MIT TechTV’s vendor (Viddler) is currently trying out a Beta of an HD video feature.  We have it plugged into MIT TechTV, so if you want to try it out, just upload your videos with the following settings and the rest should take care of itself.

• Format: h.264
• File Extension: .mov, .mp4, .m4v (m4v is the only format we could reliably get to work at this time on a Mac using Final Cut Studio Pro applications)
• Resolution: any seem to work for us
• Bit-rate: 500Kbps – 4Mbps

For Audio, we just found out that PCM formatting won’t work.  We know that AAC formatting works just fine though.
Please send us any feedback you may have to techtv@mit.edu so that we can help perfect this new feature.
