  Web Codec from Avid!

  Posted by Brent Mcreynolds on August 13, 2009 at 3:30 pm

  What is the best codec for web when exporting from Avid MC. I have been exporting Uncompressed 10 bit then encoding the video in Adobe Flash Encoder. The video still is not as crisp as I would like it, any suggestions.

  Thanks,

  Brent

  There’s this on the Avid Knowledge Base:

  Hi, the link you quote here appears to provide a pdf that is empty and has an extension of “.webloc” Did it work for you? If so, how did you extract it? Cheers, Stu

  Stu,

  Sorry to send you to a dud link. There used to be a pdf and a YouTube.bat file that basically showed you how to to create your own ‘Send To…’ profile that was perfect for YouTube. I think this page is broken on the Avid site.

  Here’s two pages I found that might be of help:

  Update:
  Avid have repaired their Knowledge page:
  https://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=244161&Hilite=youtube

  Should have everything you need.
