stupid question about embedded videos
 

ok, totally noob question:

I embed 1 gb movie on my stie that is hosted on say youtube, do I burn 1 gb every time the movie is watched? the answer should be no but I want to make sure


also what's the most elegant way to embed more than 1 movie per page, can I have like 20 embeded movies on my site but with smaller "thumbs" not the actual window size of the video

There are no such thing as stupid questions.

Only stupid people that ask questions. :)


I'll leave the answering of your question to someone less stupid than me.

1gb? that's too large a file...

that was just an example, I guess most of the videos I'd be embedding are 4-10 Mb

The answer to your question is no you don't burn the bandwidth. The vid host burns it! Speaking of hosting videos, put yours up on http://www.VideoSlacker.com . :thumbsup
