How to create Video Podcasts?

I Have heard that Garage band can create video podcast. Is there some tutorial on how to create them?

Search GB's Help for "video".

I created a website using iWeb, then published to MobileMe, how can i publish to iCloud?

I created a website using iWeb, then published to MobileMe, Mobile Me is now closed, how can i publish to iCloud?

iCloud does NOT allow you to host your web sites. You can continue to use iWeb but, will need a 3rd party web host to upload your websites to. Depending on the version of iWeb you are using you have a couple of publishing options:
iWeb '09 (3.0.4) you can publish to an FTP Server or a local folder. ( With the built in FTP in iWeb you will end up with an address like "www.YourDomain.com/sitename/Home.html )
iWeb '08 you can publish your website to a local folder
I have been using IX Webhosting for several years with little to no problems "usually the problem was something I did" and they have been quick to solve any issue I have come across. The have plans that start at $3.95 a mo (USD) and their customer service is top notch.

VIDEO PODCAST WITH iWEB-how to deal with huge file size

Hello folks,
I have created simple website for my video podcast. It all works fine, except one problem. I had used just small video clips for now, just for testing... and it takes long time for website to download. I can't even imagine, how slow it will be, when I have full 15 video episodes within my website. So I am wondering, is there any way of how to maintain that cool iWeb podcast structure (with podcast page, entry page and archive page) but not to embed those videos onto the page, but instead, play it externally? I have tried to just post the link to the video clip, but than "publish to the folder alternative" does not create correct rss.xml feed, because it does not know where those clips are. So it doesn't work in iTunes.
Any suggestions? Thanks for any input or advise.

Hello,
unfortunately, no answer yet. The only solution I can think of, is to create a Blog instead of Podcast, then post hyperlink to your video file on entry page. That way, the actual video is not embeded on that webpage, but it only downloads when someone clicks on it. That way you probably won't be able to use subscribe button and RSS subscribe button, but you can create your own Feed with Feed For All software (http://www.feedforall.com), put it on your domain, then post it's URL on your website. So if someone wants to subscribe to your podcast, he will copy that address and paste it into the iTunes or some other podcast readers.
I am a beginner, so this most likely is not the best solution, however, it works so far.
Good Luck

HELP!! "timed out" submiting video podcast through iweb to itunes

I am trying to submit a vid podcast through iweb to itunes and am getting a timed out message. Please help. I have read other posts similar to my problem, and have checked to see that all of my fields are filled in. Don't know what the deal is. thanks for the help.

This is what I received from iTunes help:
Dear Eric,
The iTunes team reviews each podcast submission. Depending on demand,
it may take a week or two before the podcast is published.
I'm sorry to hear you received an error when you tried to publish a
podcast to the iTunes Store. If you are re-submitting a podcast for
review, the iTunes Store may detect the submission as a duplicate and
generate an error message stating that the feed has already been submitted.
You can follow these steps to resubmit the podcast:
1) Change the title and link fields of the RSS feed to something other
than what they are now.
2) Resubmit the podcast feed via iTunes.
3) Once you have successfully submitted the podcast, you can change the
title and link fields back to what they were.
There are several less-common reasons iTunes might have displayed this
error:
* The podcast's RSS feed was not available.
* The podcast's RSS feed timed out.
* The podcast's RSS feed could not be validated.
If you are the podcaster, make sure your podcast is available on the
Internet. Your podcast's RSS feed also should conform to the iTunes
extended podcast RSS specification.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html
If you're still having trouble, consider consulting the Apple
Discussions forums, which have a wealth of information about specific issues.
Click Producing Podcasts in the Pro Digital Production area of this page:
http://discussions.apple.com
If you are not the podcaster, please contact the podcaster and direct
them to our specification.
Thank you for your interest in the iTunes Store. Have a great day.
Sincerely,

Creating video podcast -- movie format requirements

I have QTPro and have used
Export--->Movie to iPod
in order to make the flie podcast-ready. The only problem is that the resultant file is twice the size of the original.
I'm wondering if these specs will also work for a podcast:
Format:
AAC, Mono, 22.050 kHz
H.263, 300 x 225, Millions
FPS:
14.56
Data Rate:
380.49
Size:
300 x 225
Unfortunately, I do not have a v iPod to test on. Does anyone know off-hand if a .mov file with the above specs will work for a podcast?
Thanks!

Hi mmusic, welcome to the discussions!
As you discovered, the default iPod export settings make huge files.
Instead of exporting as .mov, use .mp4 and the H.264 setting, which gives the best quality of video.
BUT, you do need to do something which will make it work on the video iPod, and that's set it to "Baseline." Where is baseline? It's almost hidden in QTPro.
The "Baseline" setting can only be found by doing the following:
Use the Movie to MPEG-4 setting
File format: MP4
Video format: H.264
This will give a "Video Option" button. Change to "Baseline" only
That's the key. After that, any settings can be used, such as data rate, frame rate, etc.
Here's what we use. You can modify to your own liking. We keep our data rate way down in order to make small file sizes.
Do as above.
(Under the Video Options button) Restrict Profile to Baseline
Encoding mode: Best quality (multi-pass)
Video format: H.264
Data rate: 75 kbps
Optimized for download
Image size 320x240 QVGA
Frame Rate: 15fps
Key frame automatic
Audio: AAC-LC
Data rate: 48
Channels: Mono
Output Sample rate: 44.100
Encoding Quality: Best
You can change any of the settings as long as you have the "Baseline" profile checked.
Hope this answers your question.

