Personal, Simple, Better!

Sharers,

As you can tell, we have been busy again with a whole new round of updates for Share on Ovi. This development cycle was focused on improving the user experience at Share.ovi.com. Here are the details:

Making Share more personal

Share on Ovi has always been about sharing pictures and videos with your friends, family, or the world.  Now we’ve made some changes to Share to make it an even more personal experience - connecting you with your media and the latest additions from your contacts right off the bat.  The new home page is simpler, less cluttered, and easier to navigate – and it gets you to what you care about the most right away. 

 

Making Share simple to use

Creating channels to organize and share your media just got a lot simpler, and our upload page is now a lot easier to use.  All of the power and detail is still there if you want it, but it’s now much more straight forward to just name a new channel, set it to public or private, and get your media into it quickly so that you can share it with your world.

Better, faster, and more reliable video

We’ve changed the way we handle videos so that they get posted faster and look even better than before.  The new m4v format that we’re using for mobile video is a big step up in quality, and our new transcoding technology can handle even more file types so that most videos can be played back in the browser window. 

Not only does this improve your new videos, but we’re going to go back to the beginning and upgrade all of the videos that have ever been posted. It may take us a few days, but we’ll get them all.

As always your thoughts and feedback is very important to us. Please feel free to respond to this post or visit our forums to offer ideas and feedback.

Thank you for using Share on Ovi for your personal media sharing needs

Looking good!

My final wish: could we put the embed/share links more prominent? This is a must-have for people like me who want their videos go viral :)

I'm currently using Share on Ovi for sharing Beta Labs videos:

Hey, it's great the new layout of the videos player! But the thing is, it's still missing a botton on the video box so people can copy the embed code or the video URL.
