Yeah, I noticed that soon after sending it out. I corrected it on my 
blog but hadn't gotten around to sending a note to the list, so thanks 
for being on top of it.

Hi Andy

Others may have caught this. But you got my attention when your post
listed the extreme compression example as 292 bits. Wow! Actually, I
show 288 kB once I downloaded it.

Good work!

Hi everyone,

One of my video blog viewers asked me for an explanation of various
quicktime compression techniques I use to make my online videos smaller
for different audiences. I've just published my response:

http://www.andycarvin.com/archives/2006/04/andys_video_blogging.html

In this demonstration, I start with a 10 megabyte video shot in avi
format, 30 frames per second, 640x480 pixels, 16 bit stereo. I then
produced seven compressed versions of it, including ones that utilize
varying frame rates, screen sizes, compression codecs, and audio
compression.  The most compressed version I created is 97% smaller than
the original avi video, and is potentially quite suitable for video
blogging in low-bandwidth situations around the world. Some examples:

Original uncompressed video (10 megs):

Significant compression (1.8 megs, 82% reduction):
http://www.andycarvin.com/video/demo-3ivx.mov

Extreme compression (292 bits, 97% reduction):
http://www.andycarvin.com/video/demo-3ivx8bit160.mov

Here's a chart featuring all of the videos and their settings:

Anyway, I hope this is useful for those of you exploring the world of
video blogging.

thanks,
andy

[DDN] comparison of video blogging compression techniques
