My wife and I enjoy all aspects of video. We are doing more with it each day. Watching what others have created on this website is a great joy. There is some great talent here on Vimeo. We try to keep up and continue to improve.

    Wow, Thanks very much Perrone. I have been trying to get a grasp on the things you mentioned and you have made it much more clear to me. I appreciate the offer to ask more questions. I could sure use the help. I need to re -read what you wrote so I can let it sink in. Thanks again for your response.

    Thank you, yes I agree. I am trying out a few things. I am curious about how much quality is lost when the file is made much smaller. It may be that I just don't have a complete understanding of how it all works. Thanks again for your input Paulo.

    Hello, I am trying to learn on my own about video. I was wondering if it is better for me ( quality wise and progressive download for viewing my video ) to upload a 5 minute video .mpg file 1gb in size. Or should I encode my video using windows media encoder, knocking it down to 167mb. My editing software is pinnacle 14 HD. When I export from pinnacle to my PC as a file, it is an mpeg-2 1080p. I thought I could upload that file to vimeo with out encoding it. Any input is appreciated. This is the video encoded... http://vimeo.com/7506638
