    Compression Settings

    Posted by Linda O’connell on October 2, 2009 at 2:12 pm

    This isn’t really a Vegas question, but a general question.

    Is there an article somewhere that explains the different compression settings and when they should be used?

    I have a software program that is giving me many different types of compression options:
    DV Video Encoder
    Indeo Video 5.1
    MJPEG

    The manufacturer of the software is recommending using MainConcept DV which I don’t own, and I am wondering if it is worth the extra $150 to buy it?

    This program is to transfer old 8mm & Super 8 movies so most of the time the quality isn’t great to start with.

    If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great.

    I would first just try the normal DV video encoder before purchasing the Mainconcept DV
