Streaming Data from Supplied Bitrate Calculator
Streaming Data from Supplied Bitrate Calculator — change the supplied values to calculate streaming data from supplied bitrate.
Decimal GB, constant average bitrate; excludes protocol overhead and provider compression variation. Each supplied input accepts zero or 0.000001 through its shown maximum; smaller positive inputs are rejected. Binary64 multi-operation estimates, not exact arithmetic or measurement/invoice accuracy. Show small nonzero estimates with enough significant figures; never relabel them exact zero.
Accepted inputs: Average supplied bitrate: 0 to 1,000 Mbit/s; Streaming duration: 0 to 1,000 hours.
Each supplied input accepts zero or a positive value of at least 0.000001 in its stated unit. Positive values below 0.000001 are unavailable.
How the calculation works
decimal GB=Mbit/s×hours×0.45
Convert megabits to bytes and hours to seconds, then divide by 10^9 bytes per decimal GB. Stable evaluation places the smaller supplied factor last: min(bitrate,hours) multiplied by 0.45 times max(bitrate,hours), avoiding attenuation of a representable tiny factor before a larger factor restores scale. Version3 preserves this expression and adds explicit model constraints: each field is zero or at least 0.000001 in its declared unit. The micro-unit floor is a broad practical input range, not recommended usage or a measurement standard. Zero duration/use and free supplied price remain supported. Positive input cases are many orders above binary64 underflow.
Worked example
With average supplied bitrate 8 Mbit/s, streaming duration 2 hours, streaming data from supplied bitrate is 7.2 GB.
