trueGODtv :: Help
We have changed our name, tightened our focus, upgraded our tech, and are speaking with a younger voice to this generation. 1 John 5:50 ASV: And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true GOD, and eternal life. What is your current Global Reach for trueGOD.tv? Our desire is to reach the world with the Good News of Jesus Christ in as many languages, cultures and regions as the Lord will allow. In the limited time we have been broadcasting Internet Television, we have reached over 200 regions/countries within a months time, about 50-90 daily. Over 7.7 million hits in a month, within the top 100,000 websites globally more than 5 times. We have content in 117 languages and growing, and the site can translate into 26 different languages at a click natively. We want thousands of strong Christian teaching, preaching, music, entertainment videos in every language. About 94% of the world speak in the top 389 languages. So our goal is to have both content and the translation of the site in 389 languages. Simple right? Pray for us, our technology currently can handle it, but the laborers and finances are few. It takes about 7 hours to translate our core site into a new language. Around $50. It takes $30 to target a specific country with the gospel for 1 month. Pray for us, and help if you can. Donate or Sponsor. Thank you. BUGS: Paging Broke on Bottom of some areas? Yes we know, we are working on it.

Some of our news, messages dealing with sexuality, torture and persecution of Christians. And although important, may not be appropriate for younger eyes. So we have implemented a Family Friendly Rating system that will work with your current filtering system in your computer. It will flag content that is rated PG-13 You will not be SHOCKED, nor will your children by videos automatically playing on trueGODtv. This is still in Beta, please give us time to review our existing content and rate accordingly. Family Friendly Ratings will be available on the upload of videos for members to edit existing videos or new videos soon. New Family Friendly Ratings Icons: If you are setting up custom filtering, filter on URL's that contain pg=13 or pg=17 , not the image. The image will appear on pages before you get to a filtered video. So the warning icon can appear anywhere in our site. The URL is in the page of the content. Help! I can't up load my video.
The following are allowed video formats: 3gp mp4 mov asf avi flv wmv mpg mpeg
mpeg4 xvid divx 3gpp Here are the standards that we currently suggest. As bandwidth increases for views these settings will be modified. FLV is the format that all of your videos are converted to on upload. So if you upload a correctly formatted FLV, it will be available much faster, than one we must convert. The sizes below are our new standards (Dec,2009). They provide the best for the most. (Best Quality for Greatest Viewership). They are only suggestions. We will detect the size and quality of your video and automatically create the smaller sizes. We are implementing dynamic bandwidth testing on the fly for connected viewers. So each will get the best quality their bandwidth can stand. (currently in Beta Testing)
All aspect ratio should be set for 16:9 fitted to that size. The 4:3 ratio is old school. We are still supporting 4:3 but prefer 16:9. * Mobile Steaming available first quarter, 2010. ** Recommended Standard Size for greatest viewership/quality based on current technology and global user bandwidth. *** Only Available for HD accounts or Pay-Per-View. Contact info@trueGOD.tv for details. Larger formats will use dynamic streaming. The smaller formats progressive streaming. Mobile format will also use dynamic streaming. HD accounts or Pay-Per-View include SecureToken anti-ripping technology and encrypted streaming for content protection. End to End protection and transport security. There are a few possible reasons. First if you just uploaded it, please check for it under your profile. Click on My Videos at the top right. It may still be converting also. Or if you just made a change to the video, corrected a typo, added a channel, it has to be reviewed again, and is hidden from public view until this occurs. Sorry, no white list for this. Another possible reason, is we moved it to a category that is more appropriate for the viewing audience. We will do that at will, and to reduce the SPAMMING of some posters, who want those in China to view their video that has nothing to do with China.

The current approach is to have your content at many locations, it is like being on multiple TV networks. Our focus is narrow, Global Christian Television Network. We are not trying to be MySpace, Facebook or any of the other community sites. Because of that, Our flavor may be strong, but it draws a crowd that you may not be currently serving. Our global viewiership is measures simply by how many are coming from the US. Normally is it between 15-50%. (we actually monitor 4 different analytics programs on viewship) We have a strong viewiership from countries that it is dangerous to be a Christian. We have numerous languages and are constantly adding more. Not your traditional TV. And here are some simple thoughts about it. The first comes from our friends at desiringGod.org
trueGODtv is not trying to compete with our brother/sister sites in TV ministry. Each of us have a unique audience. That is why we launched LiveTV. These are the public channels of Christian TV networks around the world. We only link to the public stream, not the Pay-Per-View, or subscription content of these sites. If we have inadvertently linked to a restricted stream, or a network wants us to remove their link in LiveTV, we will remove it promptly. The streams always includes links back to the parent TV network, to encourage direct viewiership and strengthening of our fellow Christian TV networks. Any Christian TV network that broadcasts 12 or more hours per day, and site that meets our Statement of Faith requirements are welcome. Please send potential additions to LiveTV to, webmaster@trueGOD.tv. Please include URL to network and direct public link page URL.
