But better leave the “-p preview” away…

Thanks to akf I got the whole pipeline working very quickly, so I’ll produce Oggs and host them here in the future if it’s legally possible. Here’s a corny one that I’ll add later:

All those videos that accumulate inside the home directory slow down my backups, but more Oggs on the Web can have a positive effect.

The SWF specification has been published since 1998. Until today, the specification had a license agreement associated with it, which said that developers could write software to output SWF but could not make software that would “play” SWF files. These license terms were initially included to prevent fragmentation, which most client technologies have experienced. These terms have worked well for Flash Player over the past decade as it now reaches over 98% of PCs on the Web with a consistent runtime, enabling things such as the video revolution we see today across the Web. With this announcement, Adobe is removing this restriction from the SWF specification, as we have established a consistent runtime and we want to ensure the industry can confidently continue to support the SWF format. This will permit the development of applications that “play” SWF files. Adobe will of course remain focused on making the best, most reliable and consistently distributed implementation across desktops and devices.

what i can understand is previously adobe allowed to write put not play SWF/FLV/F4V files. Now they are allowing to write and play without any license restriction. Great job adobe !

I have the feeling that I got your E-mail and replied, but I can’t find it in my archives. I’ll take a look and see if I can manage quick Ogg conversion, with the goal of making more Oggs available where copying is permitted.

Thanks again.

You can download it with the service on:
http://www.downloadyoutubevideos.com/

Then, at least on a current debian lenny system you can convert it like this:
ffmpeg2theora -p preview –sync file.flv

You can try other settings, but you need the –sync option.

see http://www.v2v.cc/~j/ffmpeg2theora/

I used an e-mail address, which I found on your private homepage… after long searching. And I encrypted it with the gpg-key I found there. It was on 14. Apr.
Shall I try to send it again?

For short: ffmpeg2theora can do it now.
