Hi Carey,

No need for such a large file. There are compression options without loosing significant quality. I should mention that every time you compress a file the lower the quality, so you need to find the sweet spot. 

I would also recommend Handbreak, additionally you may want to try the following parameters for optimal web delivery:

H.264 codec at size 1280×720, bit rate 3000-5000 kbits/sec, key frame every 30 frames, AAC at 128kbps in stereo for sound. 

Hope this helps

>> Looking for advice on video with WordPress. What are the ways of sharing large size (5-8 gigs) video on a Wordpress site? Is VideoPress the only way? How much bandwidth do I need to allow? Should I load on a dedicated server and stream from there? Im familier with Youtube and Vimeo premium service. Are there any free (open source option) or is it just all premium options.
