Formula and methodology
Formula: Frame bytes = width × height × color depth ÷ 8; uncompressed video bytes = frame bytes × frame rate × duration.
Resolution determines how many pixels are stored in every frame, while color depth determines how many bits describe each pixel. Multiplying the raw frame size by the number of frames gives an upper-bound style storage estimate before compression and other stream components.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Horizontal pixels — px; minimum 1; maximum 100000
- Vertical pixels — px; minimum 1; maximum 100000
- Color depth — bits/pixel; minimum 1; maximum 256
- Frame rate — frames/s; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 1000
- Video duration — s; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 100000000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Horizontal pixels | 1920 |
| Vertical pixels | 1080 |
| Color depth | 24 |
| Frame rate | 30 |
| Video duration | 60 |
One frame is 6,220,800 bytes; one minute is about 11,197.44 MB before compression and stream overhead.
Assumptions and limits
- Color depth is entered as total bits per pixel; if a specification gives bits per channel, convert it first or include the channel count in the total.
- Frame rate is constant and duration is measured in seconds.
- The calculation uses eight bits per byte and decimal MB for the displayed MB result.
- No compression, chroma subsampling, alpha-plane packing, padding, headers, audio, captions, thumbnails, or container metadata is modeled.
- Real camera and editing formats can store fewer or more bytes than this simple packed-pixel estimate.
- The result is for capacity planning and format education, not a codec profile or delivery file-size guarantee.
