It’s easy to be long-winded on the Internet. We’re pretty much encouraged to say whatever we want, write whatever we want, and do whatever we want. This can be great, but the attention span that a lot of people have isn’t necessarily going to enable them to stay focused on your content for hours or [...]

Having your phone or other device lying flat on your desk isn’t a good idea. You either have to hover over it to see the screen, or prop it up. Standard prop stands are stiff, and inflexible. You put the gadget in them, and hope you can see it properly. With a Gadget Beanbag Chair, [...]

I have been using Webcam Max for quite a bit now to do videos, live streams and the like. I will say it has the best options of any client out there for Windows. With later versions, you can of course quick switch between sources, have as many Picture-in-Picture sources (PIP SOURCES) as you want, [...]

Hard to Distinguish Multiple Interfaces, or HDMI for short, is quite possibly one of the most difficult to understand standards in the High Defenition era. Ok, ok so HDMI doesn’t stand for “Hard to Distinguish Multiple Interfaces” but it’s still confusing. Thankfully the smart folks at CEPro have put together an article explaining just what [...]

Google has introduced a new layer to it’s Google Earth product, video. You can now overlay YouTube video to locations on the earth. This gives users the ability to watch video associated with a place. Assigning geographic information is called geo-tagging, generators of YouTube videos can do this.
The idea of geo-tagging is [...]

With any luck, this will work to benefit Sony as they sure could use some success in the Blueray world right now.
Sony has announced that Click, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, and Black Hawk Down will be the first Sony films released on 50GB dual-layer Blu-ray disc. Although Blu-ray discs have [...]

Google Video, iFilm, MySpace, Current TV, YouTube and all the hundreds of similar video sites all have one thing in common - making it difficult for you to archive the movies they host on your local machine for later playback. In some cases this is by design, but mostly it’s the nature of using Flash [...]

I like the idea that YouTube is shooting for here, however I do have some concerns being they are struggling to keep their bandwidth bill from over taking them. Seriously, I think that they need to re-think the ‘ol business plan here.

NEW YORK — You can now bypass your computer completely to share your [...]

Related to my previous post on creating custom titles for home movies, CamcorderInfo found an awesome tool for auto generating your own church marquee. It saves all the time I took cleaning up a sign and creating a custom logo, although the downside is you don’t get the personalization of using a sign associated with [...]

Adding titles to your home movies is among the most underrated components of visual storytelling. I’ve endured many home movies that could have easily used titles in place of a bad transition where the camera shakes as the videographer moved between rooms during a scene change from the family dinner preparation in the kitchen to [...]

Last I heard, mobile TV has been trying to get a kick start for sometime now. Perhaps this time with a valuable chunk of the UK’s radio spectrum up for sale we will see this become a more viable option for companies across the board?

A valuable chunk of the UK’s radio spectrum will be auctioned [...]

So perhaps mobile TV will be hip before 2012? Some experts believe so, while many others are definitely not going to hold their breath. To be honest, I think it will come down to content. Make it available and easy to access, viewers will come.

The European Commission urged rapid action to harmonise rules and regulations [...]

Speaking on behalf of the folks that I see around town everyday, I have some mixed feelings about Mobile TV. On the one hand I think it is cool and it has sold the concept to me here recently. Yet, when think of Ma and Pa mobile phone users, I am still not completely convinced [...]

Well boom, there it is. The ATI Crossfire Xpress 3200 is ready to rumble and this time it looks like ATI might just be on the right track with this particular chipset. Unfortunately the card you are going to find this chipset on does have one major shortcoming.

Today ATI releases its next generation dual graphics [...]

And you know what? Perhaps you are right. Maybe Nokia’s vision of a mobile TV world will in fact, work out for them in 2008. But they also need to understand the content that powers these phones and these services. Thus far, few actually get it.

Television viewing on mobile phones will reach the masses by [...]