Software for creating video podcasts on iTunes

I have been playing around with the idea of offering FREE screencasts for Freeway Pro software to show people how to do some cool things. Once I have all my videos made, I would like to know if there is any great software out there which allow me to publish them so they can be made available within the iTunes podcast area.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Publishing a video podcast using a server that is not a .MAC Account

Ok. So I created my own video on my Final Cut Pro. I'd like to publish it to the iTunes Store, but it's asking me for a URL that contains an RSS feed. I don't have a .Mac account but I do have my own with another company. What do I need to do in order to get the url and rss feed and while I use my own server?

For the RSS feed see Apples notes:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html
There is not reason why you shouldn't host the podcast and its RSS file on any server, provided that the server is configured to handle the file format: some aren't where video is concerned and the result is a garbage text file. You need to check this with your ISP.
That done all you need to do is give the iTunes store the URL of the RSS file, which contains the UTRL of the podcast (so you don't need to give iTunes the podcast URTL separately).

Creating slideshow not using iweb tool...suggestions pls

Hi - I'd like to create a slick looking slideshow that doesnt force me to include all the images on the same page as the button. It just needs to be simple and fade to black (like set up photoblog sites so to speak), and without having that iweb generic 'slideshow' button I'd like to have my own buttons.

If you download the latest version
(click here to start download: http://www.hagus.net/files/SimpleViewerPlugin.zip )
it is autoinstaller, you just download it and it will unzip, automatically an installer window popsup and you can install.
Afterwards you open iPhoto, go to File=>Export and that's it.
No need to search any library at all, that was with an old version and yes there is no such folder Plugins directory as it was moved into the iPhoto application package itself... Applications=>iPhoto=>Right click=>Choose show package content=>there is a plugin folder)
But as I previously said there is no need to go through this.
Regards,
Cédric

Video Podcasts show up as Music

Here is my problem:
I downloaded a couple video podcasts from iTMS and copied them to my ipod. They play fine in iTunes, but on my ipod they dont show up anywhere in the video section, only in the music section. When I 'get info' within iTunes they both show as 'Movie' in the Movie Kind field. I am using iTunes version 6.0.2.23 (Windows), Cd Driver 2.0.43, Cd Driver DLL 2.0.3.2, Ipod Video 30G, Version 1.0.
Now for some additional info...
When I am transfering the video to the ipod, I am doing this manually because I use both my home and work machines with my ipod.
Here are some things I have tried:
I first attempted to download the video podcasts using iTMS on my work machine with the result being that the videos showing up under my music and not showing up under video anywhere.
I downloaded a video (not using iTMS) on my work machine and then imported it into the library and then manually copied it to my ipod and it worked just fine.
I attempted to 'Convert The Selection For Ipod' within iTunes (again work machine) for the iTMS downloaded video podcasts and it tells me that the files were not converted because they are already in the correct format. I am wondering if the problem is somehow related to the fact that these files have been downloaded through the podcast subscription? I cant see any reason why, but just throwing some things out there.
I attempted to download the video podcasts using iTMS on my home machine with the same results. As a last effort at this time, I tried the transfer again, and left it to transfer overnight.
Using a different computer (not work or home) I rebuilt Windows XP Pro from scratch. The only thing installed was service pack 2, then installed the same version of iTunes (6.0.2.23) and had a slightly different experience. One of the podcasts in questions did the exact same thing, that is showing up under music and no video playing. The other podcast however ended up showing up and played fine. Now my problem is I dont know if the new machine transferred it correctly or if it was transferred correctly from my home machine the night before (I overlooked checking it before attempting the transfer on the new machine.) I have since then attempted to transfer the problem file on the new machine and it failed again.
Now, has anyone managed to experience and resolve this issue? I know that I should update the ipod to 1.1 and try again, but since I have read about all of the problems with video on the new version I am a little hesitant to do that. Anyone have any suggestions on what ot try next, or am I going to have to bite the bullet and upgrade the ipod?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
Ipod Video 30G Version 1.0 Windows XP Pro

OK, tried some new things, here is the latest update:
I went ahead and bit the bullet, upgraded to 1.1. Deleted the video files from the music section of the ipod and then attempted to manually transfer the files. Still, the same symptoms occured.
Next step, performed a restore on the ipod (using the latest updater (thus retaining version 1.1), then set the ipod to sync with itunes on the work machine. Videos uploaded fine, show up in the Videos section and even play as videos on the ipod! Now we are getting somewhere.
Once I arrived home, I plugged the ipod into my home machine, told it yes, that I wanted to delete the content and attach the ipod to itunes on my home machine. Once all my music downloaded to the ipod, I subscribed to the video podcasts, they downloaded, then I synced the ipod, and they show up in the video section and play as videos. Everything seems to work fine!
My next step will be to disable auto sync and manually add some video podcasts to the ipod and see if it will function then. I will update the thread once that is complete.

How do I 'create video timeline' in CS5?

I have an action which has a step in it which says 'create video timeline' but CS5 says that it can't perform the step, can anyone help?

Umm... has anyone pondered a situation for a days if not weeks on end before mustering up the courage to ask for help and then found the solution minutes after asking? Yeah, this is one of those occasions. Weird.
In my defense, the user interface seems a bit obtuse. When you click "Playlists" and then "Create Playlist" at the bottom of the screen you then must click "Dates, "Folders", or "All Videos" to search for videos. The "obtusity" is that it didn't seem intuitive to me that I then had to search in those other headings after I selected to create a playlist. I assumed that the "Create a Playlist" window that then popped up would include all videos in the watched folders. When you see a video you will find that there is a green circle with a plus sign on the upper right corner. Clicking that will add it to the playlist that you are creating. When you're satisfied with the playlist, give it a name and then save it.
*sigh*
