The VidMirror

04 Jun 2006

VidMirror helps you to easily upload your videos to multiple video hosting services such as Youtube and Google Video. After that, you get some code to include on your site that will let your visitors choose from among the video copies. VidMirror is a project of Jason Schramm, the coding monkey from Radio Firefox (still looking for a sponsor!)

VidMirror delivers an alternative for the (sometimes) ‘not loading’ videos on a blog. With VidMirror you can easily switch to the site where you mirrored the video, so your users and visitors have the ability to swap to another service if a certain service is responding too slow or if a video has been removed for some (or no) reason (depending on the service you use).

VidMirror has been custom made, shortly after the trouble I had with YouTube. That’s one of the cool things about Jason. You just wish for a thing, and the guy comes up with some brilliant plan and then actually codes it. I can’t believe nobody hired him yet.

VidMirror delivers code for: YouTube, Google Video, Revver, Veoh, Vimeo, Yahoo Video, Flurl, Zippy Videos, OurMedia, PutFile, StreetFire, TinyPic and vSocial. That should cover all your problems very nicely. It looks like this:

But if you head over to Jason’s blog, you can see how you can embed it in your css and have a nice frame around it.