Once upon a time downloading video with a BitTorrent client meant you needed DivX, XviD or one of the other AVI wrapper codec combinations installed on your system for video playback to function properly. While DivX is still wildly popular for HD file sharing, particularly in the television show swapping space, a couple of unlikely [...]

I watch a lot of TV. An obscene amount. I probably need therapy. I recently got a Slingbox, which affords me the ability to stream live and recorded video content to anywhere I have my laptop and a high-speed connection. But that wasn’t enough. Like any addiction, you constantly have to feed it. So my [...]

Recently, somebody asked me to make them a copy of a home movie that they had stored on DVD. I thought this to be simple enough, though. To my suprise it was not what I had expected. First round, I realised that in order for a DVD to play in a DVD player, you need [...]

Hey, looking for the latest info on your smartphone? That’s a trick question because I’m being literal. Now you can be looking at the latest news and info on your smartphone with The Smartphones Show. A 20 minute program that downloads over the Internet, the 40MB file is formatted at 320×240 in [...]

The iTunes Store is a nice place to find video for your iPod but unlike Podcasts, these videos mostly aren’t free. So, where to go to find a selection of free-bees for your little white or black gadget you enjoy watching stuff on? Well at the Pod Guide tv, of course!

In an earlier post, I’d mentioned my recent acquisition of a Slingbox from Sling Media. As promised, here is a more detailed account of my experience with this device.
I picked up the device at a nearby Circuit City. A $50 instant rebate promotion was about to run out, which was what prompted me to take [...]

Speaking for myself, I see Google TV becoming a reality in the near future. It might require a set top box, but that would be OK.

The speculation about Google announcing a Google Cube, which has been summarily dismissed by David Krane, Google’s PR big cheese on his blog. So what will Larry Page talk about [...]

So you just can’t see pushing $2 off of your Visa for a dinky video that will play on the new fifth generation iPod, huh? But you’d still like to at least see how it looks on that new spiffy iPod of yours. What’s a cheap-skate to do? If you dig cars, [...]

I’m starting to see more instances of RMVB format files in places where DivX and XviD long dominated the download distribution space. Particularly among Anime and Chinese language movie sites, RMVB is replacing DivX as a low-bitrate small file size alternative to DivX, because it looks better and because the file sizes are smaller. Considering [...]

While the vast majority of video recording is now digital, there are still plenty of recordings stored in analog formats and I know a handful of people who refuse to give up their Hi8 camcorder in favor of DV. If you still record in analog, or simply want to transfer your analog recordings to a [...]

I recently spent some time testing one of Sony’s Handycam DVD models to see what the recording and editing experience is like from a user perspective. Recording isn’t much different than recording with a MiniDV camcorder. The editing experience leaves much to be desired. The Handycam units store video in a VOB file format, ready [...]

I told you about TiVoToGo and its addition for the iPod and the PSP Monday. I’m sure many questions are swirling in your techno-head of yours about this and I’ve got great news!

The good folks at CNET have put together a little eight question FAQ for you. It’s not everything you’ll ever need [...]

If you’ve ever downloaded a video from the Internet and gotten a great video picture but no audio the obvious solutions are quickly exhausted. Yes, my speakers are plugged into the correct port on the computer. Yes, my speakers are turned on with the volume above zero. Yes, the sound on my computer is on, [...]

If you’re interested in video blogging, you probably already know about Rocketboom. You might not know there’s someone besides the show’s host, Amanda Congdon, making those daily episodes happen. Andrew Baron is Rocketboom’s producer and key influencer in decisions about distribution formats and the various other behind-the-scenes aspects of producing a daily show. We talked [...]

Oh this is too wild. This is like a PVR add-on for Mac users, right? Well, not exactly. Actually, it is more for the iPod user and even then, for the ones wanting video on the go.

EyeTV picks up some competition today, with Hauppauge’s release of myTV.PVR. The name grates, but the $149 price is [...]

If you are looking for Media Center alternatives, then this article might just point you in a whole new direction with two very specific examples.

