tg1911 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 I found this one macmarauder.Ourmedia.orgNot sure if it's what you're looking for, but something to check out.What’s the maximum file size I can upload?You could, in theory, upload a 5-gigabyte video file. (If you’ve got a dial-up connection, good luck with that!) Limitations on file size are mostly practical ones: the larger the file, the smaller the number of people who will download it.However, be aware than large files — anything above 10 or 20MB — must be uploaded with the Ourmedia Publisher tool (click on Tools in the main nav), not through the Web site's publish my media pages.What kinds of formats do you support?In general, we prefer that you publish files encoded with open standards. For example, H.264 MPEG4 is an amazing new compression technology that can be sliced and diced by our automatic derivation engine into any number of formats. This is not the case with closed, proprietary formats like Windows Media Video, which can’t be converted into any other format.As a general rule, we like WAV files for sound and MPEG for video. The higher the quality of the source material, the more options we can provide to our users. But we will accept all formats: MP3, Ogg Vorbis, Real, Windows Media, DivX and open-source video standards.Technical FAQ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tg1911 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 That's what I did, Googled.Saw a write up on the MSNBC site, and checked it out.Looked like the most promising, of the bunch.Good luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Naming is hard Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Would this work http://www.megaupload.com/ ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
quickbasicguru Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 You could host it yourself or use Bittorrent.If enough people are downloading it, Bittorrent could be a great solution... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
