New .amr File Format AcceptedCategory: estrip
I added support for the .amr audio file format. It is a highly compressed audio file format that is used on mobile phones. Like the 3gpp mobile video format I added before, it's default player is quicktime 6.3. However, I believe other programs can play and/or support this. Maybe (e:uncutsaniflush) can figure something out if they don't. If not just make sure you have quicktime support, it is free at

Who wants to go to Artvoice Absolut?Category: events
Anyone want to go to the Artvoice Absolut party on Septemeber 12th to see if we came in as Buffalo's #1 blog site? It is Monday from 6-9PM. Maybe a bunch of us should go, it could be fun. I have a feeling that Buffalo Rising will win because they have more connections. I wish we wern't up against blogger blogs. I can't wait for them to release their new site. (e:zack) says it will be awesome.
I think we are probably once of only a few commercial free community blog sites in the country. Maybe that will count for something.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll just have it detect linux and serve the link instead of the embedded object. I was able to make the 3gpp work on llinux with embedded real player but only if there was just 1 video per page. more than one video would kill it. Links will be easier.
I might get around to it, paul, when I have the time.
As you know there is no quicktime for linux. And firefox, bless its pointy wee head, doesn't have a working mime plugine editor at the moment.
If you are interested, i could give you a suggestion of how you could help people who are using operating systems such as linux or *bsd with no official quicktime releases experience the embedded video and audio - include the url of the actual file so that an external streaming player could be used and/or the file could be d/led and viewed offline. I know it's not very elegant. But it would be way better than an empty space. At least peeps that aren't using windows or osX would have a chance to listen and view the files.
