Hi Folks, Got a major question here, if anyone can help, it would be
appreciated:
Someone called today and wants to convert 20 hours of miniDV footage for the
web each month,
From what I know of Flash, once you get files of a certain size and length
of time, the audio portion no longer syncs. His market will be on both Mac
and Windows computers. Mostly the videos are talking head stuff, no fast
motions. But I got concerned both with the potential file sizes and server
options, since they initially were interested in non-streaming servers.
Here are the questions I had and was hoping someone could help me find the
right answers:
1. The videos are in 1 hour segments. Compressed for broadband, roughly how
large are these miniDV files going to be? 100 megs???
2. can they be served as downloadable/flash videos, or are they still going
to need a streaming server [assuming there are only a max of 10 computers
watching at any given time and you are not taxing the non-streaming server].
3. Does anyone have any idea how long it would take to compress a 1 hour
minidv for the web on a fast desktop? I currently use a G5 dual with Cleaner
6.5 but would upgrade to a new computer...
4. Are there better options using Breeze or some other streaming that makes
a lot more sense? And if so, where can I find pricing on what I'm trying to
do including hosting for these large files? They estimate there may be a
total of 150 hours of education online at any given time...
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
