Inquisit Web - Maximum Script Size

elisegrimm — Thu, 16 Apr 2020 11:34:15 GMT

Before purchasing Inquisit Web, I have an enquiry regarding the maximum script size. It appears that the maximum script size is 90MB?

Is this applicable for one script or one experiment as a whole? For instance, if my experiment was to have 3 tasks, does each have to be limited to 90MB or does the entirety of the experiment have to be under 90MB?
If each task script is limited to 90MB, does this include the stimuli photos ?
Given the current times, I am obliged to transfer my Inquisit Lab experiment online. One task has over 120 pictures. If we combine both the script and the photos, the total size amounts to 140mb. Would this still be able to run on Inquisit Web?

Thank you in advance,

Best

The storage limit is 90MB per study -- regardless of how many scripts and other files (images, etc.) the study is composed of. Typically this will be sufficient, and typically you can get below the limit by reducing your images' sizes, i.e. there's usually no need to have images in 8 megapixel resolution when they're only needed to be displayed on a relatively small area of the screen, etc. Note that reducing size as much as possible benefits you and your participants: The study will download and start up much faster.

In cases where the 90MB limit is absolutely insufficient, please email support<at>millisecond.com with a link to the experiment and information about how much storage you need to upload all files. We can then increase the limit for that particular study.

Thank you!. I need it full size but I realized that converting the photos from BMP to JPG tremendously helps.
