Introducing TL! Videos

Recommended Posts

Great effort. Can you make it in downloadable shockwave file format so that some of us can download it and view them offline? When I get connected to TL Video site, my internet speed drops down to 10 KB/Sec. You know how painful it is to watch video on that sort of internet connection.

Thanks and regards

R.S.I.

Could you provide a bit more information on this, or is this available elsewhere on the site?

 

Are these videos resident here? If so, what formats and file sizes do you accept? If not, where can they be posted?

 

What's the typical file size for these videos? Is there a limit, or does it not matter?

 

What programs do you suggest for creating these videos? Are there any decent ones that are low-cost or free?

 

Why all the cookie requests when entering the video section? Are they really necessary?

Hi Db,

 

The videos are hosted here on our server. The following formats are allowed: (3gp)|(mp4)|(mov)|(asf)|(avi)|(flv)|(wmv)|(mpg)|(mpeg)|(mpeg4)|(xvid)|(divx)|(3gpp)

 

The maximum file size per file is 100mb. The cookies are necessary as we had to integrate the video system into the forum system.

 

Regarding video recording software, I would recommend camtasia studio by www.techsmith.com. I havent experimented with other recording software so I dont know of any other ones that are as good. Try the trial first as you will get all the functionality.

James beat me to it...but I can add some info...

 

Programs to create videos (capturing video from the screen):

 

Snagit has a video screen capture function, its a basic version of Camtasia, but it works. The latest version of Snagit is a paid product but a prior version is available as a free download from here.

The registration key code is: YW6RC-4YMK6-SZBBD-C2MCW-Q9D96

The business model seems to be, try the old version and if you like it there is a better one you can pay for, hence the free Rego key.

 

Also there is a free, open-source, product called Camstudio. I have tried this and it is very good.

Available from here.

with more info here.

The Camtasia price is a little stiff. The software I've been playing with provides conversion to animated gif, so the file size is much smaller (so far, less than a meg). However, I see you don't allow gif uploads. Any particular reason? You do allow gif uploads to the blogs, but only up to a half meg. Any reason for that, or can it be increased?

Hi Db,

 

.gif files wont work on the video site. I will ask my coder to see if this extension can be added. I also increased the attachment size for .gif files to 5mb.

If file size isn't important, then perhaps adding gifs to the list is not important. But for anyone who's interested in minimum file sizes, it's worth looking in to.

 

Thanks for expanding the gif attachment size.

    • Dear B4 #42, I heard you can't get out of bed and decided you were going celibate and shaved your head and “reconsidered” having children.  If it took Trump getting elected to get you to stop fkn every Dum, Harry, and Dick you meet, we’ll take it.  thx Sincerely just sayin’ zdo PS To all the other girls I loved B4 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVq0ONrSH-Q 😚

    • Date: 12th November 2024. Market Buzz: Trump Trade Impact! “Trump trade” has boosted the US Dollar and US stocks, but Trump’s policies may have less favorable effects on global assets. Trump’s plan to raise tariffs is expected to negatively impact economies worldwide, especially exporters like China. Asia & European Sessions:   Bitcoin Surge! Bitcoin broke $90K, driven by Trump trade once again. Bitcoin is up roughly 110% in 2024, helped by robust demand for dedicated US ETFs, interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and Trump’s cryptofriendly agenda. Crypto market capitalization has exceeded its pandemic-era peak, reaching $3.1 trillion. Traders are betting on Bitcoin reaching $100,000 by year-end, according to data from the Deribit exchange. Open interest — or outstanding contracts — for CME Group Inc. futures for Bitcoin and second-ranked Ether (ETHUSD) scaled records on Monday, a sign of growing engagement by US institutional investors. Asian shares dropped, alongside European and US equity futures, as traders evaluated the implications of President-elect Donald Trump’s policy agenda and potential cabinet choices. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index fell for a third consecutive day, driven by rising Treasury yields amid concerns that Trump’s proposed tax cuts could increase inflation. There are also reports that Trump is considering two individuals for prominent roles in his administration with track records of criticizing China. DAX and FTSE100 are down -1.1% and -0.5% respectively, after a pickup in German HICP inflation and higher than expected UK wage growth dampened easing expectations. Investors await the US CPI report for insights into the Fed’s easing path, as Trump’s inflationary policies may lead to fewer rate cuts. Financial Markets Performance:   The USDIndex continues to rise and is currently at 105.75. It hit a 1-year high. EURUSD drifts to 1.0620 and GBPUSD is in a sell off, currently at 1.2800. Oil prices fell after their biggest 2-week decline, amid a weak demand outlook from China, a stronger US Dollar, and concerns over a potential oversupply. Crude oil has traded within a narrow range since mid-last month, influenced by Middle East tensions, the US election, and OPEC+ output decisions. Gold remains under pressure and is currently at just $2604.36 per ounce. It hit a one-month low, down 5% since Trump’s election victory, as a strong dollar and US equity rotation pressured the metal. Gold’s decline was also technical, breaking below the 50-day moving average, causing funds to cover long positions. Despite recent drops, gold remains up 25% for the year, supported by central bank purchases and geopolitical risks. Always trade with strict risk management.
