Lets say for this issue i am using 2 jamroom websites
1- main site hosted on VPS
1- small site hosted on a server I set up here in my office using Ubuntu and a Lenovo Laptop w/4GB RAM
I make videos of my kids school sport activities and upload them to youtube then embed them in the above main site...this process for a single video is taking around 8 hours because the videos are a round 3 GB each
I want to upload these 3GB videos to the jamroom site I have hosted here on server in my office- then embed them on the main site
I notice I can upload a 3GB video using the jamroom interface in about 5 minutes

So my 2 questions are "what file type should i convert the video to that would save time in the conversion process? I am not sure this can be done because i am thinking jamroom converted it to several formats...but not sure so wanted to ask...
My other question is how to embed a video from my office server website into my main Jamroom website?
The videos are for my kids- they wont get more than 100 views over their lifetime and not more than 10-20 per week...so I think I maybe able to stream them from this homemade server ok....I am just trying to save all the hours involved in uploading them and converting them using Youtube..
Any help/suggestions appreciated
