  export as flash, or other format?

  Posted by Brian Johnson on November 20, 2007 at 5:38 am

  Hey all,

  I have a question about appropriate format for web videos. On my website, all of my sample portfolio videos are in .wmv format. It has recently come to my attention that Mac users are having problems viewing the videos (makes sense). What is the best format for posting videos online so that both PC and Mac users can view them? I ask this in the AE forum because I read online that AE can export as a Flash video which is, I believe, the format used by sites like YouTube. If Flash is best, what settings yield the best quality with the lowest filesize? Any help is appreciated!!!

  You should post this in the Compression Techniques forum. And yes, Flash video is best for cross-platform compatibility.
