MediaWiki should convert all our videos to low-rez Flash Video format for streaming previewing as soon as the .ogg original is uploaded. This way, more people will be able to view our videos, so we'll get more uploads.
Agree or disagree?
100% agree. I still haven't figured out how to get OGG files to play correctly on any of my computers, and I'm more computer savvy than most. I look forward to the day when OGG is a well-supported and easy-to-play format but until then, I don't think playing a little lowest-common-denominator is a bad thing when it comes to tech things, with the always-available option of linking up with the full file for those who really want to monkey with it.
