If some linux-poser wants to watch our videos on his system, he should be elite enough to find his own solution while VanGavin watches by clicking on the picture of the video. My preferance is to use something like YouTube video embedded in the browser, with a link to a High Definition Ogg version underneath. Because linux-posers like to waste lots of bandwidth on things like a 1080p signal of my face. denrei I’d be hesitant to use a format that would require a non-power user to download and install a player.

There is a program for capturing video and audio called <a href="http://www.fraps.com/" rel="nofollow">FRAPS</a> which is pretty amazing. Once we have a video we can encode it to our liking. I didn't know that the makers of Ogg Vorbis were working on a video codec. That's really cool. We might just release an Ogg Vorbis Theora video.
