Vod report :English: Those who start about Vodcasting.

To what kind of target is the one to cause what reaction delivered in doing Vodcasting? A very important thing it, it is not so this time, and it said talk whether to make. Therefore, so for me though it is thought that there are various opinions if it is possible to read.

First of all, there will be three necessary arrangements also separately for the roughness excluding the data creation by the time the stranger can acknowledge it for Vodcasting.

The first step * requirement selection

Preparation for the second step * server

The third step * listing service registration

A story is told sequentially from the first step.

The first step * requirement selection
..the mind whether see in what environment ..final.... 1) the Movie file format and 2) the delivery method and 3) the compression codec and 4) The main delivery route is assumed.

1) Movie file format
There is not reproducing with all machines in one file format though there is one that animation can reproduce such as PC, iPod, cellular phone, PSP, Game Boy micro ZEN of + PLAY-YAN micro and CREATIV, and players in eye River a lot. For instance,If WMV is chosen, neither the cellular phone nor PSP are good though PC and ZEN are OK. Condition. Therefore, it is necessary make to the one that it is possible to reproduce with which machine in this average, and to squeeze it. Moreover, because both special parts are included in both parties, it is not compatible though PSP, the cellular phone or either Movie is MPEG-4 form. The selection which to be chosen is here. In addition, there are a form to be able to pick and a form that cannot be done in the service of the index such as iTMS. The file format that can carry out the road of my ideal considering circumstances about there is chosen.

2) Method of delivery it
Does the streaming reproduce? Is download waited for? One may pass or that doesn't want to pass the Movie file to the other party as a viewpoint. Or that wants to be made to be shown only has to make it wait in another without waiting for the person who sees.

3) Compression codec
Do you make the image quality and the compressibility performance high, latest codec H.264 or make it to codec MPEG-4 to which or is widespread?

4) The main delivery route
Do you download with PC, move to a portable equipment such as PSP or correspond to download by or wireless LAN?

■

･What chosen by the average

1）
Movie file format: QuickTime. mov
Environment seen directly: PC､PSP､
Environment seen in converting soft use: Cellular phone
(The animation file for PSP will deliver the file set that PSPWare and Keitaidougahenkankun convert. )

2）
Method of delivery it: Download. However, waiting time is short in the first start setting.

3）
Compression codec: MPEG-4

4）
The main delivery route: Cable by way of PC USB and wireless LAN

Remarks: Let's do Vodcasting. H.264 that PSP took in advance has come off from choices with the chance to think the charm of seeing animation in PSP, and wireless LAN though it is because of the strike.

■

･Reason not chosen

1）Movie file format
Whether iTMS picked it up became a key. It was thought that being recognized to the index service was very important because there was no extension if it did not know the breaking out conduct oneself of Movie. Therefore, . Wmv.avi and Flash were removed. Moreover, because it is not possible to reproduce by portable Movie player PSP who has appeared on the market really and widely, Flash is removed from choices.

2）Method of delivery it
Let's have taking to the previous reproduction environment by way of PC. Data should remain in PC. Moreover, the link doesn't do directly, and pass the metafile in the streaming delivery though should be linked directly with the download file so that it is recognized as Vodcasting. If iTMS is used, this method cannot be adopted.

3）Compression codec
The codec of Movie became MPEG-4 because of the animation reproduction software and PC OS that corresponded now. If it is the latest environment of Mac and Win, it turns out that there are about 30 percent person not thought that it is it in H.264 though it is unquestionable. It was still judged it was premature. If the situation permits because H.264 is a high performance, I want to do here. 4) The main delivery route The conclusion was led during the selection of the Movie file format.

■

Preparation for the second step * server
It doesn't have the server and there is not knowledge either. Such man (I in a word) spent neither money nor time as much as possible and the examination object was squeezed for the way that was able to be achieved.
It is four of the following to register the user and to try.

