Does anyone know who Cirrus65000 is on youtube, and Cirrus on the RSPB Loch Garten blog is?
I need to contact them to ask how they put clips onto youtube.
I have very high resolution CCTV footage from the Wigtown Osprey Project (i.e. a few minutes is 1GB) and I need to reduce the quality to post it onto the internet. What file size do I need?
I hate computers! Can anyone out there help me?

Hello, WBO - Cirrus isn't here until later. In the meantime, I'm just learning about video and YouTube. I use a program from www.freemake.com "Freemake Video Converter". Yes, it's FREE ;-) You can cut footage into smaller pieces with it, and when you have reduced it to under 15 minutes (I would make it 14 minutes max because I've had YT divide up one that was 14+ minutes but under 15. In fact, I'd start off with clips a couple of minutes long. You'll still have your original file because Freemake works on a "copy" of it and leaves the original intact) Click the YouTube icon in Freemake and it will convert it and upload it.
I got grammatically lost in the above, hope you can understand it.
We at Loch Garten are not privileged with HD, so I'm just suggesting the above for you to try. Good luck :-)
scylla :-)
