They are ".mpeg" files. Just right-click on the links in the members area and "save target as" - and they save to your hard drive. They do not need to be streamed. The MPEG files vary from around 50Mb to 80Mb, with one or two larger.

Are they downloadable?

Does this mean that your mpeg's are downloadable, which would mean that they could be burned to a DVD?

Thanks for that Steve : )

We should be just about approaching 6 hours of MPEGS's with this week' updates. This amounts to over 20 or so complete movies (which is pretty substantial in only 4 months). The site averages around one complete movie per week.

The shortest movie is about 5 minutes, but on average they are between 15-25 minutes long. The longer ones get broken down into 5-8 minute clips, which can easily be re-combined into the full length movie.

The long term aim is deliver all movie content via the internet rather than by tape or DVD, which we see has having little future- refecting the changes that have been brought about with MP3's and the sale of audio CD's. The idea is that people can either join on a long term basis and see everything we produce, alternatively someone can join for a month (and once the archive has built up sufficiently) download 6 or 7 movies they particularly like (for example denim, or suits, etc) and effectively produce their own "custom feature" of what they enjoy most- at about half the cost of buying a tape. So people can put together something that really suits them, for example; all outdoor, all soaping and hairwashing, all suits, or it could be "model specific", etc.

The other advantage to this is that included within the price is the availabilty of stills pictures too- something you don't get when buying tapes.

By the end of the year, as the site develops more and more, there will be around 12 hours of video and maybe 60 different movies so there will be plenty of choice.

Can someone tell me this regarding mpegs??

By The wettest - Tue 04/03/03 07:05:52 GMT

Website:

Which wetlook website (paysite) has the most mpegs or the longest in length to view if I join? Are there any websites that are going to be adding mpegs and how long are they? The reason I ask is because I've been a member of some sites and thought there were going to be more extensive mpegs before I joined.

Thanks
