Adobe CS5.5 Exports Quicktime H.24 files much to Large
I have tried many settings when Compressing a Tv Spot to up load to various Tv Stations in Media encoder. We mostly use H.264 Quick time, 1280 x 720, 59.95 fps, quality 100, 48Hz Stereo 16 bit lower first, square pixel Now the end result is 512MB this is on a PC, Why so big? When I use other programs the end result is mush smaller?

Hi Philip,
I don’t think 512mb is large for a broadcast-quality 720p video clip. If you want a smaller file, just lower the data rate, but expect lower quality then as well.

Hi Philip,
Without knowing the length of the video, or the compression settings you used, it will be difficult for anyone to offer suggestions, please share.
Thanks

Most TV stations have bitrate included in their delivery spec, so Adobe Media Encoder has the ability to target the specific data rate. Quality settings of 100 or 80 or whatever within QT really don’t give you that technical access.
I’d encourage you to try the H264 output profiles as a start instead of the QuickTime settings…you may find you can hit the spec dead-on.

“Somewhere between CS3 and CS5 (I never bought CS4, went straight from 3 to 5) Quicktime H.264 encoding went wonky. Try direct H.264 (.mp4 files) encoding and if the files are still too big then you might have a problem.
