Title: Gun Camera Film
Post by: 68ROX on August 16, 2005, 12:40:43 PM

Hi folks.  

I've had some really great films lately, and want to turn them into .AVI's that I can send to people.  My problem is that if I don't codec-compress it, the file is MONSTEROUSLY huge.

Question:  what is the best codec/compression to make the files not only email sendable friendly, as well as decent viewing quality?

Any other tips & hints would be cool as well.

Thanks!

How big are the files... and how big do you want the end product to be?

I'd like for the end product .avi to be less than 2Meg for say, 20 seconds of video.

The uncompressed file of 8 minutes of video was so huge it ate dammnear all my memory.  

I just need to know which of the codec options on the films "save as" is best, as well as compliant with video viewers (like Windows Media Player) that most PC users have.

Thanks!

You need both audio and video codecs to reach 8Mb size.
