Does the pixel count give rough estimate of a movie?
For example if you have a DVD which is usually 720 X 576 which if you multiply together to get the pixel count which is 414720 which is roughly size of a DVD (4.7GB) disc in kilobytes if you multiply it by 10. This also seems to work for Blu-Ray (25GB) too which is 1920 X 1080 and get a pixel count of 2073600. I tried it with VCD but that doesn't seem to work as 352 X 288 will give 101376 which is 1.5 times more than what a VCD would hold 650MB or 700MB.
I know sometimes I just think about stuff and some of them really makes sense and some may be plain old stupid jokes or just not worth posting here lol. I wonder if anyone else had this idea or something.
