Metavid Wiki video preview
September 26th, 2007
Here is a short demo (ogg 5 meg, mp4 17megs) video of the metavid wiki integration that has been under development. This video shows the stream view with basic editing of text and person attribute meta data. This is more or less what I demoed at wikipedia a while back. The in-development version of metavid wiki has 2 additional interfaces. One for searching streams metadata and another for creating and editing sequences. As was mentioned last week, the sequence playback functionality will be handled by mv_embed.
We hope to have something online that people can play with soon 
and then a total site conversion not long after that. To get a feel for how sequencing and “dynamic” searching will look/feel you can check out the original version of metavid… and then imagine in the mediaWiki platform ;P

That’s totally awesome! I can’t wait to have wikipedia include this and have people upload videos with these kinds of annotations!!
But you should put a Ogg Theora version of the video up, mate.
