KimRMiller on "Selling your DVDs Video on Amazon?" http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/selling-your-dvds-video-on-amazon#post-59165 Fri, 28 May 2010 18:10:07 +0000 KimRMiller 59165@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ JG, Have you looked into Amazon Advantage? We sell our DVDs through Amazon that way. You do need a UPC code - we buy ours through UPCExpress for $29/each. There is an annual fee, we pay $25 and they take 55% plus you pay to ship your DVDs to them when they order. We usually ship media mail to keep that cost down. When they order more than one, that makes it better. This may be a more economical option for you to get Amazon exposure. We've been wanting to look into the other CreateSpace option but maybe Amazon Advantage is better for us actually. We also sell on eBay but the bulk of how we sell is through our own webstores. It still takes marketing effort and our biggest success there comes in the form of capturing email addresses and email marketing. Tom gives you similar advice to how we operate. We've seen our business grow over 80% through our marketing efforts and Amazon and eBay were a part of that but we found more success with our own sites. For one of them, I'd say half our traffic comes from our YouTube videos. What are your DVDs about? jgaertner on "Selling your DVDs Video on Amazon?" http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/selling-your-dvds-video-on-amazon#post-59101 Thu, 27 May 2010 05:06:44 +0000 jgaertner 59101@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ Thanks for this information. I was not aware of the CreateSpace on Amazon, but it does not seem to be a "great" deal for the Video Owner, like me. I may have missed it, but nowhere do I see that the DVDs are encrypted so people cannot just whack copies of your work and sell them for nothing? Right now we are using a local duplication company who is able to do good encryption but, of course it adds to our over all cost. Since our DVDs are not "movies" people would watch for intertainment we do not go to the trouble of expensive packaging. Just plain envelopes with full color labels. No one is going to place our educational material DVDs on their bookcase for all their friends to ohh and ahh over. My understanding from reading Amazon.com is that you have to have a UPC to sell your self produced DVDs. No big problem. Lots of firms sell UPSs on line. We ahve been warned to get a gaurantee that they are Amazon.com approved UPS before you buy them, though. Next, if you made your DVD and are not just distributing a hollywood film, you must create a "New Product" page with the UPS and your standard Amazon white background pictures. Only "Professional" Pro Merchant Subscribers can do this. Not the Individual, Sell my stuff subscribers. This is what cost you $39.99 per month. Ah, but wait! There is more... Amazon gets 15% "Referral Fee" of your sales and $0.80 "Variable Closing Fee" per DVD sold! So you are looking at about the exact cost for selling through Amazon.com that is costs us to sell on EBay. But we were hoping for a larger audience on Amazon.com .

Shekinah on "Selling your DVDs Video on Amazon?" http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/selling-your-dvds-video-on-amazon#post-59064 Wed, 26 May 2010 14:32:33 +0000 Shekinah 59064@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ JG, I once asked a similar question and I received the following reply which may also help you. "The internet has literally millions of distribution paths and platforms that allow full retail quality distribution of your content. For commercial retail distro you could simply sell your material on iTunes or Createspace (Amazon) and there are thousands more besides. You can also host your own material on your own website. Of course this requires a website retail cart or subscription portal, both subjects somewhat outside the scope of this group but there is nothing to stop you from hosting and selling on your own site and getting that site onto the radar of millions through web promotion. Bandwidth is cheap and setting up the site can be simple and cheap if you choose carefully. But YouTube can still play a role in publicizing by functioning as a large fishing net with which to get attention. YouTube does make it possible to direct a viewer to an outside site by clicking either a link in the clip or on the channel description page. Thus you can place a promo video with clickable links (like iTunes) directly on YouTube and catch viewer interest either directly in your content or by routing them to your website or distributor portal. I hope it helps!

Look through their section on create space to get more details. jgaertner on "Selling your DVDs Video on Amazon?" http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/selling-your-dvds-video-on-amazon#post-59061 Wed, 26 May 2010 13:25:06 +0000 jgaertner 59061@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ I was wondering wherther anyone has experience selling their video productions (DVDs) on Amazon? We have just produced a 2 DVDs set on a "educational" subject "how to do..." and we have had good success selling on Ebay at Buy it Now feature. To sell on Amazon you have to have a UPC ($25.00 cost on line with vendor) for your product and pay Amazon a monthly fee $39.95 to list your custom made product. I would be very interested to hear other peoples' experiences regarding Amazon.com?

My question is if anyone can suggest a place to buy top-quality (TYG01) Taiyo Yuden discs. I have been using TYG02 quality, the best quality that I have been able to find, from Supermediastore.com, and have had reasonably good luck avoiding quality issues like skipping or hesitation. (I have found from experience that anything less than TYG02 will give me problems (on my cheap "test" player - I have to assume some of my customers will not have the best players). However, on long programs (approaching 2 hours on a disc), I still have some occasional hesitation. I encode using Compressor, and never exceed 7 MBps encode rate. Any ideas would be appreciated.

It leads me to believe that it doesn't work with DVD-R discs, but only DVD+R. DVD-R is closer to the standards for DVD, so that could be some of your problem. I have a $90 DVD recorder I bought from Wal-Mart for live video recording. It seems to be universally compatible with DVD players and Blu Ray. Honestly, if you're just trying to archive footace, MPEG2 is way more compressed than DV tape. Your best bet is to leave it on tapes for now. Alternatively, grab $75 and head to the nearest pawn shop. They'll have a dirt cheap MiniDV camcorder you can use as a tape deck for transfer. scottclark on "What is my best option?

I have a Panasonic Mini DV PVGS120 camcorder and boatloads of wonderful movies I want to save.Â But this camcorder will NOT connect to any of the 4 computers I own (firewire)Â Believe me, I have tried EVERYTHING with multiple computers, made tons of calls, dropped messages on forums, etc.Â The camcorder cannot be recognized as a device and videos cannot be imported.Â If this would work, I would be done and happy. So, I got my hands on a Sony VRD-MC5 | DVDirectÂ® MC5 Multi-Function DVD Recorder, which works like a champ with my Little Panasonic.Â Videos transfer over, and the way I understand it, the video it creates is MPEG2. To my eye, this part of the process preserves quality of the MiniDV tapes pretty well. But ... here's where things go wrong. Standard Def Videos from the MC5 will not play in new Sony BluRay DVD players.Â MPEG2 is not listed among the compatible formats for my new Sony Blu Ray, and the disk freezes up if you insert it.Â Only SONY camcorders can record in AVCHD on the MC5. So what would you do?Â <ul> <li>Dub the videos to the MPEG2 disks using the MC5, edit them in Corel Video Studio and then output a DVD*?Â </li> <li>Buy another MiniDV camcorder that the PC will recognize (I really don't want to spend the $$$ - I have a Canon HDD/HD camcorder already)</li> <li>Something I'm not thinking of?</li> </ul> * My cursory test of this method shows "muddy" video output (like VHS quality) but I cannot figure out where the quality loss is happening - or how to avoid it.
