Are short video clips possible

Muhammad,
Does the TBN have the ability to post and view short video clips ?
Say around 1 MB to 1.25 MB, viewable with Windows Media Player.

Hi Mark,

If you have your own server, it can be any size... but max of 100k for upload to TBN... so if you blink your eye... you'd miss it... /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

So to answer your question... no... not on TBN but elsewhere ok... due to limit of 100k for any upload no matter what it is...

John,
Thank you for your reply. I really didn't think it was possible, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
I also felt that size would definately be an issue.
Isn't it always ????? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

MossRoad's Home Page gives an example on bypassing TBN's limit on attachment size. Dave had posted some video links of his mighty PT425 on his own web page, then gave a link to them in his posts here on TBN. This would be a work-around.

Chris,
Now that you mention it, I remember viewing those a while back. Thanks for the reminder.

As Doc pointed out, I have some videos on my own web space. My ISP gives me 1 e-mail account and 30Meg of web space for about $18.00 per month. I could get it for less if I paid by the year. They are a local company and give me great service. But, at 28.8, it is a little slow uploading 300 to 400K video files. That's why they are so grainy.... to save me upload time, to save you download time and to save some space. Those things really add up to a lot of space after a short while. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif I probably have 15 or 20 megs just in videos and pictures(other stuff for my family, besides tractor stuff, too). So, I just FTP them up there, then get the URL, then make a link to it in a post at TBN. It works pretty well. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

P.S. You can get to my web site by clicking on my PT425 animation in my signature /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
