I have several videos that I've posted on my dnn websites, and I would really like to optimize them as much as possible. The .swf files (the only format my skin seems to support well) are upwards of 20mb and are taking a fair amount of load time. The source files are .avi, are in the 220mb ballpark, and I'm converting to .swf using h.263, 780kbps, 352x288, 15fps; mp3, 64kbps as my conversion settings. If there is a way to shrink the .avi files before I make the conversion without loosing too much fidelity, I'm fine with that. Ultimately, I'd like to be able to make the videos larger and eliminate several artifacting issues, but so far to make that happen, I have to convert with setting that output files that are much to large.
Any hints or tips or references would be GREATLY appreciated.
Also, I've tried uploading the videos using the files tool and it times out. I end up having to use ftp. Anyone else experience this problem, or is it just me?
