In this way the costs and time of

In Europe it is possible to rent the time of satellites without
paying for them all the time. This may be useful to network
programmes for retransmission to local TV stations and collectives.

Introduction to using Open Source Tools for Video Production and

Different Software is used for the many stages of the Video
production process. Depending on what platform you use there are
various different levels of effectiveness and ease of use of the
open source solutions.
This is a section of notes on interpretations of the scope and
ease of use of different Free and Proprietary software.

Encoding Video for the
Internet
Before putting a film on the internet you have to transform it
into a special format that can be easily transmitted along wires.
This process is called encoding. it can be very complicated, but
there are people who can advise if you get stuck, the first thing
you need is to download and install a software programme which will
encode the video format you have into the video format that will be
suited to your online distribution needs. There are a few popular
ways of encoding video using commercial solutions but here are some
free options
Applications

starting point.

How
to Make a Video podcast
What is a podcast?
Why create one? Video podcasts are a good way to distribute your
Video. They can be seen in programmes like i-Tunes, Democracy
player and Fireant. If you get the format of you video file right
they can also be downloaded onto portable devices. They can also be
featured on other people's websites often as a list at the side of
their pages. This is called syndication.
What do you need to do to make one?
Get you audio or video ready for the internet. (see encoding
notes)

You
will then get a page where the link to your file is displayed.
blogger.com
You can create a blog quickly and easily at blogger.com - A blog
is a simple web page which is diary like in format listing the
latest posting first (just like a podcast does).
In the settings panel of blogger.com you can adjust the
formatting tab so that you can include a link with every post. In
the link field we need to paste a link to the uploaded media file
on achive.org.
feedburner.com
blogger.com creates an RSS feed for all your entries, but it is
not a Podcast. You can't use a programme like iTunes with it yet.
We need to use a service called feedburner to change the feed into
a Podcast.
To do this we need to click an option on the feedburner settings
called smartcast.
Using a Video Content
Management system
Ourvideo CMS is a Media content management system running on
MySql and php. It is aimed at community and low budget groups and
can help them achieve their aims at a lower cost in the following
ways. There are minimal changes to the standard server environment
to help groups that don't have access to a high level server
administration resources.
Loud Blog
website
Loudblog is a flexible and easy-to-use Content Management System
(CMS) for publishing media content on the web. It automatically
generates a website and multimedia distribution via Podcasting.
Loudblog needs to be installed on a webserver and requires
systems administrator level skills for install and setup. It will
allow you to host your own website with integrated audio and video
distribution support.
You can upload your audio/video via ftp, via web forms, by
fetching external links - thus hosting them on your server, or
linking to external files.
It is designed for audio, and creates a flash audio preview.
This is also possible with some video files. So the web
presentation of your media is pretty good. It takes the form of a
blog.
Disadvantages:
- This is set up for audio files, so while the podcasts do work
for video files, you get unsuitable messages on the wen pages, like
"listen now"
- The RSS podcast doesn't have images associated with it yet. It
has no "media:thumbnail" element in the feed.
Word Press
CMS
The wordpress content management system has a very simple
approach to podcasting.
How It Works
- Create audio or video that you want to share (usually MP3 or
MP4)
- Upload the file to a server
- Link to the file in a post in your weblog
- Wordpress automatically Includes a link to the file in your
RSS/Atom feed
- Listeners "subscribe" with podcast client application to your
RSS/Atom feed and download new files automatically.
WordPress creates all the necessary links for you!
Disadvantages: Archive.org can be used to host podcast audio
files but archive.org uses re-directs on the file paths it
publishes - this confuses WordPress, and consequently, the Podcast
publication fails (missing enclosure tag error).
To avoid this error, if you are hosting your audio files on
archive.org, you need to add a Custom Field called "enclosure" and
paste the full URL for the mp3 file in the Value field.

Then there is
an alternative. If you have ftp access to your website. You can
enter the details of each podcast item into a programme called rss
editor and it will alter and upload the RSS file you need to have a
podcast. There is tutorial below.
Unfortunately the Media RSS specification used by Democracy
player and Yahoo isn't the same as the Podcasting specification
used by iTunes. The solution is to avoid things that will make your
feed unreadable in either.

Content Management Systems and related tools for Video on the
Net
Plone is one system that can be used, Engage Media are working
with other plone developers on multimedia aspects of this set of
tools. A sample site for this is Engage Media
http://www.engagemedia.org/Drupal is another popular content management system (CMS) that
can be used to manage your video online. An example of a site that
uses Drupal to manage video is Ourmedia, although the code to that
doesn't seem to be published, see
http://drupal.org/node/19904Some work has been done on aggregation sites which really
maximises the capacity of Drupal to import and manage RSS or RDF
data.
One example of this is the V2V site which outputs data in RDF
form which can then be imported into a CMS.
v2v software pageIt should also be possible in such an aggregation site to search
the contents and the keywords of distributed content by searching
the contents of their RSS feeds or RDF feeds if the information
required isn't contained in the RSS feed. Would a new search tool
have to be written or is there one in existence?
One question that came up at the Transmission 2006 gathering, Is
Media RSS with its category and keyword section enough to create a
shared search tool for distributed content? If so how should we
collaborate on standard categories and keywords?
One idea which was posted to the Media RSS yahoogroup: If Media
RSS included a "group" tag, then partners could tag this with a
shared discreet tag like "transmission" and search capacities could
pick up only entries tagged as transmission.
Subtitles
Subtitles and transcripts are different: a transcript is only
the text of the video, whereas a subtitle file includes the
timecode as well. Subtitle files have a variety of formats (.srt,
.sub, etc.), but they are compatible with each other.
Importance of subtitles in the production/distribution
workflow
It is very important for independent video producers to make
available subtitle files (or at least transcripts) when they are
distributing their work. Furthermore, it is highly beneficial for
online video distribution projects to include an option to upload
subtitles/transcripts with the video files, even as a way to raise
awareness on the issue. Without a subtitle file in the original
language, it is much much more difficult to translate a video,
which highly limits the possibility of its distribution.

This is a suggested workflow that would make translation of your

which is that each transcript then has to be timecoded for each
