Quick Poll What format do you want the video podcasts brought to you in.

[goaliebob99]

Quick poll. What format do you want your video podcast to be brought to you in. Im finding that Mpeg 4 and WMVHD have similar compression and the file sizes are roughly the same, But WMVHD is the clear quality winner. I would encode in VC1 but am having a hard time finding a program that would do this type of encoding.

So it is. I want to know what your players can play when it comes to these two formats. I really like WMVHD and it may be the clear cut winner.

Also, what type of player do you use!. You can click on more than one choice. Instance I chose WMVHD and Computer.

Mine will probably be in .mov format since that is the format required by Apple to get the podcast listed in Itunes.

 

[tigerfan33]

Computer.

 

[Peter Parker]

I hope that thsi does not signal an end to the audio podcasts.

 

[TheForce]

Interesting poll. How or why have you locked certain people out from voting?

I hope that thsi does not signal an end to the audio podcasts.

Not at all. This is just to show off some of the stuff from CES.

And I am working on a Surprise for Wednesday Morning. Stay Tuned!

Voting is locked for me. If I could vote, I would vote for MP4 and computer. I use iTunes for just about all audio and video. The only reason I would vote computer is that my ipod does not do video.

I have no idea why it would be locked. If it is go ahead and post your vote and I will get it thanks.

 

[RedSavina]

My votes are declared above.

I do not see any voting buttons. Rather, I see the poll results (I never voted) with the following message at the bottom of the poll section:

"Multiple Choice Poll. Voters: 4. You may not vote on this poll"

 

[riffjim4069]

For some reason I too am getting the "you may not vote on this poll" message. However, I would select both MPEG-4 and WMVHD.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Thats strange why you cant vote. I unfortunately dont have time to look into it at the moment.

 

[qwert1515]

I also can not vote, maybe I have to register to vote here, if so I would like to register to vote in the FTA Party

I also pick Mpeg4 and Computer.

I won't use proprietary formats for such things.
No mater how cute or trendy they are.
No Apple, no Microsoft, no Real, no Flash, nothing from Adobe.
I won't quibble over DivX, though.

However, if a common player like VLC will handle it on my computer, that is something I would watch.

Since I have sufficient bandwidth to enjoy a reasonable quality/resolution show, making up some little 160x120 postage stamp won't be something I'd want to watch twice.

Look forward to seeing what you can come up with. - :up

 

[Uther Pendragon]

Cant vote either. WMVHD or MPEG4.

 

[sidekick]

Any format that would allow for an itunes podcast.

 

[IcEWoLF]

Blu-ray!
J/k
I vote whatever format has the best PQ if its no trouble to you guys.

 

[Frank Jr.]

I'm not allowed to vote either.

 

[jbcheshire]

I can't vote either, but if I could then I would choose whichever format would fit direcetly on my Zune 30gb without having to convert it from something else first...

 

[sidekick]

I commented on this topic. Sure wish I knew why I couldn't vote though.

 

[MisterLas]

WMVHD or MPEG4.
