hey jay, thanks for the fast answer. i am relieved to hear your response. (first episode is around 25Mb) yes we are using a free storage space but it's at ourmedia/archives which as of now doesn't seem to have limits. if anyone else has any other opinionsi'm all codec'd ears and eyes. share Okay. trick question. but it's in regards to the size of the compressed mov file. does anyone have any recommended file sizes to stay within? Interested in hearing opinions on this in regards to the best codecs...and the overall size ideals. its changing. when i first started in 2004we tried to keep our videos under 1MB. haha then it seemd like 20mb was okay. now id say you could do 100mb if youre really offering up something i want to watch. it all depends on your hosting. if youre on a free service...your just limited by their storage/bandwidth. if youre using your own server, then you can do whatever you want to pay for. jay Yahoo!

The main thing is length not file size. You're not making a 30 minute tv show (you could, but it'd hardly be a blog). Personally I like 2 minutes stories, but as long as you keep each entry under 4-5 minutes.. - Andreas On Tue, 08 Nov 2005 21:54:00 +0100, Share [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hey jay, thanks for the fast answer. i am relieved to hear your response.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Does size matter?
I try to keep mine as small as possible just out of courtesy to viewers who are syncing up a large list of feeds to portable devices like the iPod or PSP. Thankfully in most cases, those devices are now coming with very large capacity. The PSP however still has fairly limited storage – but none the less people are using the new PSP media management software to subscribe and sync up vlogs. I think the best way to judge it is to have in mind a video quality standard you want to maintain and then do everything you can on filesize at that quality. I'm still having a few troubles finding a nice middle ground. 20-25MB seems pretty standard, I think … though I have gotten nice clips in the 10-15 range … - Dave http://www.davidmeade.com On 11/8/05, Andreas Haugstrup Pedersen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The main thing is length not file size.

[videoblogging] Re: Does size matter?
From the other end of the spectrum, I try to keep my videos under 5 minutes or 5MB. Although the numbers are getting smaller, not everybody is on cable/dsl/free or acquired wi-fi. I think that some vloggers have files that are huge because they don't know how to compress a video for other types of viewers. I don't object to large file sizes, if you have content that requires it. I fully support that. I just can't view it. Some vloggers want a certain level of video quality and that does require a high speed connection viewers. Yet, I hold out the candle for those that can create video content that is accessible to a spectrum of viewers. There is no shame in the under 5MB game. It can be a creative challenge if you work it right. As always, it isn't the size of the tool but what you do with it.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Does size matter?
Yeah but consider PSP users who maybe have a gig. Now consider how many vlogs you subscribe to ... :-P Not everyone who wants to take stuff handheld has a portable video device with so much space. It's changing ... but we're not in the world of everyone has more space/bandwidth than they need just yet. Some of us are lucky that we do ... but there are plenty of people who still use dial up, let along walk around with tens and tens of gigs in their pockets :-P On 11/8/05, Enric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Markus Sandy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: lol - my wife has far more free space on her iPod than I do on my Powerbook's 100GB drive! i wish i could download from fireant, directly to the iPod (not stored on computer) I agree.
