Mountain Biking - Max file size you will download

Max file size you will download for a biking movie is what?
Do you like CD quality audio or are you ok with less?
Small high quality picture or large low quality picture?
Do you like to know the names of the riders during or after the movie or not at all?
What do you think about the "widescreen" style where the top and bottom is black?

I download using file share programmes and GetRight, even on 56k I have done files in excess of 200mb.... if it is good I will get a larger file.

1 - For biking...no widescreen
2 - I like to a) know the songs and b) know the riders. If you ever get a chance to watch a series of movies called NSX, the producer puts the name of the rider (if its worth knowing, some riders in the movie aren't pros, just guys caught on camera) AND the name of the song as it comes on. He will even put location at times
3 - I would much rather have high quality vid with ok sound. the video is way more important than the song


As for size...200megs is pretty big for a home vid. If you are going that big definately make a teaser. I never dl movies that size without knowing if the vid is gonna be good.

really depends on the quality riding that is in the video... I don't want to waste my bandwidth on a crystal clear picture with audio as good as a cd if the riding is no good. If the riding is good then I'd be happy to download a large file (100 meg or more).

if you can, get your hands on Cleaner 6. its a professional video compression software that allows you to compress video for many different uses. If you use it properly, you can have a large, high quality video, with nice sound, at a small file size.

well none of us are pros and video are really just for fun but we are taking a road trip somewhere this summer but for now what we have available in PA is not the hardest things ever but it all we have to work with. and whe you people say "good" I think this stuff is cool but seasoned pros wouldnot so Ill post teasers from now on.

Seasoned pros would not what?

think our jumps are that big when we think that are.

3 MB/SEC cable connection... I don't even worry about file size any more.

I'm not saying that you have to be doing 30 foot drops and all the stuff that they put in kranked vids to have a good video. Just don't put things in the video like you did in your first one where you showed kids at those stairs for like 2 minutes. That got kind of boring. I mayy have mis-worded my previous post. the train tracks in one of the vids got kind of boring as well. Just think "will this actually look good in the video or is it just fun to do?" and if you decide that it will look good in the video then put it in.

damn...takes me a good 10 mins to get 3mbs.

Since my connection is so slow, I would rather see lower quality but longer.

Thats just me. Ive downloaded 300mbs files with Getright. Took almost 3 days straight but well worth it.

3Days...dang man you on dialup?...I have dled upwards of 10gigs in a day of 'stuff' I don't think I would bother dling squat with that connection (it would remind me of the old days on bbs's with my little 300baud modem haha ;))

it was well worth the 3 days. Battle field 1942 and NFS Hot Pursuit 2 :)

I am on Dial up and my connection times out every 5 hours. Its all good cuz i am a paitent man.

On the bad days, I go 0.05kb/s. Thats when I start to get angry.
