Q about clips used with movie free sites
 

Hi

Once more about Movie Free Sites

I wanna build and submit movie free sites and have question if I will bulid them with 2 galleries with 3 or 4 (20 seconds each) clips or I must use 12 clips (10 secends each)? What's the best chose in your opinion ?


Thotmes

Right now I use 4x 30sec. clips but also 6x 20sec. or even 8x 20sec. are used. Have had one rejected cause the last 3 sec. or so of each clip was a sponsor promo ie. total video wasn't 120 seconds.

Bandwith usage? Bandwith is so cheap I really don't think about which of the forms use less.

My 2 cents

I just had one accepted on some big ll's I used two galleries 4 clips each gallery 16 seconds per clip to make sure it was at least 120 seconds (8 x 16 secs total 128). More clips, more the user has to go back to your gallery page or stay on it. I also didn't want the visitor managing to have a wank frenzy with a 30 second clip and not be in any state to visit a sponsor!! |loony|

An important point to make with movie free sites is that you should avoid going with exactly 120 seconds of video. Use a little extra. Depending on the video clips' encoding, some players will read the play length differently. The submitter may see each clip at 15 seconds on his/her end, but the reviewer's player may see 11 seconds each.

Very good point UW I had that problem recently|angry|
