Hello, I have a ROXIO USB Video Capture device that worked a month ago but now does not. This is a PC issue because the device does work on my Windows 8.1 laptop. The drivers appear to be properly installed, at least they say they are working properly but when I run any one of 3 software packages they say there is no video signal. Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, Windows 8.1 64-bit, Intel i5 series or higher processor, 4 GB RAM, 20 GB Hard Drive, available PCIe slot. Temperature Operating: 10° to 55° C (50° to 131° F).

How to Calculate Video File Size

In this part, we will tell you the details, or the logic, about how to calculate video file size.

Firstly, we need to know, or you may have known, that each video file consists of hundreds and thousands of images. And one image is called a frame in a video file, technically. So to answer the question, it seems that we need first to figure out how to calculate one frame (image).

How to Calculate One Frame

Each frame or image consists of many pixels. And how many pixels exactly it has depends on its horizontal pixels and vertical pixels, or the resolution. For example, one 4K image with 4096 x 2160 resolution, then its total pixels are 8847360. I guess this is not hard to understand, right.

But the real question is how much storage one pixel takes up. If we know it, then the size of one frame equals that the size of one pixel times the resolution.

To figure out how much storage one pixel takes up, here is another knowledge point that we need to learn about. It is Bit Depth, or called Color Depth.

What is Bit Depth

Bit Depth means the color information stored in one pixel. Only when one pixel stores some colors, then the image can show us a cat, a dog, a flower, or something else. The bigger the number of the bit depth, like 1-bit, 2-bit, 4-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit, etc. the more color information one pixel can store, more precisely the whole image would be described, and consequently more storage the image would take up.

The color of each pixel is the combination of the three primary colors: red, green, and blue. Each primary color is often called a color channel and can have any range of intensity values specified by its bit depth. The bit depth for each primary color is termed the bits per channel. The bits per pixel (bpp) refers to the sum of the bits in all three color channels and represents the total colors available at each pixel.Here are some specific examples, which maybe help you understand those words above easily.

1-bit per channel has only two color options: often black and white, so it can only use one 0 and 1, or 1 bit.

2-bit per channel will has 22=4 colors, and it can use two 0's and 1's, or 2 bits.

4-bit per channel has 24=16 colors, and it can use four 0's and 1's, or 4 bits.

8-bit per channel has 28=256 colors, and it can use eight 0's and 1's, or 8 bits. This one is widely applied.

16-bit per channel has 216=65536 colors, and it can use sixteen 0's and 1's, or 16 bits.

24-bit per channel has 224=16777216 colors, or called true color, and it can use sixteen 0's and 1's, or 16 bits.

Etc.

Different Bit Depth Visualization

Now we have pretty much get the Bit Depth clear. And in the following content related to Bit Depth, we will take the 8-bit per channel as an example to help us.

And at this time, we can also calculate how much storage one frame, or one image will take up. The formula, which we have mentioned above, is,

8-bit per channel has 28=256 colors, and it can use eight 0's and 1's, or 8 bits. This one is widely applied.

16-bit per channel has 216=65536 colors, and it can use sixteen 0's and 1's, or 16 bits.

24-bit per channel has 224=16777216 colors, or called true color, and it can use sixteen 0's and 1's, or 16 bits.

Etc.

Different Bit Depth Visualization

Now we have pretty much get the Bit Depth clear. And in the following content related to Bit Depth, we will take the 8-bit per channel as an example to help us.

And at this time, we can also calculate how much storage one frame, or one image will take up. The formula, which we have mentioned above, is,

Like we have said, we take the 4K resolution (4096 x 2160) and 8-bit per channel as examples. So for a 4K video file, the size of its one frame would be 4096 x 2160 x 8 = 70778880 bits.

Well, bits are less likely to see out there. It would be much better to convert into megabytes (MB).

1 megabytes = 1024 kilobytes;

1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes;

1 byte = 8 bits;

So 70778880 bits = 70778880/(8 x 1024 x 1024) MB = 8.4375 MB. That is to say, for 4K video file with 8-bit Bit Depth, the size of one frame is 8.4375 MB.

Now we can answer the question of how to calculate video file size, and here is the video file size formula,

Please let me explain to you the meaning of each item in this formula. Time refers to how long your video is; Frame per Second, or called FPS, means how many frames will be played per one second for this video; Pixel per Frame, or the Resolution, and Bit Depth have been talked about above.

Imagine there is a 4K video with 30 minutes, 60FPS, 4096 x 2160 pixels, and 8-bit Bit Depth, then its size would be (in MB),

30 x 60 x 60 x 4096 x 2160 x 8 ÷ 8 ÷ 1024 ÷ 1024 = 911250 MB;

OK, let's convert it to gigabyte (G), and it would be,

911250 ÷ 1024 = 889.89GB.

This is kind of scary. Probably many of you even would not believe this number, right? But it is true.

