Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

.vob files
Hi all

I'm trying to upload some video files that are in .vob format. It is saying that it is not supported.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of getting these onto SM please? I'm guessing a conversion will be needed? If so is there a way to do it without losing quality?

Big thanks

Nish

Files with the suffix, "vob" generally originate from a standard definition video DVD, and they are generally a video MPEG2 format.

Follow the instructions on this page for very good results for converting the file prior to upload:

Performing noise reduction on your video, prior to conversion and reducing the data rate, will help to retain detail.

If you need further help, the SmugMug support is available at:

I was about to post about this exact same thing! :

I was hoping a conversion wasn't necessary. Some other great conversions softwares are ffmpeg and xavidemux. I'll probably use ffmpeg since I can batch process my conversions. xavid is great for simple editing with conversion.
