  Compressing Files Using Apple Compressor

  Posted by Bruce Oothout on July 28, 2011 at 5:58 pm

  I am trying to get a file under 50 mb and can’t seem to get Compressor to work correctly. It changes my aspect ratio to 4:3 every time. I can output using Quicktime with no issues, but I can’t get the file size below 80 mb. Does anyone know why this is happening?

  What are you trying to deliver? A web stream or?

  Also post what the sequence settings are. Is it an anamorphic sequence or?

  I’m trying to deliver a short that will be uploaded to a video site. It was shot with an iphone. The sequence settings are: Frame Size: 1920×1080; Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square; Compressor: H.264.
