The past week

Sunday, January 18, 2009

You may have noticed this ‘test video’ below up for a while. We have found a new place to host our video, but it’s rather difficult to figure out the correct parameters to make it look good. One would think that the company hosting would have that figured out and instructions all over the place on how to do it. There are literally thousands of options when encoding video, and takes a while to weed through those finding something to work well. I’m happy to say that I have the whole Stranger series up, just not ready to actually use just yet.

However, when I used those same parameters on another video I edited, it didn’t look good at all. Go figure. Too many options, different software (just a newer version) and other changes make it very difficult trying to figure things out.

This past week has been involved with working on getting some books more ready for print (we are looking at 8 print jobs right now) as well as working on the Interactive edition of The Stranger.  We are close on this one, I need to re-burn the DVD with better quality audio, and hopefully that will be ready to proof-read a final time.

It’s been a full week, with some days having good progress, and others leaving me wonder if anything got accomplished! But all and all very thankful for the time / ability to be here at GoodSeed.
