  Detecting the current compression of a file?

  Posted by Mark_c on August 30, 2005 at 4:35 pm

  I am having trouble finding out if files I am using are already compressed. If I bring a .mov into After Effects, is there a way to finding out the size on disk and the current compression if there is any?

  I usually go to File->File Information in Virutal Dub, but Virtual Dub does not support .mov files.

  Thanks in advance.

  Open it in QT player, then use ctrl/cmd-J to Get Properties. Look for Video Track and Format.

  Is there anything you don’t know? 🙂

  All I really need to know I learned from the COW. 😉
