Well I do prefer the files to be as their original video file mainly because people can download them and play them straight away without having to worry about software such as winzip or winrar and these programs don't compress the file at all.
For uploading the file onto the server...
This is a pretty big subject for people who are new to using ftp. But to make things a lot easier I have decided to create a simplified way of uploading so you don't have to worry about ftp stuff.
I have set up a script which allows you to easily upload any file onto the server as long as it's under 999MB. Now I haven't tested it since I am on slow internet connection at the moment so I'm not sure how well it will handle with larger files.
So here is how it works go to the upload form by clicking
here.
You'll then be presented with the following:
Forum Username* [enter in your forum username]
File #1* [use this to find your file and select it to be uploaded]
Description [add a description, make it something I'll understand when I move it to the Download Database]
then press "Upload Files".
Depending on how large the file is you may want to do something else to let the time pass by and at the moment there is no progress bar but I am working on adding such a feature in the future so you know where you upload is at.
So for now you'll have to use that upload form which can be found at the following url:

Then I'll move it to the download database!
