Tonight’s Calls

• 8BitJake called to asked which video format he should use for his new video podcast. Our Jake suggested he use Apple’s H263 format. 8BitJake also wanted to know how to create an RSS feed for the Video Podcasts. Chris suggested he use the MTEnclosures Plugin for MovableType by Brandon Fuller. 8BitJake also asked if it was legal for him to include video footage of games hes reviewing. Chris suggested that since he is providing a review it should be fair use but he might want to contact the video game company’s press department to actually get permission and review copies. You can read 8BitJake’s articles in O’Rielly’s PSP Hacks.
• HaroldJohnson called into suggest the 3Ivx Codec and to take a look at FreeVlog. 8BitJake and Harold also started talking about recording video from the PSP and how that could be done. No real solution was reached so if you have an idea you can post it here.
• Jason has a two hour commute into New York City and wanted a recommendation for a Tablet PC to use on the train. Chris really only suggests IBM (Lenovo) Tablets said that IBM is going to be releasing a new higher resolution tablet within a few months and it will probably be worth waiting for. Jason asked IBM’s service and Chris has gone through it twice and hasn’t had any problems obtaining service at all with them.
• usrbingeek asked if there is anything better to run in place of Chitika Ads as an alternative to Google’s Adsense Ads. Chris is using a custom script on his sites that is parsing some of his own RSS feeds and displaying them formatted exactly like Google Ad Sense ads. This way he is at least keeping the users on his site when Google Adsense ads are unable to be displayed.
