HD content on hard drive.
I do not yet offer Blu ray to clients. However one of them wants a HD version of their wedding on a hard drive to play on WD media player.
does anyone have any idea how large a file 2 hours or so would be in HD in wmv format? |

Two hours at 4853MBPS will fit onto a blank DVD, two hours at 9030MBPS will fit onto a dual-layer DVD. Use this bitrate calculator: Bitrate Calculator I would encode at 8MBPS WMV 9.0 and burn that to a double-layer DVD as a file, then hand it to the client. -- Brian.

Sounds like their only HD device is the WD player. And the WD HD player only takes a USB input... If the files are as small as Brian says, maybe a 8 or 16GB flash drive will work...that would be cheaper than an external HD.... Bob

I encode to 10mb H264 and put the files onto a 16gb usb stick. The video plays back fine through my WD TV Media player. It looks amazing on a 42" HD Plasma

..why WMV ? ... You can render to BluRay spec mpeg2 file... very high quality ... I've made some clips for WD media player and looks amazing on a HDTV (just like playing a bluray)... make some tests, compare and show to your client..
good luck
