Hi everyone. I'm monitoring some scientific experiment, and I'm recording the video with VirtualDub. Here how it looks like:
The picture is almost static. And i don't care about the quality. All i need - is to read the numbers on the tester. I already asked this on another forum, but i would like to hear more opinions.
As you see, the video data rate is very low - 3kB/s - so i can record 26 days non-stop on 5 gigabytes i have left. The only thing i'm worried about - could be there some problem with long video? I already recorded couple of experiments, and i was able to open the files in regualr player. But those were about 3-4 h ours long. I'm going to record a very long experiment, that can go for 2-3 days non-stop. And i really need it to be monitored. I used Xvid 1-pass as video compression. I even set up 2 computers to record the same scene, in case something goes wrong.
But i'm afraid that once i finished recording i will not be abot to open the files.
Could there be such problem?
For example, can regular player open video file which is 2 days long , and play and scroll it fine?
TIA.
