How do you send videos through e-mail?

• i have videos i put on my computer from a camera so how could i send the video through e-mail?

• Answer:

  There are two basic types of video email. The two types are the attachment method and the streaming video method. The attachment method sends the video as a file attached to a regular text email. The streaming video method of video email only sends a tiny bit of information to the recipient which instructs their computer how to view the video email. Procedure to send a video email as an attachment: The first step to send a video email as an attachment is to start your video capture program and record videos with your webcam. Then you save the file on your hard drive. Be sure to give it a meaningful name and make note of where you saved the file in the next step. Next, start your email program and create a new text message. Then click on the button to "attach file", and when prompted, find the file you saved, click on it and follow the instructions to attach the file. Then your ISP (internet service provider) will send the email with the attachment to the addressee. Any decent quality video of a minute will be approximately 6 million bytes. Unless the recipient has that much empty space in his inbox, the video email will be rejected. You will be notified that it was refused, and then you can try to send it again. Once the addressee recieves your email, they will see that it has an attachment. They can then click on the attachment and wait for it to download to their hard drive. Now that they have received the entire file they can view the video, using any popular viewing program, such as Windows Media Player. After you hear back from your addressee that they have successfully seen the video that you sent, you need to go back and delete this video file from your hard disk. If you do not do this, you will soon find that your hard drive is overfilled with old, out-of-date, un-needed video files. Be sure to remind the addressee to periodically peruse their hard drive and erase all of the video files that the do not wish to keep saving. To send video as an attachment: you must know what internet access speed the recipient has you must know the limit on the size of the recipient's mailbox you need to know whether the recipient prefers to use flash, quicktime or media player you must regularly delete old email videos from your hard disk after sending, you must ask the recipient if they received your video if the video will be more than 40 seconds long, you must find a server to host your video the recipient can copy and save your video and then send it on as if it was his work Procedure to send a streaming video email: To send a streaming video email is much quicker and simpler. Simply go to your webpage, click on 'send new video message'. Record your video, enter the name of the addressee and click send. Then the servers store your video and send the text portion of your email to the recipient. The text portion of your email is sent to your recipient, so there is no possibility that the video will clog up his/her email inbox. When the addressee opens your email he will see a graphic filmstrip. If they desire to watch your video at this time, they click on the filmstrip and watch your video email. Another magic thing happens at this time. The servers will determine the connection speed of the internet connection that your addressee is using and send the best video for that speed. The video is not loaded onto their hard disk, so there is no need to keep deleting old video files. Comparing attachments versus streaming video Streaming video does not fill up the senders hard drive Streaming video does not fill up the addressee's hard drive Streaming video sends the highest quality video suitable for your addressee's internet connection. The best video for your recipients type of connection will be automatically used. Streaming video emails are much easier to create and send Streaming video takes less time to send Streaming video takes less time to view Attachment video emails are suitable for people that only send one or two emails per year.
