    Hi guyz and masters
    I am really novice at video editing. In fact the only thing I want is to watermark the video. I tried Sony vegas pro 13. The problem is the size of the output result is huge.

    My input video:
    Resolution: 1920*1080
    Format: MP4
    duration: 4:19 minutes

    So I want to put my logo (PNG) on it. This is the output result:
    Sony AVC 1920*1080 template 30 MP4, size: 350 MB

    What is the solution to have an output in same size of input?

    Thank you so much

    You didn’t mention how large the original file is or what bitrate it uses. If you want to keep it that size you’ll have to alter the render bitrate to the same amount. I would think a 4:19 minute 1080p mp4 file at a decent bitrate would be exactly what you got, around 350mb. If you want to go smaller you’ll sacrifice quality but I’m guessing the source file you’re working with is already lower quality if it’s significantly smaller.

    Either way, the solution is if you want a smaller file, lower the bitrate of the render.
