vid uploading

[andrew7]

I don't like the you-tube sites. How do I upload a video in wav or similiar format from my computer and attach it to a post. Its small stuff under 10meg, I have dial-up.

these cars are so popular, it may end up on some forum and kill our bandwidth.



If it's a one time deal, you can send 'em to me and I'll FTP and post it...



Alternatively, maybe I can come up with something where only members who are logged in can view uploaded files.



Let me think about that.

Thanks Mazda,

I don't know how it exactly works but I liked downloading R1's .wmv file. I'd start in the evening and let it go all night. I'm getting things setup to start videos of my BEC7. Is there an alternative to you-tube or google-video? Would limiting the size, say less than 20meg be feasible or only posting videos of your car only? I understand if we can't but I thought I'd ask.

There are other alternatives to google and youtube that don't compress your file... let me see what I can find.

It is easy to download my files because they are on a server that my web page is on...so I can host my own videos and don't have a bandwidth restriction per se. That is part of what makes it easy to put up the large video files. Andrew, I am not sure if you want to spend the money or not, but if you could find an inexpensive web hosting service that does not limit bandwidth too much you could host your own videos as well. Just a thought...
