Dear friends,
I have an amazing improvisations video for Dr. Mamdouh El Gebaly. I would really like to share it with you and everyone else on Youtube.
The problem is, the file size is huge (505 Mb)!!!!
If you know of a method to reduce the size of this AVI format video to a reasonable one, your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Hatem

I Hatem
in youtube there are 2 limits: max file size 1 gb and max 10 minuts
if you want to make a faster upload, you have to convert your video before in flv (flash video)
on pc I used a free sofware, super from erightsoft
on mac I use ffmpegx
If your video is more then 10 minuts you can cut it in more episodes, if I well remember also youtube can make this thing, just read the guide in their website
ale.

Hi.
It's better that you upload it in Rapidshare...
You can split it to pieces with WinRar (max file size is 200Mb in RS)

OK guys,
I was able to upload it on this link. I hope smeone willbe able to reuce the size.
As a friendly waring, this is a huge file (500 Mbyte), but its worthwhile watching.

Hi Jazzchiss,
Please ignore the 2Share link. Corridoio was kind enough to take care of it.
If you go ahead and click on the youtube link above, you will be able to watch the video.
Best regards,
Hatem

Hatem -- thanks for getting this posted ! Mamdouh's a beautiful player -- first time I've heard him. He's got a lovely approach, and the left hand slides are so cool. I seem to say this like every other time somebody posts a link to a taksim -- very inspiring.

Best Regards..Paul
