# Video delivery size budget

Keep the master. Fill this sheet for one delivery copy.

- Source/master filename:
- Destination and current requirement URL:
- Maximum size and units (MB or MiB):
- Final duration in seconds:
- Accepted container/video codec/audio codec:
- Required tracks/captions:
- Viewing device and important detail:

## Planning calculation

Decimal units: video Mbps ~= (target MB * 8 * usable fraction / seconds) - audio Mbps.
The fraction reserves room for overhead; it is not a guaranteed result.

- Usable fraction:
- Audio Mbps:
- Calculated video Mbps:
- Chosen dimensions and frame rate:
- Encoding mode and preset:
- Test segment containing difficult motion/detail:

Example only: 20 MB * 8 * 0.9 / 60 seconds - 0.128 Mbps = 2.272 Mbps video.

## Actual export acceptance

- Exported filename:
- Actual bytes and displayed size:
- Duration:
- Text and important detail readable:
- Motion acceptable:
- Audio and timing correct:
- Required tracks/captions present:
- Opened outside editor:
- Receiver/destination accepts file:
- Change for next attempt:

An unchecked field is not an approval. Do not delete the master because one delivery copy fits.
