Hey Alan,

I just saw your post regarding the flash videos on your site-- I was actually
just looking around to find out what a reasonable size is for flash video to be
accessible online. If you don't mind, what type of file sizes are your
videos? (roughly)

I'm just trying to finish up a website video tour-- I've got an existing 2.3MB
swf that I was going to bring into flash & still need to lay audio on top of.
After I record the audio, I'm planning to bring in the swf & the audio file &
export as flv. I'm a flash novice so I'm really just trying to make sure that
I'm going to end up with something usable before I invest the time going down
this road.

Thanks for any advice you have!
Jessica

Oh okay-- so an end-product video file that is 25-80MB streams fine for the
average viewer... I just wanted to know what was reasonable and what was
ridiculous so I could stay within the reasonable range :)

My video is only 3 min long :) I just really don't know much at all about
streaming video online & wasn't sure what kind of file size to aim for.

thanks so much!

Hi,
My video files range from 25mb to 80mb in size. I use and xml video player to
stream the videos.
Ive no idea what a maximum size would be. I try to keep them around the 20
minute mark.
Hope this helps
Alan
