How many gigabytes in a video Like say a 2 hour movie or a 3 minute music video?

In: Consumer Electronics [Edit categories]

You can figure approximately 4.7 gigabytes for a 2 hour DVD and around 10 megabytes per second for a 3 minute video, on average.

There's really too many factors to consider, like full video encoding or some other type of compression like DivX to take into consideration, so truthfully, it's hard to be exact. If you have them stored on your computer, go to the file, highlight it and right click. Then go to the properties tab and it'll tell you how large it is.
