Uploading DVD

[Linton]

I have recently received a dvd of an interview with an RN submariner who served until 1945.It is over an hour long and is not easily breakable into chapters.It is in the region of 1.5gb in size.Where is the best place I can upload it for free?

Thank you for your answer.If it does not produce a satisfactory result can any of you suggest an alternative?

I've watched two hour movies on there, only place I know of on the web that will let you upload movies that large and long for free.

In the link I posted, they even have upload software and give detailed instructions for which video format/size/quality/etc. for best results.



Forgot, there is one more place:

Unfortunately the upload programme doesn't loke the format my dvd id in.Does anybody know how to change it into a more usable form?

It's really a shame that Stage6 isn't online anymore, would've been the ideal place for it.
