New Features
Later today, there will be a new Media Mill release that adds a ton of new features. This has been in beta for ages, as we waited for a few pieces to come together. Here's a partial list of what to expect - the links go to videos demonstrating the features:
- Multiple Quality Levels in Flash Player
- Direct YouTube submission
- Direct VideoANT integration (bi-directional)
- Customizable Flash player
- Ability to flag video as progressive (advanced feature)
- Revised projects display - thumbnails and 'more info' link
- Improved sharing notification
- Support for FLV source videos
- Better corrupt file detection
- Revised podcast feeds with detailed file type information
- Improved consistency about http versus https serving
- Better handling of source files with special characters in the name
- Navigation box stays fixed while scrolling
Plus lots of minor tweaks and bug fixes.
So, what's still on the todo list?
- H.264 flash integration
- H.264 streaming
- Revised Help interface
- Demux mpeg-2 (maybe, possibly, perhaps...)
- Migrate flash player to actionscript3
- Modules for submission to third parties
- More flash options
- Autodetect interlaced files
- And whatever else comes up...
