If just a few companies dominate online video, creativity will be restricted. If the most popular video tools rely on closed, proprietary distribution systems, free speech will suffer.
Miro is specifically designed to give video creators and viewers more freedom. We've built Miro to work with as many video hosting sites and video search engines as possible. We believe that the future of media depends on creators being able to choose the publishing services that work best for them, rather than being forced to use a few monopolistic services.
How do I get my Videos on Miro?
Miro converts any media RSS feed into a channel. Don't worry if you've never heard of RSS — it's an open distribution format that works with Miro, iTunes, and lots of other tools. Many blogs and video sharing services automatically generate an RSS feed. Once you have a feed that works in Miro (please test it first!), you can submit it to the Miro Guide.
The resources below can help you with every stage of video production — from filming, to editing, encoded, publishing, and promotion. Check this page for specific information on RSS feed formats.
