Drupal Dojo will be switching to using blip.tv for hosting many of its screencasts. Below are directions on how to upload videos to blip.tv and tag them properly.

  1. Login using your Username and Password
  2. Choose Upload from the Menu
  3. Fill in the Appropriate Information about your video
  4. In the description field, fill in a short description of the video. You should include a permalink to a Handbook Page, Drupal Dojo Lesson Post, or another place where more info on the topic can be found.
  5. The Tags field should contain drupal dojo as well as clear, concise terms for what your video is about, separated by spaces. (i.e. a screencast on CCK would be tagged drupal dojo, CCK, or a screencast on CCK and Views integration would be tagged drupal dojo, CCK, views)
  6. Be sure to select the correct license (CC-BY-SA)!
  7. Click Upload.
  8. It takes about a day for the video to be transcoded into FLV. Until then, blip.tv will display the native version of the video.
  9. Post a link to your video and accompanying material to groups.drupal.org. Admins can then post the video to drupaldojo.com
