Mosaic Podcast - After much technical delays with compression issues, I finally launched the video podcast at Mosaic. A 45 minute clip was compressing at 300mb through the standard QuickTime to iPod video export. I finally found an app called Podner which allows me to do 2 pass encoding, has cropping and batch processing. The size of the files went down to around 120mb, a much more manageable size for both serving and downloading. I’m also using Lostify, an app that allows me to edit tags on video files for Video Podcasting.
