Hallo everybody, I'm not so frequently at this forum because I always try to understand and realise all "traps" connected with web and sites by my self (our oldies says: "People learn all its life and die...stupid!"). But now I got one specific question: Will somebody be so kind and count and explain to me HOW MUCH Mb OF TRAFFIC WILL USE ONE VIDEO CLIP IN LENGTH OF 1 MINUTE (60 seconds). Thanks! Merry Christmas, emienco

depends on how fast (or slow) the users connection speed is.

Thanks Chrishirst, but maybe you can tell me some approximately amount. I know that alot of people still use modem, some of people use DSL or 3G wireless but maybe exsisting some approximately amount (i.e. 20 Mb or 100 Mb). I know that one movie approximately use about 700 Mb of traffic. Am I right? Thanks once again and Merry Christmas to you and whole family. Best Regards, emienco.

Put some videos on your site and test.

Don't most vid editors have a "clock" which approximates download speed in seconds based on connection speed? I know Adobe's suite has it for still images and Flash animations.

HO,HO,HO (I'll use the Santa's "shout"), thank you very much friends! Without any quoted number you are help me (I suppose unintentionaly). Let's resolve (if I'm understand your words correct?). I got upload/download speed defined by my IT provider (for DSL in my case). Speed is defined as Mb/second. One minute got 60 seconds, multiple it with amount of Mb and I'll get total amount of Mb used by one video in length of 1 minute. Yes!!!! Great!!!!! Thank you very much again! To you and your families I wish all the best in New Year, especially great health because this is a real wealth! Have a great year my friends! Best Regards, emienco.
