Hi Cindy,

For producing a short video that can be attached to an email, click on the Produce tab, then the WMV box. Then click on and look at the dropdown menu with it’s many profiles to choose from.
For a 3 minute video, you’ll probably have to go with 320x240 to get it to fit as an attachment.
Try the Widows Media Video 9 for Local Area Network (768K) profile first (towards the bottom of the list), to see what size it yields for one of your short videos. You could try the Windows Media Video 9 DVD Quality(1600K) 720x480 if it’s a short one minute video. And there’s a 1400k one in there to somewhere.
You just have to experiment with them a little, and produce a few videos to streaming quality, at different “Kb’s”, to get the best quality within the allowable MB attachment range each particular video.
Then just stream a few to yourself to see how they behave.

Hey Cranston,

Thanks for the tips. I did find that WMV box but I just didn't know which one to pick. The quality of the 320X240 digital video was pretty poor even when I reduced the size of the video player window and the 720X480 size was too big to send. I'll have to figure something out or reduce the time of the video to 1 minute.

Thanks for your help!
Cindy

Hi Cindy (one of the first members of SMWOV),

Hey Y'all,

Thanks for all the help! I was able to read through all the "butter jokes" and create the video and send it on to my daughters. They really appreciated it.

And I'll try to do better reading and participating in the forum as I get back to my video editing projects.

I do miss the sideshow!

Cindy

I have a couple of free web sites and would probably upload the video to one of them and then just e-mail the link. However, most of them have limits, so you may not be any better off. __________________________________