1）TypePad

2）Lollipop

3）Hapishot

4）Step server

5）IDisc of .Mac

■

･What chosen by the average

1）TypePad
It is terrible and it easy Chin. It is not necessary to worry because of the file format that the server accepts, and contents are not chopped by the limitation of points a file if it makes it to TypePad.
There is Podcast feeding to provide with RSS2.0 to which Podcast can be delivered, and to recognize it to iTunes etc. at once, too. When having actually used it, neither the knowledge of RSS nor the knowledge of the server are needed if there is delivered something. At 420 yen a month, it is liberated from most troubles that coil round the delivery.
It was clumsy, and I jumped at here because it liked easy one, and started up this Brog at once.
I likes it very much.

Such a person : by all means!
･It doesn't have the server that without any mistake corresponds to Podcast.
･Hey there is no corresponding file format ..not boiling of the MIME typing often...
･RSS of Brog used now is 1.0.
･How to treat Feed Burner is not understood well.
･RSS2.0 cannot be stricken soon. It doesn't know the method of the installation well.
･Moreover, it is troublesome to be able surely to write the link variously.
･Even if money is somewhat paid, it is OK if becoming easy.
･Even if Brog for the delivery is put up, it is OK.

2）Lollipop
It is cheap, and initial corresponds to various animations and the voice files. Therefore, it is not necessary to do it "MIME Type is done very so" and troublesome.
Moreover, if it becomes the nature. The number of correspondence files can be increased by raising the htaccess file. Nothing but one though the upper bound of the capacity of the file that can be improved can cry over 5MB very much because of the part.

■

･Reason not chosen

3）Hapishot
It ties to the page for not the link to the file soon when the link is put from Brog to animation but the reproduction.
Then, it seems not to be admitted that there is Podcasting by iTMS and the feeding conversion service though Hapishot does the streaming reproduction service ..this.. and ..taking.. Omo cracks. The capacity of the file that was able to be improved at a time thought that as much as 30MB was also poor. It is felt a large capacity now.

4）Step server
Though it is cheap.
When inquiring about the correspondence of the animation file for oneself. The htaccess file is asked by setting it up and it cracks. . A rough procedure has been sent , saying that "It is not possible to set up by this, and you may teach a concrete procedure" when returning it because the one like the outline of the htaccess file has been sent.
The following sentences were affixed to the procedure memo. "Please study how to put it and how to up-load the name seeing a book and other site. " "Please get over the test, the verification, and the device repeatedly there though the error might occur (free translation). "
It is easy somehow ..service.. ..coming.. and continuation of the error like the prophecy of the other party when setting it up while Mucaing and attaching.
Please accept the animation file.

5）IDisc of .Mac
I thought that 9,800 yen in the annual sum were strong. (When saying and the streaming server will be arranged to make sure, it is very high. ) That expense shall not be too strapping to operate it with the pocket money.It is higher than other four even if it averages to the monthly average.
As for iDisc, the way understands and Sappari has not been understood when thinking that the link is put from Brog on the outside of it though the storage of the file is easy Chin. .The same place is made to come round in conspiracy and in conspiracy even if it searches in Mac and it turns. .... when it is already good.

Remarks:
The server is expected of peer to peer very much. PC of the participating person becomes a server or became a client, and a lot of hurdles like MIME Type, the capacity of the file, and the forwarding amount limitation, etc. disappear. The load is distributed by using the P2P network when feeding a typical file to the listing of Vodcast, seeing in Web a browser, and downloading it. Such shape is an ideal.

■

The third step * listing service registration
There are two roads about listing.

1）When Brog used corresponds to RSS2.0 and Podcast. It belongs to this when TypePad is used by the second step.

2）When you prepare RSS corresponding to the listing service at one's own expense. The conversion service such as Feed Burner is used, and the strike method soon. I was aiming at here first.

There is an advantage respectively.
Time must not hang needless to say in 1).
It ends when the file of Podcast and Vodcast is up-loaded. It is only called that the Podcast feeding is registered in the tool such as iTunes.

2) can suppress the cost to cheapness.
It seems to be able to keep free depending on the way. However, because some work will be done for myself, it is necessary to know the method.
As for the way, jet * Daiske's "Writing of RSS2.0 for easiness and Poddocasteng" serves as a reference very much, and it is recommended.

Well, ..goodness.. conclusion has come into view when delivering it meeting what requirement.
By the way, it referred to this book for handling and the knowledge of the file translation software for PSP.

An operation screen and a set value survived and publishing survived though the book review was not good.
