I am time rich and money poor and enjoy a challenge. I see this as a long term project. It is huge but it would rule.

Well, then do it! Damn the lawyers and full speed ahead -smile.

Mark, why don't you upload all your videos to digital-director.tv? I know the quality is poor, but it's got to start somewhere?

[Goldfinger]

I agree with the above, the 'Clipshare' template used on digital-director.tv may be a good place to start and there's no reason why it couldn't grow to become something bigger.

Talking of growing bigger (ahem), take a look at pornhub.com (purely for research purposes of course) to see how professional and accessible a video sharing site can become using the Clipshare model and as long as it has good user support.

I even tried starting one myself using a similar video sharing template at beextreme.tv. Great for UK extreme sport fans!

This and dd.tv sit on a dedicated server, so you don't get the problems that most clipshare installations have. I'm good to you guys...

[Mark W]

You are.... group hug.

As for some uploads - could do - but so long as that wont stop all sorts of jiggery pokery later on. Like er I dunno - just jiggery pokery - oh dear - cant see the bottom - out of depth.

Thing is i make films and heal mad people and a few friends have been spouting techno babble in my ear and ...

Marc PM me your number again pls - it would be helpfullk just to get some of the basics about the straming service clear.

[Mark W]

I am not sure of the techincal stuff - but if the video server can be repostioned to a new domain...

' yourtube.com ' - for sale at £9.95.

Assuming it caould be relocated but still associated with d director - any other idea?

[Marc Peters]

That URL is just asking for trouble - but my registar says it's taken...

[Marc Peters]

What about opentube?
