[Tech] Re: MP4

Flash Player 5 is supposedly in 96% of browsers,
a server should pick a format to suit the client
but I don't know offhand how this would be done,
don't have MP4 conversion tools handy either.

PS: It would be nice to see monthly data at http://graceandmartina.org/webalizer
like I see monthly data at http://green-rainbow.org/webalizer
but there's no output from ...

# awk -F: '{print $1}' < /etc/passwd | while read u; do crontab -u $u -l 2&>1; done | grep webalizer

... so how'd it get there?

monthly webalizer pages for domains other than
GraceAndMartina.org but nothing in crontab,

These are now all up on the website. I thought there was talk about
using Flash for media? The routine I have for detecting the right movie
player is for Flash content not mp4, so if the user doesn't have a
player for mp4 all he or she gets is an error once the file is downloaded.

Also, I have converted the media content to links and updated the
Content Management system to reflect this difference. I added recent
media items and unpublished those for which I didn't readily have a
link. One (I) might endeavor to locate the original links, but those
were old so I don't know how important they are. Media content can now
be added easily and quickly thru the CMS.
