    Question about sending big files

    So, I have some movies on my Iphone I am trying to email to a friend, but they are too big to go in my email. is there a way to upload videos like you do pictures on imageshack? Help would be appreciated. Sorry if this is something trivial that you all know how to do already, and I am out of the loop!

    Dropbox, Mediafire. If you have a webserver, maybe upload it there.

    Hosting is very cheap. I'm poor and I've got some.

    SugarSync.com, it's a file sharing service used primarily by LGBTQ men. Willie is familiar.

    I think it would be more accurate to say people who don't know shit about the Internet don't have web hosting

    If you are using windows use windows movie maker. Other day I had to shrink a 600mb file to 10mg for work email and the video was still very good quality. Took me about 5 mins and I had never used the program before.

    Disregard the above if quality is super important.

    I trade music files with friends, so for our regular group of people, we all used FIVER.COM to pay $5 to a guy who would increase our DROPBOX files through referals up to around 18GB or so, then have a regular group of people in DROPBOX all sharing files.

    Otherwise, if we just want to send to individuals, we use WETRANSFER. It takes a bit of time to set it up, but then its easy from then on.

    Les,

    This is actually one of those situations where GOOGLE is going to give you several suggestions, however Weiss is better off asking people which method THEY prefer and why, than Weiss actually trying out every GOOGLE recommendation until he found one he likes.

    Google can also be an awful resource for reviews, especially for digital products and online services. Most keyword phrases with the term "review" are worth money (people making those searches typically have their wallet out), and lots of people set up fake review sites for affiliate commissions, then SEO them to the top.

    So yeah, it makes perfect sense to ask these sort of questions to people you know on a messageboard. I'm not sure why I'm explaining this to a miserable drunk who just bitches for the sake of it, but there you go.

    If you have access to an actual Mac or Linux machine use split to segment the videos to however many segments you need to reach x size. What are the size limitations of the email you are trying to use? If it's gmail you can only do 25mb attachments, and the total email size has to be 25mb or under (meaning if the video is like 500 mb you are going to segment your video 500/25=20 segments in total)

    Here is the command line shit you enter. Move the video from iphone to mac, get it to the desktop (makes shit easier) and we will assume your video is 135 mb, which I think is pretty much going to be the upper range for anything you'd shoot.

    Go to accessories/utilities/terminal it brings you to a black screen type the following (bolded text type exactly as you see it, hit enter. Also I am assuming the name of your movie file is weiss.mov, size 135 mb name it whatever you like, when you enter the terminal commands make sure you specify the right suffix. So say your movie is .mp4 it's weiss.mp4 if it's called hotheavyjungleaction.flv type hotheavyaction.flv and you can rename the movie while on the desktop before you split it up)

    cd desktop

    split -b 25m weiss.mov



    -b flag tells program size of file to output, with m=megabytes, k=kilobytes, b=bytes and by default it will number the output files as xaa, xab, xac, etc. Whomever you send them to just needs to use cat command for rejoining the file segments.

    If your buddy doesn't know how to use cat it's

    cat weiss.movaa weiss.movab weiss.movac weiss.movad weiss.movae weiss.movaf


    Should work perfectly, super easy, free, and you don't have to download shit.

    Questions holler. There are some programs that will do this for you but honestly you are a grown ass man, it's fucking time you learned simple unix commands. They will serve you wellmy friend.

    "Teach a man to fish and he will forever hate you for teaching him a useless skill. Teach a man unix commands and he will bless you for a lifetime."
