--- Comment #7 from Tomasz W. Kozłowski <[email protected]> --- So I checked the OGV file, and it looks like there is no possibility for me to decrease its size without decreasing (a.k.a. damaging) the quality even further--I am already using "ffmpeg2theora -v 7 -a 6 --optimize" to convert the file. If the file is too big to be hosted on Wikimedia Commons, then I would be quite OK with closing this bug as RESOLVED FIXED, because the encyclopaedic value of this video is probably not too big; we can always refer to the White House website if a reader would want to watch the whole ceremony, and the most important part of it (the inaugural address) is already there on Commons. Coincidentally, the maximum size of the file as reported by the command line seems to equal the [[memory address#Word size versus address size|word size]] of a 32-bit computer: 4,294,967,296 bytes, or 4 gibibytes (GiB). Should we assume that this is the maximum size of a file that could now be hosted on any of the Wikimedia wikis, and Commons in particular? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
