What is in this file

80 frames (2.7 s) of a synthetic test pattern with a frame counter, looping every six seconds, in one VP9 video track. The index of key frames comes before the picture data, so a player can seek without reading the whole file. 2,224 bytes of an EBML Void element bring the file to the exact size.

Where 100 KB matters

A 102,400-byte file that sits exactly on the default request-body limit of Express. These are the default limits a file of this size is useful for testing:

All 100 KB sample files

Use this file for

  • Checking email size handling
  • Checking uploads of browser-recorded video
  • Verifying type detection between WebM and MKV

Testing notes for WebM

  • H.264 and AAC are not allowed in WebM. A file with those codecs and a .webm extension is really Matroska, and browsers may refuse it.
  • Recordings made in the browser usually lack a duration and an index, because both are only known when recording stops. Players show no length and cannot seek until the file is remuxed.
