Btw, as far as I remember you run 30-60+ secs clips but when you use mpegs may wanna keep it around 20 secs otherwise files may get too big ie. longer d/l time for impatient jerkers and compress as much as you can without making it look too bad. Then again stats you posted in the past could be hard to beat even for yourself no matter which format you run them in hehe so you may wanna just stick to what's already working for you unless you just want to test for your own satisfaction
