Video bitrate to file size: 10, 30 and 60 minutes
Estimate decimal MB for common combined audio and video bitrates. At 8 Mbps, ten minutes needs about 600 MB before container overhead.
Video bitrate to file size: 10, 30 and 60 minutes
| Mbps | 10 min (MB) | 30 min (MB) | 60 min (MB) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.5 | 37.5 | 112.5 | 225 |
| 1 | 75 | 225 | 450 |
| 2 | 150 | 450 | 900 |
| 4 | 300 | 900 | 1800 |
| 6 | 450 | 1350 | 2700 |
| 8 | 600 | 1800 | 3600 |
| 12 | 900 | 2700 | 5400 |
| 20 | 1500 | 4500 | 9000 |
| 40 | 3000 | 9000 | 18000 |
| 80 | 6000 | 18000 | 36000 |
Formula & method
MB = Mbps × min × 60 / 8What can change the answer
The bitrate is the combined average for all tracks. Values are arithmetic examples, not codec quality recommendations. Variable bitrate changes the result.
