[PSUBS-MAILIST] Ray: "Launching" AVI...
OK! I got the video-editing program up, and I
made a clip I can convert to AVI. Problem is, I went kind of
overboard. At 1 minute and 15 seconds running time, It features the
launch, some surface running, a dive and surface sequence, haulout, and
trailering scenes; with transitions and music: it's pretty neat to watch; but it
takes up 7.35 megabites; and takes almost 25 minutes to download from
email! (OUCH!)
On my end, it opens up and plays in a matter of
seconds; but it would be a drag if everytime someone on your end wanted to see
it, they had to wait 25 minutes for it to download. I'm not sure how this
works (first time I've tried to do this).
What do you think, Ray?
1. Is 1:15 too long of a clip?
2. Is 7.35 megabites (about SIX floppy's worth!!!)
too much info to dedicate to this project on your site?
3. Will it take 25 minutes to download everytime
someone wants to see it on PSUBS; or just the first time you download it from
email?
Please let me know your thoughts about all this;
and don't worry about hurting my feelings, because I want this to be
right.
I can always make a shorter one with less
frills.
I'll be standing by to hear from you.
Very best regards,
Pat Regan
