10mb? No way anyone is going to want to dl that.

I'm encoding it right now ... looks like it's going to be 1.3GB uncompressed and maybe 400MB compressed with DivX

edit: projected file size just went down to 260MB

it's at 2 minutes done out of 40 total (encoding in VDM)

400MB for a what 10 minute clip? you're kidding right? about a low quality version to ease the BW limits on the hosts? I could care less about the video quality as long as it's decent and fast-foward/rewindable.

10-20 meg wmv should do it.

Also, I can host, but only if others host too to ease the load

In fact, how about we keep links to mirrors in the OP?

UPLOADING TO THE ATOTFTP

It's a 566MB 864x480 file in .avi

Half the size of the original file but it still looks pretty awesome

3 hours to upload

feel free to dl it and compress it further :)

:cool: Can't wait.

Would someone mind PMing me the ATOTFTP info? It looks like the thread is gone.

Edit:

Got it. Thanks, Amol. :beer:

BTW, I am also encoding a 35MB DivX copy of the video ... don't know what the quality is going to be like but hopefully, it will be a good alternative to the 550MB file.

35 mb :thumbsup:

should be done in about 3 minutes

if it looks good, i'm cancelling and deleting the 550MB one and uploading the 35mb one

edit: oops, more like 10 minutes

i thought it was already on the second pass
