Vimeo has a much better encoding than YouTube. You will get significantly better quality with Vimeo and that would make a good transition until you need the CDN. The price is worth the ease of use. I can’t complain about Vimeo, good option.

WordPress plugins are great to deliver the video. I’m assuming you are on shared hosting and are paying for storage/bandwidth or are on an “unlimited” hosting plan. If either is true, I would recommend looking at using a CDN for your video distribution. You will get better response time and faster “progressive downloads” to your views.
Most are pretty inexpensive, but Amazon has just opened their network for free. They give you a certain amount of storage and bandwidth to use for free. If you end up using more than the allotment, then you are only billed for usage. Pretty slick way to do CDN and you get the structure and backbone of Amazon.
Check out Amazon Web Services.
There are WordPress plugins designed to help implement their services for delivery. It is an excellent and affordable solution.

Gentlemen, remember where you are. You are on the Largest Social Media network for like minded people on the web. The Cow is a social media network. So, does social media work for your business? YES! The issue is not DOES Social Media work, the issue is are you using the RIGHT network.
Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Twitter, etc are networks that have value and can generate a ROI. But they are not for every business and they don’t generate the same return for all users.
Embrace social media! Just make sure your attached to the ones that generate profitable business and returns!

I have had a reseller account with HostNine for years. I have found their support and response to be excellent and their hosting packages are very competitive. I would highly recommend them.

For uploading video via wordpress, I would recommend two options. If using youtube is a viable option, upload your video to youtube and use the youtube url to oembed the video directly into your post or page. WordPress will interpret the url and insert the video without you having to add any plugin to the site. Simply add the url to the youtube video on its own line in the post and WordPress handles the rest.
If Youtube is not a desired option, then I suggest using jwplayer from longtailvideo. It is by far the easiest and most used video player around and it will play most any kind of video, flash, mp4, aiv, etc. They offer a free player and a payed player. You have to upload some files to your hosting server to use the player and then upload your video. I recommend using an ftp client like fireFTP for mac or Filezilla for a PC. Once you have uploaded your files, use the wizard on jwplayer site to create your embed code and copy/past the code into you page/post. This gives you more control over your players look and feel.
Either way works well. It is a matter of preference.

I would recommend using https://www.psd2html.com/. They are able to convert psd files to wordpress files. Whenever this is done “automatically,” you never get as clean a theme as if you create a custom theme or modify a theme to fit your design.
My suggestion is to find a theme that has the design layout you are looking for and them modify it to fit your color scheme and graphics. This will require some manipulation of the theme code and css, but it is cheaper and easier than coding a theme from scratch.

If you have it narrowed down to a single clip, try re-digitizing the clip from your tape/media. We have experienced similar issues and found that the tape had an issue with timecode/sync/etc and had to do a dub of the tape and then re-digitize to correct the issue.

You need to create a multiclip sequence. If you take all three clips and combine them into a multiclip, you can view all three angles in your Viewer as you play. You can then let the timeline play and cut between angles on the fly.
