Test moblog with blip.tv

Posted in All, Moblog, Podcast at 3:31 pm by Rodfather

This is a test to see if blip.tv will encode to .m4v and hopefully embed the video in the rss so it’ll show up in the iTunes directory. Hopefully later it can encode to flash automatically and show an inline flash player as well. Right now, I think it’ll only encode to one format if uploaded from a phone.

edit:
Well, it didn’t convert to .m4v for some reason. It used quicktime to play the .3gp file instead. Oh well. I’ll just set flash as the default. I’m pretty sure it’ll embed the .3gp file for use in the iPod directory. We’ll see.

edit2:
Well, it looks like I have to upload a .m4v version anyway and use podPress to do it.
This is because I’m using the feed http://phonyholmes.com/wp/?feed=podcast for the iTunes directory and only posts that use podPress go there.
Also, Blip.tv doesn’t convert to more than one video format. It’s cool that it’ll do flash video for me. That’s one less step I have to worry about.
