...and I snapped... a little...

I just wrote this email to my boss who decided to comment on the fact that I had mediafire and craigslist open at the time without asking why (I was waiting for his video to upload so I could view it on the service I was testing).

Enjoy.

------------------

the login credentials for vimeo (which i signed up for):

credentials
- username: [redacted]
- password: [redacted]

this is a basic account.

the video has been upload here. the conversion process, so far will take another 30 minutes. here's a screenshot.



Going on from there, I also found out about a media player called JW Player. You can find out about more about that from the site: www.longtailvideo.com.

As for what I've been reading there:
- General Questions about what this is: link.
- Pro Accounts. This lets you pay as you go for streaming. This may be worth looking into if I can ever reach customer service.
- Pricing

I also checked out what file formats are available on youtube:
- Available formats youtube accepts: link
- Youtube partner accounts can upload longer videos but we don't have time for the application process. Because of that, I was recommended to use Vimeo which I've already detailed above. I'm uploading the video to a basic account. The pro account is $10/mo or $60/yr. Screenshot below.


Just some info in case seeing the mediafire page (where I was downloading a song I like) or things like that was bothering you.

I'll get on the phone with Brandon for a bit and figure out what's going on while I wait for the video to upload to Vimeo.
