Carey, There's really no need for such a large sized file. I'd highly suggest using the (free) Streamclip<http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html>to compress the video to a more manageable size. I'm compressed an hour of footage for streaming to an mp4 and it looks just dandy. Be glad to help if more questions.. *Regards, * *Tom Adams* *413.575.9707* *Williamsburg, MA* *Director/Owner* *Reelife Productions* <https://mail.google.com/mail/goog_2146952357>* website* <http://www.reelifeproductions.com/> *• cool digital media stuff • using technology to educate, entertain & enlighten since 1996 •* *Reelife Facebook Page * <http://www.facebook.com/reelife> *Reelife's Youtube Channel* <http://www.youtube.com/reelife> *Folktography by Tom website* <http://www.folktographybytom.com/> *Folktography by Tom Facebook Page* <http://www.facebook.com/folkography> *Tom's LinkedIn Page* <http://www.linkedin.com/in/tomadams2> *Tom's other Links <http://web.me.com/ReelifeProductions>* On Mon, Mar 7, 2011 at 8:37 AM, Carey Baker <msondesigns at gmail.com> wrote: > ** Be sure to fill out the survey/skills inventory in the member's area. > ** If you did, we all thank you. > > > > Good Morning HTers > > Looking for advice on video with WordPress.
