How long will it take to transfer my MPEG files to the MPV-2000(r)?
In some systems, the MPEG files which are created need to be transferred across a local or wide area network connection. When considering MPEG file size, you may also need to take into account the time it will take to transfer each MPEG file over your local or wide area network. Most wide area networks (and even some local area networks) utilize one or more slow data paths. Although normal day-to-day operations are not severely impacted, when transferring large files, such as MPEG files, the constraints of a slow path are felt. Further, network traffic also impacts the performance of file transfers. Consult with your network manager in order to understand which sites will be impacted the most on your network and to find the best times for large file transfers. File transfer times can be approximated using the following formula: Transfer time (in seconds) = file size (in megabytes) / transfer rate (in megabytes per second) Example: A 9.375MB file via an ISDN connection (128 kilobits per
