Hi,
If i'm going to have a large movie streaming from a website which format would any of you recommend me using for 1) having the smallest file size and 2) for the most common;y used format which most people would already have a plug-in for?
Thanks in advance,
wired

wiredsj,
I would reccomend using either the Windows Media Video format (*.wmv), or the Real Player 10 format (*.rm). I've used both, and am currently using Windows Media.
To create Windows Media video, use Windows Movie Maker 2 (download from Microsoft), or to create Real Media Video, download the FREE Real Producer 10 BASIC from the following link...
http://www.realnetworks.com/products/producer/
(Real Producer will only convert pre-created videos, and has several restrictions, but is overall a good program)
I would play around with the quality settings to find the best match for you available web-space
Good Luck!

Windows media player is almost on every computer that runs windows, unless its a linux promotion site, or a anti-windows site, windows media player is the best
