Isn't it unfortunate that !OggCamp publishes the videos of the talks on a site with flash only, that wont let you DL other than flash?
-
@maloki You could always host them yourself. :-)
-
-
looks like a job for ffmpeg
-
@dickturpin well vimeo would probably be better than blip in this regard.
-
@dickturpin you saying it'd be in less of one place on vimeo than blip?
-
@laurelrusswurm ogg is only audio though ;P
-
@maloki No, I don't care where it's hosted or the format. I bet there's loads of Photo's on people own websites others and I have not seen.
-
@maloki You can use Ogg Theora for Video ;-P http://www.theora.org/ /cc @laurelrusswurm
-
@maloki ogg theora is a video format;
-
@maloki there used to be a wonderful site called !tinyogg that allowed people who didn't use flash to convert youtube videos to ogg theora
-
@laurelrusswurm, now I just feel bad for the suffering that was caused by relying on the site. :) What's wrong w/YouTube's HTML5?
-
@osamak it requires being tracked by Google's cookies or accounts AFAICT
-
@lxoliva, it does require cookies but it's easy to allow them for one session only. cc: @laurelrusswurm
-
@osamak Suffering? What suffering? It made it possible to download free conversions, which i could then host for my blog. #nobrokenlinks

@osamak for instance here: http://ur1.ca/2n1n7 or http://ur1.ca/2hvkp or http://ur1.ca/2hbea or http://ur1.ca/2ecir or http://ur1.ca/27pa0
-
@maloki ogg (vorbis) is audio, ogv (theora) is video
-
@osamak if you'll look at the last one you'll see that the 2nd video which had been embedded has disappeared http://ur1.ca/27pa0 but...
-
@osamak ...because of the conversion/hosting I did, the content is still accessible. (I don't know about you but I hate lost blog content)
-
@osamak if you promise me everything in flash will be converted to html5 i wouldn't have a problem; plenty of content will be lost :(
-
@laurelrusswurm, I mean, TinyOgg's never a permanent solution (e.g. videos expired in 48 hours), but it seems that some relied on it.
-
@laurelrusswurm, Google says it will. It's now possible to embed HTML5 videos (by embedding an <iframe>) instead of Flash <object>.
-
@osamak There is still much unconverted YouTube video; I often go follow links to find they don't work.
-
@osamak The last time i attempted to put an Iframe on one of my Wordpress.com blog it was stripped out. #notallowed
-
@osamak Wordpress self-hosting software also strips out iframes sometimes ("identica share" button i use on my serialization blog is iframe)
-
@laurelrusswurm, it's possible to write "[youtube http://www.youtube.com/....]" and it will embed HTML5 <iframe> if enabled by visitor.
-
@laurelrusswurm, I rarely see them, but whenever I do, I use youtube-dl to watch them locally.
