Video File Size Calculator

Estimate file size from bitrate and video duration.

Formula and method

This calculator computes Estimated size, Estimated size directly in your browser without sending data to an external server.

Mathematical formula

  • Estimated size: bitrate × minutes × 60 ÷ 8 ÷ 1024
  • Estimated size: bitrate × minutes × 60 ÷ 8

Variables and parameters

  • Bitrate (bitrate): default value 12 Mbps.
  • Duration (minutes): default value 30 minutes.

Some formulas are undefined for certain input combinations (such as division by zero or logarithms of non-positive numbers). In those cases the live tool displays an alert instead of NaN.

Examples

  • Example: with Bitrate = 12 Mbps, Duration = 30 minutes, this calculator returns Estimated size = 2.64 GB, Estimated size = 2700 MB.
