| What format video files would ye recommend for video file downloads off the internet. I am looking for the best tradeoff between quality, download time and size. I usually use.mpeg but was wondering if any of ye use other formats. |

| Films, as in short video clips, about 30 secs long taken from a DVD. |

Some people swear by quicktime, the size is usually smaller. I would offer two version either way, like quicktime and mpeg. Also take a look at divx encoding. ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |

Thanks for your help. I usually use .mpeg. What about .wmv? Also, any tools that anyone recommend on the internet for edit such video files?
