VideoSpace

Mac OS X | Free

VideoSpace is a free widget for Mac OS X which calculates the disk space required for a given duration, codec, frame rate and audio setting. It works in both directions so you can calculate time to space or space to time as indicated by the direction of the arrow between the two input areas.

Time to Space Calculation

Select the desired codec, frame rate and audio settings (see below) then click in the left input box and type a duration of up to 999h59m59s. It is not necessary to enter leading zeros or colon separators, although VideoSpace won't complain if you do.

• to enter 28m42s just type 2842 and press return or enter.
• to enter 1h05m20s just type 10520 and press return or enter.

The disk space required will be calculated and displayed in the right hand box. VideoSpace will automatically choose the most suitable units (Megabyte, Gigabyte or Terrabyte) according to the size of the file. You can also change the units manually and VideoSpace will display the updated result.

At any time you can change the settings for codec or frame rate and the result will be updated automatically.

Space to Time Calculation

Select the desired codec, frame rate, units and audio settings (see below) then click in the right input box and type a file size. When you press Return or Enter the time is calculated and displayed in the left hand box. The arrow will point left to indicate that VideoSpace is doing a space to time conversion.

Audio Settings

Enter VideoSpace preferences by clicking the "i" button on the lower right of the widget which allows editing of the audio settings:

• Audio Channels: None, 2, 4, 6 or 8
• Sample Rate: 32kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz
• Bit Depth: 16 bit or 24 bit

Click the Done button to return to the front side. The audio settings are always displayed at the bottom of the widget so you can check them at a glance.
