What is the Sonrise Vodcast? Our vodcast is a weekly video of our Sunday sermon delivered to your iTunes player or other rss reader. The content is the same as our audio sermon mp3s, just in video format. As our ability to produce video grows we will also make other content available in video format, such as classes and seminars. Cool! But what does 'Vodcast' mean? Actually, we are not totally sure. VOD stands for 'video-on-demand' and cast refers to the ability to send the content to you, the consumer, the same way that audio podcasts are delivered. Many people use vodcast interchangeably with 'videocast', 'vcast', and 'video podcast'. Check out wikipedia for more info. What equipment do you need? The basic requirements for Podcasting are a computer, Podcasting software (iTunes is now the most popular) and an Internet connection. To carry the file with you, you'll need an Apple Video iPod. So how do I get the Sonrise Vodcast? Download and install Podcasting software onto your computer. Sonrise recommends iTunes (even if you don't own an iPod or portable audio player you can still manage and listen to podcasts through iTunes.) If you are using iTunes, all you need to do is click on the iTunes image under the "Subscribe to Sonrise Podcast" section and when iTunes opens, click subscribe. You can also go to the podcast section in the iTunes music store and search for Sonrise Community Church. After you have subscribed to the Vodcast, your computer will automatically download the previous week's message each Tuesday afternoon. How do I watch the video files once they are on my computer? The video files are compressed with the Quicktime h.264 compression settings, so you will need a recent version of Quicktime to view the files. iTunes users should already have Quicktime installed and can watch the files from within the iTunes program. The video files are compressed to be used on a Video iPod, but look great for watching on your computer as well. Anything else? The complete sermon video files are usually around 90mb for about an half-hour of content. Keep this in mind since it might take a while to download the files.
