I had high hopes for Ourmedia.org but It is still a bit buggy.

I saw there are alot of videos on this site where u can download directly via a link.  Can anyone tell me what site i can use to host videos?  I dont need that much space, and videos are all under 5 megs each.  Btw i dont like the ones like putfile where u cannot download it, you have to view it in an html page

Also, does anyone know a free converter that can convert .mov videos to .mpeg or .wmv without limitations- in example, only converts 60% of file or ads a banner onto the video

http://www.ukmania.org.uk/upload/ works well

I'd suggest www.jugglethis.net. You can host massive videos there if needed (some around the 100mb mark!) at no cost to you. Tom Allen is providing the service, so a big thanks to him for paying for it all.

... does anyone know a free converter that can convert .mov videos to ... .wmv ...

now why on earth would you want to do that?

TMPGEnc, but you will need to download an additional plugin to convert .mov files.

JuggleThis.net is your best option for juggling video hosting.

Pretty much unlimited bandwidth, so no need to worry about file size

Sorry for bringing up an old topic but I was wondering about hosting/mirroring diabolo videos on a p2p program like ares to save time rather than having people chase round the internet for diabolo videos. anyone interested?

[Shawn Fumo]

DC++ can work well for sharing files as a group (though someone has to run the server for it). Though if you want to prevent people sharing all their porn and stuff, would need to assign passwords to people and such so you could kick them off if needed.

There's also Grouper (which has the advantage of working through most firewalls and such), but it is only for windows.

There's also bittorrent of course, but that is better for files that'll start super-popular and then die out. It isn't very well suited to keeping archives of small files online indefinitely.

For other file sharing things like kazaa and winmx, they tend to work by popularity so it'll be difficult for anyone to find stuff like diabolo files that have limited interest.

If anyone did use a p2p program don't use kazaa it's now full of worms, viruses and fake files avoid it at all costs. I would use ares as it gives more chance of a connection and faster dowload speeds. Plus if we got say all the people on diabolo.ca the download speed (In theory) should be huge.

[Shawn Fumo]

Luckily, no yo-yo players seem to have found jugglethis.net yet, or else he's not letting them upload.  The guy who's hosting my site (hosts many yo-yo sites for free) had to throttle his bandwith (and charge for unthrottled) because he was going through terabytes of transfer a month at one point....

BTW, if you have all the rights to what is in your video (like you're using creative commons licensed music), you can upload files to archive.org. Aren't the fastest in the world, but I don't anticipate they are going anywhere since they have a lot of grants and such. Ourmedia.org is really just a fancy interface that uses archive.org as its back end. So you can bypass Ourmedia if you don't like how they do things.

max. Filesize: 15.63MB

I just noticed the stuff lately with the large workshop video. I wanted to mention that Archive.org worked well for me for a recent 35min yo-yo instructional video I created. Look here:
http://www.archive.org/details/ShawnFumoWristMountProject

As you can see, the total between the three different versions of the video is over 650megs. The speed for downloads seems pretty reasonable, and was able to direct link the files from my site.

Basically, if you create an account with them, can either upload via ftp or the Creative Commons publisher tool (for the Open Source Video section). Then on the lower left of the final page, you can Edit Item to modify the meta info. or check it out to add or change more files.

The main thing is just to be able to own the content. I'm not sure how strict they are, but you might get shot down if you had regular big-label music for a video. But if it was something like the workshop, or creative commons licensed music or something, probably would be ok. Took a day or two for my original upload to be approved, but was easier to upload the other versions after that..

I just mention because Bittorrent is good for right now, but it'll die out eventually and then it won't be online anymore. Maybe that site would be good for long term storage?

Shawn, in a perfect world, bittorrent would be the perfect solution. you can see my attempts on this board..

in short, people just can't do BT. i love BT to the max, but it seems to reach the largest audience, you need direct download of some sort.

[Shawn Fumo]

Well, I do think BT can be a good solution, especially for large popular files with a limited life-span. The main problem is long-term access, though, since if someone comes here a month from now, it doesn't seem likely that it'd still be seeded. They could ask for someone to seed, but then that gets into issues of perhaps many people asking for old stuff to be seeded.

Then again, it seems like at least one tracker now has a "server seeding" feature, which would be the best of both worlds. That way you really cut the bandwidth at the beginning, but the server can still serve it out later on if needed.

But I wouldn't say your experiments have been unsuccessful. It sounds like several people have been able to d/l the files via BT and some of those learned to use BT for the first time, which could be helpful to them in the future. Remember that this isn't a massive community, so even if only a couple of people grabbed the video, you might not have had all that many more from a direct download.

Anyway, hopefully the workshop is still up so I can grab it.
