Apple posts video podcast tutorial

I had the same problem. iTunes 6.0.1 is not recognizing my video podcast even though i've used QT Pro to convert the original avi file to m4v format, uploaded it to my server, and also pinged it on Feedster. What am I missing? iTunes recognizes .mov files i've put up on my server, but my ipod-video-5G ignores them. That doesn't do me a lot of good when i want to have video podcasts on my iPod!

hey, im trying to figure this rss stuff out. can anyone help me? i tried setting up a blog and uploading the .m4v file and it wouldnt recognize the format (i didnt see a notice saying they support it, but apple listed their service so i tried it). i do have online webhosting space and a .com. i set up a seperate package on my domain and tried submitting the url to Feedburner. didnt work. if its possible to upload the .m4v files on my own .com hosting space let me know please. and how can i set up the rss information for the link? thanks.

Also wondering how video will look on this Palm and how web browser/wifi hold up!

And you sobered up in 4 minutes? :-)

sorry about typos and spelling - I was a little drunk at the time

I won't be doing any video podcasts until Apple sorts out its podcast submission process. I an d meny other people have made podcasts and submitted them to iTunes, only to wait for months with no listing on the service, and no way to find out what is going on. How does Apple plan to increase and support podcasters without an adequate admin system?

The whole idea of these new forms of media are to take advantage of the medium! Podcasts are supposed to do what text can't, video is supposed to do what podcasts can't. This tutorial just gives you a talking head....it is not taking advantage of the medium of video. Video cameras are portable, you don't need a studio, you don't need a computer to film...get a digital still camera that does video, get a video camera and go out and film things, import them into imovie and have a blast making cool content...then just get your butt over to www.freevlog.org and learn all the technical aspects of compression, posting, feeds, etc.....apple really doesn't get video blogs...

I tried this out last night. It looks pretty good, I'm assumming pretty much the same as a show downloaded from iTunes. It took at least an hour, if not longer, to export Tuesday's episode of My Name is Earl on my 1.25GHz eMac, and produced a file that's 106 megs. I'm not terribly impressed with the file size. If the huge original that I can watch full screen with no problems is only about 180 megs, why can't Apple come up with some better compression to get this tiny little thing down a little more?
