Dear Seesmic: if you're going to make me go through the trouble of re-encoding my videos from avi to flv, then I want them to show up a little faster THAN FIFTEEN BLOODY MINUTES. Especially when YouTube took the same file and had it ready to go in FIVE MINUTES. Regards, Me.
And it's not like it's a big thing, either - a little jiggery-pokery at the command line and voila! New format.

That's the thing. I LOVE Seesmic. I first started posting vids there rather than YouTube. Now, just when I want the vid to post, nada. :(

Lindsey, in the words of that awesome 80s song, "don't disturb this groove". :)

@Steven, get a file format designed within the last decade: flash supports .mp4 natively, and afaik seesmic can accept mp4 uploads as well. .avi doesn't support variable framerates, among many other things...

MJC: Please re-read original post. And yeah, I tried both formats.
