We have just launched a brand new plugin and we thought what the hell let’s make it free too for RapidWeaver!’ . We call it symFlip and it gives you some nice WebKit animation effects for your images.

You can create links in the images to urls or pages in your project, and we have also provided some styled text header and footer areas too.

Watch the video, you see it behaves well in Blocks, Pluskit, Stacks too.

Yes this is free, all you have to do is sign up to our newslettter over at the symFlip product page, yes it is as easy as that.

Anyone who has not yet subscribed to our newsletter will be asked to activate their email address before receiving the download link. If you are already a customer (and have not un-subscribed) you will get the download straight-away.

Having trouble getting a perfect setting in Final Cut Pro to play in iPad, iPhone and desktop for HTML 5 Video.

Don’t panic! One of our customers, Jeff from Node Productions, has been kind enough to produce a droplet to give you easy H.264 exports from Final Cut Pro.

These export settings have been tested in iPad, iPhone, Safari, and by the very nature of our RapidWeaver Video Stacks and Plugins if you omit webm /ogg video we automatically switch to Flash using the awesome FlowPlayer Flash Video player.

Want to learn more about this then check out the post on the RapidWeaver Forum where you can view a sample page of the video as well as getting your hands on the droplet.

Once again a big thanks to Jeff for putting this together. If you are looking for someone who specializes in Video and Audio in the Roseville, Sacramento area then look him up at Node Productions

Enjoy :D

Following on from my previous post on using Miro Video Converter to convert your vidoe files in a snap. There is a new update now available with export settings for iPad and the new WebM format.

Taking a sample movie I had in Screenflow, that was 290MB lossless (1280×720 resolution and 1min 43 in duration). This resulted in an iPad formatted mp4 that was 14MB in size and a WebM movie that was 3MB , yes that’s right 3MB.

I should point out that the quality of the WebM; movie was good maybe not as sharp as the H.264 but at 3Mb who’s complaining. However the audio track was a little bit thin and ‘tinny’ probably due to the 64k encoding preset rate for the Vorbis audio track. Miro is updated regularly so I expect to see an improvement in the audio bit rate for WebM .

To get your movies encoded easily for HTML5 Video without going near the command line , easily and cheaply, Miro Video Converter is worth a look.
