Determining the memory requirement of a recording

The amount of memory recorded video sequences will take up depends on the following factors:

picture quality

number of images per second

duration

The memory requirement is calculated by this formula:

Memory requirement = picture size x duration of recording x images per second

Example calculation of CIF resolution (PAL):
