FYI: The next meeting of the Calgary Final Cut Pro Users Group will be held:

Thursday July 13th, 2006

WestWorld Computers

Meeting starts at 7:00PM

They will be discussing Video Podcasting and how to get your projects out to the masses! Kray Mitchell, Producer and Director of one of the first Short Film Video Podcasts, Crookz, will be on hand to show us how.

Additionally, they will examine the “how-and-why” of up-grading to Final Cut Studio 5.1. Find out if the time is right for you, and just how much time (and money) it is going to take.

Podcasting Categories change in iTunes

Monday, July 10th, 2006

From The iTunes Podcasting Team:

iTunes launched a revised set of categories for podcasts listed in the iTunes Music Store. The revised categories and subcategories are listed below. iTunes recommends that you take the time to change your podcast feed as soon as possible. They will support the use of the old category names for the next few months, so there is no immediate deadline for making these changes.

When they read your RSS feed, they capture and store up to 3 category+subcategory pairs, and they use all of them to populate the browse lists that you see when you click the “Browse” link in the Music Store. However, the first category+subcategory pair listed in your feed is the most important, since it is the one listed as the Category field on your podcast page, and it is the only one used to map your podcast into the category feature pages.
