Video: Hello World

Welcome to the new Expression Encoder team blog!  As Charles says in the video, we plan on posting a bunch for hints and tips over the coming weeks.  We also encourage you to give us your feedback.

All of our video blog posts are made with Expression Encoder and published using Silverlight on the Silverlight Streaming by Windows Live video hosting service.

We are currently hard at work on the next release and look forward to sharing the details soon.  Thanks for watching / reading!

    Very nice intro! The video looks much better than anything I seem to be able to churn out.  A great follow-on blog would be a look at what you used to film and what settings you used in Encoder.   Can't wait to read more.

    Hello everyone :) We are delighted that you are already joining our blog discussions! I'm just the pretty face in the video- The Big Kudos go to JAMES CLARKE for doing the work to get this blog up and running and doing the first post: He shot the video, authored the content with current build of Expression Encoder 2 (with Blend 2 for customizing the player), then posted it! FYI - We used a new mic that seems overly enthusiastic to amplify silence (hence the noisy sounds at speech pauses) To see if you are listening he recorded my voice to one of the stereo channels and on the other "quantum foam". Can you tell us which channel has the quantum foam?

    Why doesn't MS develop a more powerful video editor instead of just an encoder?

    Hi, your video isn't loading properly in Firefox (fine in IE), and I DO have Silverlight installed (I use the Silverlight streaming service with it all the time). All I get is a "Waiting for silverlight.dlservice.microsoft.com..." in the status bar, and a big blank white space!

    Why do you guys need a blog? Encoding is just plumbing. This seems wrong. Through in an article every 18 months on some other random blog. Why not just post your H.264 videos of the team to YouTube and we can watch them there.

    Terrible downloading and streaming speed, terrible. I see you guy stop there and "Ex, --- pre---ssi---on"... Okay, it is not a good idea to put it on live - live service is not friendly to people outside US.

    Windows Movie Maker isn't bad however if you add more export formats and all the stuff that VirtualDub / Adobe Premiere Elements / Ulead VideoStudio / Pinnacle Studio /  iMovie/ Final Cut Express / Sony Vegas Movie Studio. There are so many examples. I've always noticed MS only supports its own proprietary media formats. If MS supports more formats like H.264/MPEG-4 and QuickTime, their products will be even more well received. I think such a product would please the whole Windows industry (except of course the competition). Folks really want such a thing, but they've kind of given up expecting it from Microsoft.

    Don't forget to buy Inlet Technologies (www.inlethd.com), or at least only their awesome industry rocking Fathom product.

    Thx for the comments.  We are looking at the Firefox issues and will hopefully have a fix soon.  We'll also look into the poor performance issues; the video is published on silverlight streaming which should be providing global load balancing but we may tweek the bitrate down to provide more universal performance.  Bear with us.. we are still experimenting with what works best.  We'll also publish a complete how to at some point soon including settings etc.  Charles and I are off to present our session at Mix08.  We'll be posting some more videos from there. Cheers James

    Hello back... from one small part of the world.. Charles can make any video look good... for the specs on the video playing, try a 512x288 pixel size with a bitrate of 1.2 Mbps... 29.97 fps... VC1 codec.... as you view it, that's the size of the temporary downloaded video file.
