One can "publish" the movie SMIL file or still frames simply by editing shell scripts. Scripts are installed at $prefix/share/kino/scripts/publish/ $prefix is typically /usr or /usr/local There is a frame.sh and a project.sh . Kino passes as command arguments the file name of the xml document or still frame followed by the project ID returned by the server followed by the the project name entered into the new project dialog.

Kino comes with the ability to publish a movie or still frame to the http://blip.tv/ website. When publishing the movie, it uses ffmpeg2theora to convert it to Ogg Theora format. See the Kino screencast that demonstrates how this works and the results you can expect to achieve.
