How much HD video can I get on a 1TB hard drive? How many minutes/hours? in smoke
i have already 4 tb and i need capture full Hd .. but i dont know How many hours HD in 1 tb
also is there any HD compression in smoke ?smoke/flame media is uncompressed and takes up roughly the same space as an equivalent dpx file.
I forget how much a single HD dpx frame is, but I think it’s around 9-10 meg at 10bit color depth. Multiply that by your frames per second and go from there.
I don’t know why, but I’m always amazed when the math works out. We had to bring in some massive amount of media and my engineer figured out exactly the space needed. It was like magic to me. Haha.
1920 x 1080 (HD) x 3 (RGB) x 10 (bit) = 62 208 000 bits = 7.41577148 megabyte
final filesize plus some metadata per frame = 7.9 MBnow it just depends on your recorded framerate how many minutes will fit on the drive
