This is correct. I’ve written the JavaScript to select sizes dynamically – it’s 599KB smaller than the 600KB claimed. The hard part is the transcode infrastructure, and that’s frequently unnecessary for the small videos: if you use multiple sizes and formats, you increase the amount of traffic you need to see cache hits. YouTube has built a ton of infrastructure but most sites won’t see enough return to be worth the ops cost. |
