I have upgraded the account so that we can make full use of Blip's features present and future. So this now means that oTV can reach users on pretty much any platform that users wish to use - iTunes (shame on you), Miro, other RSS based viewers (like Banshee). I have also enabled the mp3 transcoding option, which now means you can download the shows in audio only should you wish. The full list of formats that oTV now supports is OGG, M4V and MP3 more are in the pipeline. Currently there are 16 episodes on the channel, these include screencasts, and talks held at LRL USA and Day 1 of FOSDEM. I am endeavouring to get the rest of the FOSDEM videos up asap, as well as getting the LinuxTag series up. There is also the openSUSE Rooms Series which will be uploaded in due course. My current ISP isn't helping at the minute, but they'll be gone by Thursday.
If people have any videos that they feel should be on oTV please either mail me (I'm at the opensuse.org domain under awafaa), catch me on IRC I'm in most of the English openSUSE channels most of the time, or you can leave a comment. As always I'm very keen in feedback, so let that come my way too. There are a couple of episodes that haven't transcoded to all formats yet, and I'm working with Blip's tech guys and gals to resolve it. Thanks and happy viewing.
