Introducing "Cornica". A Video portal for Mac OS users. (BETA)

First of all, hello.
I want to present a new portal in development: Its name is "Cornica", is a site where Mac OS users can see Streaming videos, just like in YouTube. It uses QuickTime and RealNetworks technology to work.

Actually I'm accepting Sorenson Video 3 movies to be uploaded in Cornica... but I need a good Free FTP server, Dropbox is so slow in some cases.

Feedback? Suggestions?: abarcabahamondes [at] gmail.com

The URL is http://cornica.260mb.org/
Actually I'm searching a new Hosting Name.

This is an awesome idea. I will try to convert some videos for uploading. As I plan to do a youtube channel about retro mac gaming, I think I will publish the videos on your platform as well Smile

Keep up your good work!

@MadMac: De Taringa! soy, me siento halagado por ello. Gracias.
Recomiendame videos para descargar. En el directorio está la sección "Español". Necesita llenarse con algo bueno.

very interesting, always liked the idea of having sites that will work on older macs
i would offer you free ftp hosting, but i don't have allot of bandwidth (although i'm more than happy to offer you backup space)

@Bolkonskij: I think I can give the first steps to Cornica. Later on, users can upload content.
@max1zzz: Thanks a lot. I need servers for the "30 Seconds" Directory in Cornica (10-30 seconds videos uses 800-2400 KB approx.)

@Nicolasbahamondes: Email me and i'll see what i can do for you small files should be ok, the setup will probably be proftpd / pureftpd in a Debian linux vm, and i will make sure to include you in my backup (which runs every 12 hours)

@max1zzz: This night I'll send you an eMail, I need to go out in 5 minutes.
Also, I'll prepare some 30 seconds videos.
I have a question: Is it a chance to add a Visitor Counter compliant with HTML 3.0 or 4.0 in Cornica?

Feedback of the Day:

One of the most annoying features of YouTube for HUAWEI or slow connection users is the "Autoplay" feature, when someone enters to a Videopage.

Actually, in CornicaLabs, I deactivated the Autoplay function. I want to know the following:

Is it a good idea to keep deactivated "Autoplay"?

As far as i am aware: http://www.easycounter.com/ uses a html 4 compatible system, i would think it would work with html 3, but i have never done anything in html 3 so i can't be 100% sure

I highly recommend using standards for video (which would rule out RealPlayer but not rule out some of the other formats). I'm mainly saying this because it's horribly difficult to convert certain types of RP media to modern formats and vice-versa.

@nicolasbahamondes: did you ever get around to emailing me? (it's just that my gmail account has a habit of ignoring emails from some addresses)