Killing two birds with one stone. Saw two interesting home DVRs, kind of media-center-ish, with some cool features.
DigitalDeck is a push/pull media system. Let me explain. You have a central server [...]

Oh now this is just too wild! Yup, according to the post from Engadget, Apple has a plan for the newest incarnation of the iPod. Chances are you will not guess it in a million years. Well, unless you keep reading of course…

You’ve got to love Apple. Crazy like a fox they are. Oh sure [...]

Maybe someday. The last time I looked into a Windows PVR I was far from impressed. To be fair though, I will give them another once over here in then next couple of years I think.

The PVR is quickly becoming the way people watch TV. TiVo popularized the idea of a set-top box that lets [...]

OK, I own both a TiVo and a cell phone - now impress me. Seriously though, this new phone from LG with the capability to pause your cell’s satellite TV shows when a call comes in could be a hit. Well, if it ever makes it over here to the West, anyway…

A cell phone that [...]

Any mobile carrier that wants to compete had better get on it. Verizon already has their teeth into the mobile TV market pretty good now.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Verizon Wireless, the No. 2 U.S. cellphone service, plans to start delivering live television to mobile phones early next year using a network being built by [...]

I’ve written several articles recently about embedding MOV files and launching an external player from embedded MOV files to make viewing your movies easier. In general, I find the MOV format to be somewhat imperfect for sharing movies with all viewers because the format relies on your Web visitors to have QuickTime installed. iTunes effectively [...]

Wow! This has to be the perfect TV for the drunk man needing to be in front of a TV when using the washroom. OK, too much information I guess. Still, you have to admit that this is pretty cool!

We always thought the whole idea of spending time outdoors was to commune with nature, to [...]

Better graphic card stability is always a good thing to hear about. And this is definitely true when it comes to the drivers themselves. Well, it looks like Vista may have gotten something right on target in this area. Check it out…

San Francisco (CA) - Graphics drivers developed for Vista, Microsoft’s next generation operating system, [...]

With video blogging increasing in popularity, people are looking for ways to easily post videos on Web pages. Couple that with millions of people trying to connect home movies of their kids with relatives spread across the globe and there’s a sizeable need for easy solutions for online video publishing. Sure it’s important to add [...]

It may not be a pro-level cam, but at least it is not trying to burn discs with the footage you are taking. Still, outside of the brand, I am not all that impressed with the SDR-S100.

Today, Panasonic announced the world’s first 3 CCD SD (secure digital) recording camcorder, the SDR-S100. Calling it “a genuine [...]

Ya, I think that we will definitely see a war - a DVD format war that is. Even though many people still cling onto those old VHS players, a new format of DVD is coming to town, and I will be interested in seeing who ends up becoming the next LaserDisc format…

Chances looked slim that [...]

Interested in encoding movies onto your PSP? Then this is the article for you then my friends!

This week’s How-To is only going to apply to the lucky six or seven of you who’ve managed to already get your hands on a PlayStation Portable, the rest of you will just have keep this one in [...]

If your current DVD burner won’t support dual layer disks or if you still haven’t gone the route of upgrading from CD burning to DVD burning, you might have another option available for high capacity file backup. Instead of backing up to 4.7GB DVD media or the even smaller 800MB and less CD alternative, use [...]

Personally, I think that having an LCD outside seems silly. Then again, perhaps there are some practical applications that I might have been missing here. Eh, whatever. I just can’t see spending the money on it myself. I will however, take one for the inside though…

People should be spending more time outdoors, the only problem [...]

When you’re trying to make home movies look compelling, one of the most important components has nothing to do with image motion. It’s the audio track that ties everything together creating a seamless experience, leading the viewer through the story while letting their imagination fill in the gaps. One slick trick for piecing together movie [...]

Sometimes it’s the little things with a simple solution causing the biggest headache. If you use the official DivX codec when playing back DivX AVI video, a little watermark appears at the bottom of the movie for the first few seconds. Normally, this is no big deal, but it’s occasionally known to get in the [...]

