Sorry about the delay.

Good luck.
PS The help come from this site.

Thanks Collectors Info, but I cant seem to play the file in windows media player after I have converted in to SWF.

Collectors-info · #16 12-18-2007, 12:39 PM

Hi, as far as i know it wont work? the file should be in a flash & not media style of box as its been converted. The flash is just above the media box in BV.

Good luck.

Collectors info, I converted a wmv file to avi on AVS video converter, but when I selected it in cam studio nothing happend.

Tygra · #18 12-19-2007, 01:05 AM

Collectors info, I can hear the sound of the video playing, but I cant see anything, plus the box does not come up with all the options.

Tygra · #19 12-19-2007, 01:23 AM

Sorry to post again, but I tried one video that I converted to flash and it was 100 mb, whereas before on wmv it was about 13 mb, I thought you said flash would publish quicker.
