Frequently Asked Questions
How is file size estimated?
File size is calculated as bitrate × duration. For example, a 5 Mbps stream over 60 seconds produces roughly 37.5 MB. Actual encoded files may differ due to compression efficiency.
What is bitrate and why does it matter?
Bitrate is the amount of data used per second of video. Higher bitrates mean better quality but larger files. Common values range from 1 Mbps (low quality) to 50 Mbps (high quality broadcast).
How accurate are the download time estimates?
The estimates assume a consistent connection speed with no overhead. Real-world times vary due to network latency, server limits, and protocol overhead.
Does this tool upload any video files?
No. This is a pure calculator — all math runs in your browser with no file uploads required.
