View Full Version : video compression?

Hello,

Can anyone point me towards a utility that will compress Quicktime videos
for a size suitable for email? I would swear I did just that a few months
ago using something already on my laptop...a Windows utility, I thought. I
took a video with my camera and want to send it to family--but can't seem to
locate the utility! Thanks,

SEC

===========================
Instead of compressing the file you
may find it useful to upload it to one
of the following sites.

"Dropload"
http://www.dropload.com/


"YouSendIt"
http://www.yousendit.com/

"SendSpace"
http://www.sendspace.com/

=============================
As an experiment I just uploaded a 9.75
MB file to YouSendIt. It took 4 minutes to
upload and less than 1 minute to download.

Do you have a better / faster method?
