Just finished a commercial for a local jeweler shot on a DVX100 (standard mode) and edited in Vegas 4.0. Music was written and composed by a good musician friend of mine. It's a 30 second spot and rendered into MPG1 it's 4megs in lenth. Anyone have any webspace to share long enough to get it shown here at the forums? Thanks in advance....

Yes, email me the file and I can host it on my mac.com iDisk. Apple's servers are very fast and I'll provide the link. It will only be available for download, I won't stream it.

No probs.. I'm uploading something to my university webspace tomorrow..

If you send an e-mail with the file attached to kieranc@btinternet.com and a carbon copy to kc281@cam.ac.uk (the previous one's webmail with a limit of 6MB's, I'm not sure how close I am to the limit, but it makes things easier if it's in cyberspace, if not then I'll burn it to cd)

Should go up around midday GMT (in about 9 hours) as I have a contract law supervision at 10:30am, for which I am working though the night :o)

I'll drop you an e-mail as soon as it's up.

Thank you- both of you.
I sent it to Jeff as I saw his reply first.
I lied it's not completed- forgot to add it needs color correcting, audio tweaking, and text. I'm a bit nervous about showing my work as it's only the 2 time any of you have seen it. The others were clips from weddings I did.

Update: Jeff, your email rejected it- said it was too large. I'm gonna try sending it to Kieran.

I'll have to check with Apple today. The only thing I can think is that your IP is on a SPAM list that Apple has blocked. That's happened in the past. I upload files frequently and usually this is never a problem, my mailbox is 15mb.

Kieran, thank you kindly!

Jeff why would it block my IP for SPAM?!

why would it block my IP for SPAM?!


That one's easy - someone with a similar IP number sends an e-mail that someone else indicates is spam killing all similar IP numbers from sending an e-mail.

I have a similar situation with AOL right now. I keep getting "address not found" and "recipient refused e-mail" messages returned from AOL for spams sent by someone who is using ficticious mailbox names with MY domain name. I KNOW they did not come from my domain so someone is spoofing the return address and, lucky me, they picked one of my domains.

I'm afraid that the next time I have to really send something to AOL that my good mail will be rejected as spam - even though I have NEVER sent a spam.
