What video formats we are talking about?

A Video refers to recording, manipulating, and displaying moving images, especially in a format that can be presented on a television.

Video formats are confusing because most video files have at least two different types: the container and the codec used inside that container. I’ll list some common video formats that we often used :

AVI (.avi): Most commonly contains M-JPEG (especially from digital cameras?) or DivX (for whole movies), but can contain nearly any format (not Sorenson). Sometimes you’ll see a reference to the “fourcc”: this is a four-character code (such as “divx” or “mpeg”) inside the AVI container which specifies which video codec is being used.

QuickTime(MOV): Most often used for the locked Apple Sorenson codec, or for Cinepak (free), but can also hold other codes such as mjpeg, etc.

WMV (.wmv): More or less MPEG4; can contain nearly any codec, including several Microsoft spinoffs of MPEG-4 which vary in their freedom and licensing requirements.

ASF (“Advanced Streaming Format”, .asf): a subset of wmv, intended primarily for streaming: an early Microsoft implementation of an MPEG4 codec.

MPEG (“Moving Pictures Expert Group”): three video formats, MPEG 1, 2, and 4.

MPEG-1: Old, supported by everything (at least up to 352×240), reasonably efficient, most used in VCD.

MPEG-2: A souped-up version of MPEG-1, with better compression. 720×480. Used in HDTV, DVD, and SVCD.

MPEG-4: A family of codecs, some of which are open, others Microsoft proprietary. A good format for the web.

MPEG spinoffs: mp3 (for music) and VideoCD

Free way for Converting PowerPoint to video

Bill Gates didn’t provide plug-in into Microsoft PowerPoint, which can convert PowerPoint into video. You should be aware of some top software, which can do this job for you and that too at free of cost. Yes, this can be done for free but it’s tricky.

Here are steps for doing so:

- Save all PowerPoint slides in JPG format.

- Now make video by importing all images to Windows Movie Maker.

Disadvantages of free Conversion

There are some disadvantages after converting PowerPoint into video, which are given below:

*All animation is being gone from presentation, thus resulting into dreary presentation with no charm at all.

*Moreover, presentation doesn’t contain audio anymore and it takes lots of pain to add audio into video.These all points bring home the fact that when your slideshow presentation doesn’t contain any animation, video or audio clips then this conversion can be helpful to you, else it may not solve your problem. Here are some principles that may be helpful to you in conversion.

How to converting PowerPoint to video:

1.The first method is to play slideshow on your screen and to record it at the same time with screen recording application like Wondershare DemoCreator. But I want to suggest one thing regarding screen recorder that while conversion you will not be able to do any other job and you need to open PowerPoint each time. Also there are chances of loosing animation, audio tracks etc. One more disadvantage is that you cannot convert all PowerPoint pieces at same time.

2.The Second method is using software available on various website. You can find lots of software application for PowerPoint conversion to video and also promising of providing best quality output. But you need to find the best one, so our suggestion is to take free trail prior to purchase. This method will keep everything retained as original, so far is the best way.

We have all heard of the second generation traffic and how powerful social bookmarking sites are becoming day after day. Social bookmark sites have proven to be very effective in boosting your site’s traffic and ranking.

The top social bookmark site, no question, is Digg. com. Everyday, thousands of marketers and webmasters struggle and use all kinds of tricks, in attempts to get their stories featured on Digg’s front page. Almost all diggers have heard of the term “power digger” or “top digg power user” and try their best to become one, as that would make it easier for their stories to get to the front page.

Other than understanding the digg system and how the site really works, there aren’t any secrets to help you achieve that goal. Below are 7 effective Digg Tips to help you become a Top Digg Power User in no time :

1- Create, Maintaing a Good Profile and Brand Yourself With a Vivid Avatar

Oftenly overlooked, but I can’t stress enough on this one. In order to become really successful in digg, you have to take the time and build up a good interesting profile, while keeping an eye on your daily stats which you should improve little by little. Some of these stats are: – Number of stories submitted – Number of stories that became popular – The popularity Ratio which (percent of submitted stories which were made popular) – The number of stories you personally dugg – The number of people who viewed your profile.

Your avatar is another important piece of your profile, or overall digg membership, that you need to pay special attention to. You should choose a good clear vivid avatar. This is KEY for getting attention to your posts. Not asking you to go with a very attention grabbing image as in sexy images, rare or bizarre images, but you SHOULD have a digg avatar. Don’t just mingle there as a ghost without one. It is also important that your chosen avatar is a clear non-blurry photo, be it your photo or just an image you chose to display.

2- Importance of Your Stories’ Titles and Descriptions

Take your time coming up with good titles. Think linkbait titles… (top 10…. 5 reasons why…. how to…etc). When choosing your title, you might as well think SEO. Your title’s keywords are what are taken into consideration when ranking you in the serps and getting you search engine traffic.

When it comes to the description, don’t reveal everything. Many members just copy the first paragraph of their posts/stories and paste them there. Not very effective technique. A good alternative which is far more better, is if you take your time and come up with a description that will make them CURIOUS about what is written in your post. ALso don’t forget to submit ONLY quality content. There is no place for trash or spam in digg. Careful! If one thing Digg is notorious for, is banning blogs/sites in lighting speed!

3- Use Feeds, News Alerts…etc. to Stay Current on very Current News Stories

Before anything, you need to know your audience. Majority of Digg’s audience seem to prefer and like certain topics over others. Fact. So it is better not wasting your time feeding them what they don’t digest. A simple example is the uncountable iPhone stories that fill digg and many times easily make it to the front page. On the opposite side, anything positive about Mr.Bush will never see the light!

