First, THANKS for this great piece of software!!!
In the following months I will be doing a lot of filming but I definitely don't need audio. I wonder if I can save space (ie produce smaller files) by disabling audio.
I know I can use Canon's "disable audio" option and this works for native H.264. But...
1) is there a way to disable audio for RAW video recording (or any/all video recording in ML anyway)?
2) and most importantly, would an audio-less video file occupy less space than a video with audio?
Thanks!
WAV bandwidth calculation is not exactly rocket science:
Sampling rate x Bit depth (x2 for stereo) = 44,100 Hz x 4 Byte = 176,400 Byte/s = 172.27 KiByte/s.
BTW: CD data rate is base for SD and CF flash memory speed index: 600x = 600x CD data rate. THey use 150 KiByte/s because of error correction, though.
OK thanks, from your reply I understand (correct me if I'm wrong) that I save 176,400 Bytes for each second of video when using "disable audio" in RAW video, right?
Save and save :) 176400byte is 0.18 megabyte which is nothing compared to raw recording which is around 90mb/s.
ok so basically it makes no difference ;)
Thanks!!
