It reminds me that we should make it a core reading in the DFLP topic.<BR/><BR/>Your use of iPods is a case in point. I worry about formating a library of resources that may be only usable on iPods. So your videos for iPod would be in the Mpg4 format, but not easily playable on a PDA or device using open standard formats like OggTheora - like my AsusEee here. So we have 3 portable devices (iPod, PDA, AsusEee) we could go further and consider Phones and the like.<BR/><BR/>I think it would be wise, and easy to make your videos available in Mp4, OggTheora, and WMV. These 3 formats cover it the biggest range of players.<BR/><BR/>If you loaded to Blip.tv that service will transcode your formats for you. By using Blip's cross upload to Archive.org service, you go even further, getting your videos into an even greater range of formats. So by uploading to Blip, you'll end up with URLs for all three of these formats that you can list wherever your students go to download your videos.Leigh Blackallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17845313396595646728noreply@blogger.com
