Kommentarer till First report from our VIDBlaster experiments av Richard Gatarski

Hi ElJay,
Thanks for the comments and questions (a lot ;). Well, that post is a year old and since then we have done more - and amazing stuff, see http://www.westreamu.se

I suggest you dig into and search around the Vidblaster forum at http://forum.vidblaster.com You will find answers to most of your questions there.

I am going on vacation right now and can’t answer you in detail. A few shoerties:

- You can zoom some webcams (like the WebCam Pro), but they are not perfect. A somewhat more expensive, but much better alternative are PTZ cameras (like the Vivotek PTZ71xx).

- To get PPT slides into the show we use cheap VGA-video converters, and then another video to USB converter to get the signal into the Vidblaster PC. Ephipan offers some more straightforward alternatives, but at a higher price.

- You can use any software (e.g. Gimp) or Web apps (like pixlr.com) for overlays, as long as it can generate png with transparency.

- In the forum’s download section you can always download the latest (beta) version of Vidblaster. The demo is always the Professional version. Check out Vidblaster.com for the differences between versions.

Good luck, and hope to see you in the forum ;)

Hi, Richi !

… I am swapping since couple of weeks into the thematic WebTV (after more than 4.5 years pure radio shows) and just “gambling” around with VidBalster. So I found your posting here. Great job this “live docu”. Cool…

VidB is an amazing tool compared what regular TV stations and media prouction companies use for such documentaries. We really can thank guys like Mike to design such unbeatable software which is total intuitively usable. (Rec.: For Tricaster ( http://www.newtek.com/tricaster/ ) you’d have to pay between 14-25,000 US bugs.)

Could you specify your equipment (and financial budget) pls ? Which cameras and mixer you used? I just think about to use a HD web cam (e.g. LogiTec WebCam Pro 9000) for pure Talk shows via WebTV (e.g. streamed “live” to Livestream.com ) connecting my guests from India via Skype. - Can you zoom in and out your cameras via Laptop or do you need regularly and always a camera man as your brother did this job ?

As you described you got the slides of SUN directly “inline”. Accoustically I didnt understand what “switch” / interface you used for? Where to buy ?

And how to make the Video Overlays. I think about to use cost free GIMP (open source concurrente to Photoshop).

Last but not least, what version of VidBlastger you used ? I installed 1st the Trial version of Home edition. Is that enough as there exist three other levels (studio, professional and broadcaster).

So fare… Hope I do not bother you with my tons of questions. Many thank’s for your great teaching… total inspiring. Take care… hope hearing from you.

Warm regards from North Germany, Hamburg
ElJay

Johan - Faran �r inte fr�mst att de missar att l�ra sig, utan att de missar att analysera och v�rdera sina k�llor. du kan vara hur bra p� att hitta information och kombinera den till en l�sning, men om du inte kan avg�ra om k�llan �r trov�rdig riskerar du att komma fram till helt felaktiga slutsatser…

(sent svar orsakat av att jag precis fick denna l�nkad :) )

Ha ha! Bra po�ng. Kanske man kan g�ra ett pedagogiskt grepp av det, i skolan? Dvs att utveckla det listskapandet till en konversation om socialt samspel och vad som styr vem som hamnar var p� listorna.
Sen har du ju tex Snyggast.se - h�r ligger vi i l� ;)

Dear RIchard. Met you at Species2010 and I’m sorry not to ask you a “simple” question after your presentation. How do you see the future of old values like communicating face 2 face, enjoying the companionship with fellows in eg. sports clubs, meeting with friends at the cofeehouse and more, when our way of communicating and social gaming/interaction becomes and online relation? What happens to our social needs we fundamentally need by interacting with people (touch, feel, see… ) when we get more and more seperated?

Do you share any of these concerns or thoughts?

Linnea, nog �r det intressant - f�r det �ppnar upp f�r mer. Men det d�r med “att st� emot f�rbansligandet” f�rst�r jag inte (heller).
Det �r nog en kul kontrast med Elza Dunkels syn p� “barn” (som begrepp och social konstruktion), som jag delar.

Kommentarer till Stockholms Skolwebb suger skitsurt av Roger Rapp

Roger Rapp — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 17:54:46 +0000

S� hade de en d�lig dag igen ….
Tekniskt fel redan vid inloggning imorse.
Supporten �ppnar f�rst kl. 8.00.
Fr�nvaroanm�lan vill man ju g�rna g�ra innan.
N�r jag kommer hem g�r det visserligen att logga in, men alla sidor som har med fr�nvaro att g�ra f�r man ‘403-Permission denied p�.’ F�rgrundsf�rgerna �r mycket smafullt valda till mycket ljust gr�, samt mycket ljust gult p� vit bakgrund. Preciiiiis s� att man kanske ser vad det st�r.
Jag f�r svaret fr�n supporten att jag ska v�nda mig till skolan f�r denna typ av fel.
Inte bara Skolwebben som suger. Processen �r v�l inte s� imponerande heller?
Vi f�r�ldrar ska allts� h�lla reda p� vem som hanterar vilka fel.
N�hepp, jag t�nker INTE pyssels�tta mig med det.
