Default Video Dimensions

Jeeze, I think I should make some sort of a guide on this or something... Well, anyway, I'm working on a simfile series, complete with lyrics, videos...the works. However, I would like to know the recommended video dimensions that I should use when editing the video. I'm assuming it should be about the same size as the wallpaper (640 x 480 or something around that range) but I don't want to guess and have a blurry video running in the background, so I figured I'd ask first.

anything larger than 640x480 seems to have problems sometimes, so you will probably want to stick with that

320x240 is what ddr runs at, but it will look bad on most computers

ITG also ran the video files at 320x240, from what I can tell.

Most custom videos that I've downloaded also seem to be using 320x240 for their dimensions.

Most people shouldn't have trouble with a video at 640x480, though.

640 x 480 will look good but will sacrifice framerate on slower PCs

320 x 240 might be smaller but it's faster. It should look good with proper compression (DivX @ 780kbps, etc).

I have some stepfiles with Videos that run at 640x480, and half of them seem to make the arrows skip frames, but it doesn't do it in 4.0, just 3.9.

I'd say just use 320x240, to save file space as well
