lower file size for a capture

[matneaves]

ive got a game capture of my daughter driving 1st attempt in toca 3, and need it small enough to upload

original file size is 3 gigs, ive converted it to svcd so she can show her mum but i need it small to upload

i got xvid and divx codecs installed, ive got tmpeg encvoder, vdub and its confusing me in vdub

i click on the configure when selecting xvid compression type in the length (3 mins 47 sec) and try changing file size to 5 or 10 meg and it always comes up about 25 meg

is there a 1 click or whatever solution where if i put in i want it 5 megs itll sort it to be that size?

AutoGK should make it easy.

Use a lower bitrate.

file size = running time * bitrate

Did you compress the audio too?

[matneaves]

yeah i used mp3 layer, and using the calc in the xvid config but still the same

tried that autogk thing it said it was analyzing but just sat there

[guns1inger]

Did you check the script to see what it was doing ?
Did it open a virtualdub window ?

A : Input total time length of video
B : Input audio type and bitrate
C : Back at top , enter max file size in kb ... 20mb = 20000kb

In the middle will be reported average video bitrate required to acquire max file size as entered .

If audio is already compressed , consider "direct stream copy"

the script said analysing , just sat there for 10 mins

its uncompressed avi