I must agree with most of the comments and the article in general this time around I am afraid. TiVo is quickly becoming TiV-blow.

Looks like the TiVo 7.2 beta is over, as Tivo Desktop version 2.2 was released today. Coupled with the newly released Tivo OS 7.2, transfering video from a PC to your TiVo [...]

While there’s a certain simplicity in using Photo Story for creating slideshows, it doesn’t have the same flexibility with transitions and titling found in Windows Movie Maker. Both of these free apps are great for creating slideshows, but burning the finished movie to DVD requires additional software. Sonic offers a $20 plugin for Photo Story, [...]

This attractive portable media player from Creative is just one such example of how portable media is expected to become a very big deal here in the coming months.

After the reasonably successful launch of its first mobile audio and video (AV) player, the Zen PMC, Creative now attempts to add sexiness to mobility with its [...]

Video capture is a massively resource intensive process. Your PC is writing a continuous stream of data from digital video tape to your hard drive. If your system isn’t prepared for this data dump, it starts dropping frames to keep up with the speed of incoming data. Dropped frames translate to sections of video with [...]

Driver alert, folks. Yes, there is a new driver set for you crazy Vista testers needing LDDM drivers.

Many Windows Vista Beta 1 testers were shocked to find out that their brand new and expensive nVidia GeForce 6-series and 7-series cards were not supported under the new LDDM driver model (and thus not getting all the [...]

As someone who only leaves home for conferences, the value of a Pocket PC is marginal. I don’t need all the input functions. I do want all the convenience of accessing information like my contacts and calendar. And I do want the convenience of having my personal info and some forms of digital entertainment in [...]

Canon makes a great line of digital cameras for still shots. But now that they have just kicked out some new MiniDVs for me to drool over, I might have to take a gander here soon and see what they have to offer.

Following the announcement of their first DVD camcorders, Canon USA today announced two [...]

And so the LCD prices continue their tumble down to reasonable. At this rate, I might just get myself an extra one to have on hand in case my other one fails!

The price of LCD panels for TVs of between 40 to 42-inch are on the slide, meaning big price drops during the rest of [...]

Hey, this sounds like a pretty worthwhile project to me! If this new technology can truly prevent TV smearing, then I believe a lot of future LCD TV owners will be more happy than you could ever know.

A flickering strip light usually calls for a quick replacement, but Philips Electronics figures it is the ideal [...]

You know, these TVs don’t sound half bad! While the prices are pretty good on the sets mentioned below, I still would like to see it come down some more.

They still haven’t broken the 42-inch LCD barrier yet, but Sony’s got two new S-series LCD TVs on the way, the KLV-S32A10, and the KLV-S26A10, at [...]

The coined term; Cellevision, is not just a clever branding name. It also happens to be pretty clever idea as well. As time passes, we will continue to see video on mobile devices surge as pricing and infrastructure become more permanent.

The buzzword in the South Korean mobile phone market is “cellevision,’’ the video-on-the-go services that [...]

Well, I guess it could be argued that this is the next logical step for companies that offer Satellite radio services. I mean, how much more can you expand on their stuff as it is, right? At least by offering data and video they could potentially be offering themselves some new opportunities.

In their most [...]

Playing back movies recorded with your digital video camera by connecting the DV cam to your TV is fairly obvious. A similar feature was available back when consumer camcorders were bigger than my head. Watching a DV movie on your laptop or desktop PC, without first importing the video to your hard drive is a [...]

Alrighty, this has to be the strangest example of videoblogging with a cell phone that I have ever seen. Yikes!

Henrik Schneider points out that an Hungarian woman living in London went to a public webcam in Covent Garden and used her cell phone to record her observations and feelings. A colleague videotaped a monitor displaying [...]

At first pass, this TV in a Box option sounds great! Well, it sure did till I looked at the price tag anyway. I mean, I am just not feeling that, ya know?

For years any fool with a guitar and a PC has been able to make a CD, and now that same fool can [...]