Generally talking, it is noted that digg users “digg” stories related to new gadgets, technology or world news, so if your niche is already one of these then you have an advantage.

The only way to be the very first to post a certain news story, is to keep yourself updated and notified of the news and hot topics. If you have subscribed to rss feeds, you should tick and choose the news option, use social aggregators, along with subscribing to news alerts. Another idea to keep it simpler, is to subscribe to news alerts from only top news site, aggregators, and niche sites.

4- Filtering Through and Adding Active Digg Friends

With digg, as much as it is important to expand your network of friends, you also should note that most of them won’t be of use to you as they aren’t active members, and therefore will only waste your time.

Many people think that by adding top diggers, that they will very much benefit from them. Not always the case. I personally go to digg’s homepage, and look for stories that were made popular within minutes of their submission. Most of these stories are submitted by top diggers. I then tend to view the “friends” of this top digger, and add them as my friends in hopes that they reciprocate. It wouldn’t hurt adding the power digger himself, but the point is that his friends are more likely the reason for his post to become popular within a few minutes. You also have to watch the activities of any friends you add. You should select friends who are active and who digg your stories when you ask them to. Whenever you submit a story and shout it to your friends, take a look at who dugg it (there is a button to check that). By time you can tell active friends from idle ones. Don’t hesitate in replacing the dead beats with new active friends.

An ideal Digg friend :

* Checks in and uses the site everyday

* Diggs many stories

* Checks for stories their friends submit- diggs them regularly

* Submits stories that you will enjoy reading and voting on

* Does not submit way too many stories

* Does not have 70 billion friends

5- Stay Active

To become successful with digg, you have to become an active member. An active member is a member who submits, diggs, shares and comments on daily basis. At least try the digging and submitting part on a daily basis. I will soon tell you why. I personally give digg at least half an hour a day, even when I’m busy. One reason why you should stay active, is that your digg friends (network) are watching you to determine whether or not you are worthy to be on their list of friends, or just some idle laying there. They might choose to de-friend you or remove you from their lists. Remember that digg is a mutual community, where you notify “shout as used by digg” your friends of new submissions and digg each other’s stories. They also want active members as friends.

6- Submitting Your Own Stories

Stay away from submitting your own stories. You can do it once in a while, but make sure you submit other stories as well. If you submit only your stories, you won’t last long in digg and very possible would be subject for a bann. You can have other people submit your stories but try not to make it a habbit for you to submit them.

7- Save Your Site From the Negative Impact of the Digg Effect

If you are going to attempt getting your stories to the front page of digg, you need to worry about this…The Digg Effect. Simply put, The Digg Effect is when your site “crashes” from a hell lot of Diggers visiting it at once. Your server gets suddenly hit with a boost of hundreds and thousands of requests, overloading it. If your site cannot handle a popular Digg story that made it to the front page, then it might be wise to first mirror your site.

An addition to the horde of innovative touchscreen and HSDPA-enabled gadgets, LG KF 700 is a no-fancy-tricks mobile phone that lets you enjoy the benefits of easy connection, easy download, and easy navigation.

 

The LG KF 700 comes in sleek black (and no other colors are available) case with 102 x 51 x 14.5 mm dimension and a 3-inch wide screen that is touch-sensitive allowing you to browse folders in just a point of a finger. The appropriate distances of the menu wonâ??t give you a hard time reverting to home as they are generously lined on the screen. No accidental clicking and less time wasted. Adding more convenience is the slide-down alphanumeric keypad for text and number inputs that is comprehensively laid out to avoid confusion. Or you can just easily press the Shortcut Dial which directs you to specific pages if you are in a hurry.

 

LG KF 700 is a simple yet classy candy-bar mobile phone that accommodates everything latest in gadgetry. To start it off, itâ??s High-Speed Downlink Packet Access or HSDPA enabled which means that you can browse the Internet and download files at the speed of 7 Mbps. This is the ideal count for smooth video and audio streaming and gadget geeks must be rejoicing over this.

 

Technically, LG KF 700 can also play audio files in MP3, WMA, AAC, AAC+ and MP4 format. This feature lets you play music anytime, even full-length MPEG-4 movies. You can even switch headphones or attach it to a speaker for cooler sound tripping without losing sound quality. The video runs at 15 frames per second.

 

The camera feature, a 3. 15 megapixel imaging tool for caprturing special moments can produce 2048×1536 resolution photos. It has autofocus for closer shots and image stabilizer to avoid blurred or shaky images. Moreover, the LED flash is useful for taking shots in poorly lit backgrounds.

 

Unfortunately, KF 700 s not WiFi ready but the HSDPA compensates for it anyway. This, plus the Bluetooth connectivity, organizer, videocall, FM Radio, voice memory, built-in handsfree, and USB port, add to it 3D game applications make it a must-have for users of all ages and lifestyles. The phone can only accommodate too much so the MicroSD expansion slot is provided in the phone interface for keeping extra files.

 

LG KF 700 bears the familiar look of LG Prada, which success inspired its creation. This is neither LGâ??s own version of iPhone as this follows standards very much different from KF 700. This phoning device is purely functional an is not dedicated on multimedia alone. The multimedia is just the bonus as mobile phones today are crafted with high regard for technology, thus, the manufacturing of such kind.

 

As a whole, LG KF 700 would be a good option for those who are looking for simplicity and functionality. Who needs a hone that will take you time to understand that a new model may come out before you memorize the functions?
