Original Orbiter Beta Tester
Hey everyone.
In case you were wondering whatever happened to my Orbiter site, Moonport, well two things. One Orbiter has not been updated for very long time, and second, I was paying big bucks to keep the site going, and third, I had virtually no time to maintain the site.
So in order to trim the fat, I had to end my dedicated server running moonport and release myself as an orbiter Distributor. This in itself will save me quite a bit. But my web presents has not gone away and, in fact, I converted the site to something you may want to use.
Enter Pit-Tube. My YouTube answer. I was getting tired of the choppy and poor video quality YouTube was giving, so I decided to start my own video sharing service. As for you, the Orbiter community, I invite you one and all to share your videos on Pit-Tube. With an improved video converter, quality will be maintained to your satisfaction.
You can embed videos, like YouTube, in messages, like in this example:
<embed src="http://moonport.org//flvplayer.swf" quality="high" width="450" height="367" name="VideoPlayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" FlashVars="file=http://moonport.org//uploads/xBdtcTKYl0khJPp4RLcR.flv&width=450&height=367&displaywidth=450&displayheight=367&overstretch=true&autostart=false&showfsbutton=false&logo=http://moonport.org//image_s/playerlogo.png&link=http://moonport.org/&linktarget=_blank&backcolor=0xFFFFFF" wmode="transparent" border="0"></embed>
Well, it appears that embedding does not work here, but trust me, it does. Just close your eyes and imagine. It's a nice space shuttle launch video. You can see it here
http://moonport.org//play.php?vid=105
You can also upload audio as well, which YouTube lacks.
Anyways, I invite all my friends in the Orbiter community to use this service to share their Orbiter videos. While I may not have as much time to work with Orbiter, I do enjoy watching the work of others.
Oh, the address?
http://www.pit-tube.com
You can also get there using the old http://www.moonport.org address
Enjoy! Hope to see your best work!

Why is not my embedding working here? Do I need to submit Pit-Tube to be included?
