Formula
decimal GB=bitrate × 3600 × hours × days /8000.
- Use the units shown beside each field.
- Results update automatically whenever you change an input.
- Displayed values use up to four decimal places, or scientific notation for very small or large numbers. Calculations use standard floating-point arithmetic; exact integer and fraction tools identify their own precision rules.
- Constant useful bitrate; overhead and adaptive bitrate changes are excluded. GB=10⁹ bytes.
Example Calculation
Example inputs
- Average stream bitrate: 5 Mb/s
- Streaming hours per day: 2 h
- Days: 30
5 Mb/s for two hours a day over 30 days transfers 135 decimal GB.
Frequently asked questions
How do I use this calculator?
Enter average stream bitrate, streaming hours per day, days. The result updates automatically. Use Reset to restore the example values.
What method does it use?
decimal GB=bitrate × 3600 × hours × days /8000.. Constant useful bitrate; overhead and adaptive bitrate changes are excluded. GB=10⁹ bytes.
Why might a rounded result differ?
The calculation keeps full numeric precision internally, then rounds the displayed result. Rounding intermediate steps by hand can produce a slightly different answer.
Are my inputs saved online?
No. This calculator processes your inputs in your browser. A recently used list stores only calculator names on this device, not your entered values.
