Video quality help

[Dave A]

Hi all. I need help with my Central Line videos. I can do 2 things. High Res and Big download size or Low Res and Small download size. Please view via links below. Both are WMV format. This video is over 2 mins long so its quite big, others will be 30 secs - 2.5 mins, so 12 MB is maximum.

High Res Video, 10 MB approx -

Low Res Video, 4 MB approx -

Thanks, David :mrgreen:

EDIT: Thanks to all who "polled" and gave comments. I have decided to go with a med - high res, download sizes are between 3 and 7 MB, depending on the length of the video.

I would go for High Res although it will take longer to download the quality is far better than the low res.

Thanks. Just thought though :x 10 MB x (at least) 25 videos, 250 MB hock: Maybe a medium Res or a higher on the longer videos and a med on the shorter?

High resoultion for me! it would be rather usless in low resoultion seeing bits and bobs of things...

 

[Angus]

Definitely higher res for me. It's better to have to download a big file but be able to watch the video than a smaller download but the quality's so low it's pretty much useless.

It would be better if sounds were included as well... :P

 

[Dave A]

I know! If they had sounds :roll: I can put some backround music in

As long as the background music isn't unsuitable IMO.

I have an Idea, CRAZY FROG! Ring ding ding ding, na, ne, na, na, (Gunshots in backround!)

Seriously: I can't think of any and I can't be bothered to edit them for a third time. They'll have to do.

Hmmm.... Then if there's no train sound, then maybe no sound would be better to reduce the download size...

If you want 'uber' high quality, you could always pay for hosting from us (and then you can get good speeds too :P)
