Also, so there isn't concern that I will know who voted what.  The poll only records that you voted not what you voted.  The overall tally gets updated but does not save who voted for what.  So please vote the way you feel.


A little expansion on my idea for the island.  There would be a couple of music video cafe's that play different genre's, a movie trailer cafe, home movie cafe, machinima cafe, etc.  There would also be shops to rent to people to help bring in revenue.  There would be a theater that would stream in movies in the public domain.

A feature I forgot to mention for the website will be playlists.  Members will be able to customize a playlist to have play in-world.

Here are instructions for hosting a video from the ISE on your land in SL.

I am close to having the ability to create a playlist on the website and get a free object to play videos.

Thanks Yanik. 

My goal is to get the technology out to other sims for the simple reason you state,  a sim is going to hold 20-30 people.  I do need a sim to develop the technology and I know Rodders will develop and make extra money for the new company.  But to be effective the technology has to be for everyone, not just the sim we purchase.

Anybody will be able to video on their land but for club owners they will be able to buy into streaming.  That way all club members see the same video at the same time and the club owner gets to set up a playlist.  This part will require a fee because a socket will have to be dedicated to this.  Pricing will be worked out after more research but a dedicated stream will be priced very inexpensively.

As far as copyrights, we will be doing the same thing Youtube does and follow the DMCA.  Once we are made aware of copyright infringement, we will immediately remove the video.   This is the only viable method of dealing with it and is why both LL and Youtube follow it as will we.

The last question is tough and I can only ballpark it because a lot depends on how the site is used and how the traffic shapes.   I would guess realistically about 500-750 concurrent users.

The stream will come from the new server.

of course I believe in sl video. I'd help fund it if need be.

>>Great Chaos, the IPO is at 13-1 in favor so barring an unexpected turn I would guess that the IPO is going to pass.  The IPO closes Thursday at 8am SLT.

Clarifying, I think you mean this thread the "SLVideo IPO" POLL will close Thursday and begin being available.  (The IPO itself will close after it is sold out after it is offered.)

The vote is now 14-1 with 48 hours to go.  I have added a sort on the initial video page.  I am about to add search and I have playlist ready to go to.  I went ahead and bought the domain name.  If the IPO doesn't pass then I'll deal with that.

I also changed the codec for audio and it has reduced the size of the files but they are still not streaming.  Assuming the IPO passes and fills, I will change to a different audio codec that will definitely stream.

LL allows you to share their video as long as you credit it, so here is an excellent tutorial on how to get video on your land.

err, IPO over already!??! or poll to opine whether to offer IPO!  I think the IPO is still going, having just begun (when this thread's poll expired).
