Re: [teknoids] Use of streamed video with MediaNotes?

I’ll fess up to that. :)

I created a reference movie using quicktime pro (not a self contained movie) and was then able to load that into media notes and annotate it. However, I noticed that it is finicky after playing with it quite a bit at maryland. Ie. if there was bandwidth issues, it caused media notes to respond slowly. At home on my broadband or in our office, it worked “fine”.

That being said, once I got past the issue of that and started really using the application, I discovered some other issues with how it deals with streaming media..

At this point, we’re still investigating.

Fellow Teknoids,

During Gene Koo's session on MediaNotes, "The Nuts and Bolts of Using
MediaNotes to Teach Skills", someone tried using Quicktime reference
movies as a substitute for actual locally-saved media files and,
apparently, had success.  If you are that person would you be willing
to share the details of how you accomplished that on the wiki or over
the listserv?  This would be a very convenient solution to the problem
of transferring video files.

Thanks,

Will