If we want to transfer such a 4K video to one of our friends, and the uploading internet speed is 10M, it would take us about 25 hours.

Seriously, this is very inconvenient for information sharing. So the engineers came up with the solution - encoding the video files. The main purpose of video encoding is reducing its size. There are many ways to encode a video file. If you are interested in this, you can refer to this guide from Wikipedia. Each encoding method comes with its unique compression algorithm and ratio. Besides, we also need to know that even if different devices, for example iPhone X and Android Pixel, use the same encoding way to compress a same video file, the final size probably would be not same.

So considering its complexity, we will not continue with how to calculate encoded video file. But this online tool on this page can work it out easily.

I have ripped some movies from an old DVD, and I want to digitally upscale the videos to 1080p, any idea to do it?

After upgrading your home entertainment system or computer screen, you may expect to upscale your videos to higher resolution. It is a process that converts low resolution videos into higher definition. Some software uses the interpolation algorithm to fill the blank pixels based on what those surrounding it display. This article will show you how to upscale video with Premiere, Handbrake and more.

Part 1: The Easiest Way to Upscale Video

Vidmore Video Converter is an easy way to upscale video on your desktop. For average people, the intuitive interface allows you to master it quickly. For advanced users, there are extensive custom options to create the desired result.

1. Increase video resolution up to 4K and Ultra HD simply.
2. Support almost all video formats including MP4, AVI, MKV, etc.
3. Enhance video quality automatically or manually.
4. Offer a wide range of custom options and video editing tools.
5. Preview the upscaled video with the built-in media player in real time.

All in all, it is the easiest option to upscale your videos in batch since it supports multi-thread.

How to Upscale Videos Simply

Step 1: Install the best video upscale software

After you download and install Video Converter to your computer, launch it and click Add File -> Add File(s) to import the video files you want to upscale. The software is available to Windows 10/8/7 and Mac OS X.

Step 2: Increase video resolution

There are two ways to upscale your videos. Click the Edit menu on the top of the window to open the video editor window, and go to the Enhance tab. Check the box next to Upscale resolution to increase video resolution automatically.

If you prefer to upscale video to 4K manually, click the Settings button at the bottom of the interface, and increase the Resolution option.

Step 3: Export upscaled videos

Head to the bottom area in the main interface, choose a proper format or the target device from the Profile drop-down list, and click the Browse button to set the destination folder. Once your hit the Convert button, the video resolution will be increased immediately.

Note: Since the best video upscaling software relies on advanced algorithm to increase video resolution, it does not require extra software or complicated procedures.

Part 2: Upscale Video with Adobe Premiere Pro

It is well-known that Premiere Pro is a professional video editor. Some movie studios even use it to produce commercial videos. It includes a simple algorithm to guess the pixels and upscale video. If you already have the video upscaling software on your computer, follow the steps below to do it.

Step 1: Create a new project in the video upscaling software or open an existing project. Head to File -> New -> Sequence to pop up sequence presets. Then set the desired resolution, such as 4K or 1080p. Make sure to select the same frame rate and aspect ratio with the original video.

Step 2: Click Edit -> Preferences -> Media on the menu bar. Choose Set to frame size in Default Media Scaling in the pop-up window.

Step 3: Next, import the video you intend to upscale and put it into the timeline. Then you will see the video already fill the entire frame, no matter you upscale 720p to 1080p video or higher level.

Step 4: Zoom in the upscaled video to see whether there are artifacts, like noises. If you want to sharpen the video, apply unsharp mask to compensate for the blurred frames. Then export the video to your computer.

Note: Premiere Pro does not have the resolution resizing effect. Alternatively, you can upscale a video in Premiere Pro with After Effects. Bear in mind that both Premiere Pro and After Effects have high hardware demanding.

Part 3: Increase Video Resolution by Handbrake

Premiere Pro is expensive for people who have limited budget. Some freeware can provide the similar capacity of upscaling video resolution, such as Handbrake. As a professional video encoder, it allows you to adjust the video resolution or convert videos to another format. However, there are two many custom options in the video upscaling software. That is why we share a step-by-step guide below.

Step 1: Run Handbrake and go to the Open Source button to import the video file you want to upscale. If you do not have the video upscaling software, download it from the official website for free.

Step 2: Once the video is added, the Presets values will be available. They are a basic set of the output video properties. You can select a presets on the right side based on the desired output format and quality.

Step 3: Next, go to the Video tab to display all custom options. Then move the slider of the Quality to the right side to increase the video resolution. The value of RF for 720p is 19-23, 1080p is 20-24, and 4K is 22-28.

Step 4: After video upscaling, you can use the Preview feature in Handbrake to view the effect. Click the Preview menu on top ribbon, and hit Play on the pop-up window.

Step 5: If you are satisfied with the result, click the Start button to export the upscaled video.
