Re: State of the Org - 10-13-10
All of the anime convention AMV contests I've seen, if they even have audience voting at all (Anime Weekend Atlanta is one major convention that doesn't), seem to want to show the videos and have the audience vote on them at the conventions themselves. That way the videos get a proper big-screen treatment, and only the people who actually pay to attend the con get to see them in that format (and vote).dazza1008 wrote:I don't know the requirements of AMV competitions in general, but at the very least, I think they are looking for places equivalent to YouTube where they can just direct people to view them. I know that what we have could cut the cheese (i.e. if people were to create accounts, and actually enter the comp by submitting here).
Well, if you donate and upload your videos to the LOCAL server, you can embed your videos in other webpages, yes.dazza1008 wrote:3) embedding possible?
Wait, what? If the organizers (or anyone else) are uploading the videos here, then anyone can download them to HDD -- that's pretty much the default way of viewing videos here; streaming (the PREVIEW option on some videos) was only added in recent years. One reason people have given me for putting their videos on YouTube and not on the Org is BECAUSE it's harder to steal videos on YouTube (is it even possible at all if you disable embedding?).dazza1008 wrote:5) another reason for organisers to post entries here is because some participants might not want the original available for download because of possible stealing OH NOES

Totally possible, there are loads of sites and programs that offer downloading in mp4. Once it's streamed, it's practically downloaded somewhere on your PC and it's just the matter of grabbing it.Scintilla wrote: (is it even possible at all if you disable embedding?).

Re: State of the Org - 10-13-10
I asked because the only such sites and programs I ever spotted couldn't grab videos that didn't have embedding enabled. In any case, it's still one more hoop to jump through than we have here.Nya-chan Production wrote:Totally possible, there are loads of sites and programs that offer downloading in mp4.

I have a browser plugin that does it. Works on everything.Scintilla wrote:I asked because the only such sites and programs I ever spotted couldn't grab videos that didn't have embedding enabled.

It works on everything on Youtube - the site mentioned initially framing this exchange of the validity of putting your stuff there to "not have it stolen."godix wrote:Works on any site?

Look, I know most of you already know this. But someone's gonna have to take action on the coding and org's redesign. So far, If I'm not mistaken, no progress has been made really, contribution for ideas has been going smooth but nothing more.
I think if some of us pitch in money, we can hire some coders and graphic designers to get the job done.

How, exactly, do you know nothing's been done? You do realize the site has extra code test server space that isn't public facing...Kaream wrote:Look, I know most of you already know this.

Because, you know, the best thing we can do is do all the changes and coding on the running installation of the Org ;xBasharOfTheAges wrote:How, exactly, do you know nothing's been done?
