[edit] MUTV Video-On-Demand

The statement that it launched in 2007 is false. I am the former Online Director / Webmaster for MUTV and I was running a video-on-demand system on the station's website in the 2003-2004 school year. It was mainly news oriented and selected news packages, the majority from reporter Jeannie Hayes, were encoded with Quicktime Pro into MPEG-4 formatted videos which were served from a Apple XServe located in Cudahy Hall. They were posted to the website via a flat-file PHP based CMS system as I was not allowed access to a database server at the time.

My system was replaced in 2005 or 2006 with a small YouTube channel and then in 2007 the current website & player were launched.

I will edit the main page to reflect this.

Thanks Achernow, We knew that there was a VOD service before the current one, but didn't have any dates on it. Johnl1479 (talk) 03:03, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Didn't see this here Adam until now. I originally wrote it calling it a 'new' system, meaning it replaced a former system. I remember the old system well ... it was continued into the 04-05 school year (my freshman year) then files went missing during a server move and no one wanted to do 'hours' of work to get the shows up. The statement was vague regardless, but like John said ... I didn't know how it started at the time. If I were to write anything at that time I would have said Gagner started it (obviously incorrect). Krocheck (talk) 04:05, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:MUTV-Retro-Logo.gif

Image:MUTV-Retro-Logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
