    Compressor Compressing

    Posted by Brian Pitt on December 5, 2005 at 6:06 pm

    I need to compress a clip to under 10 megs. The clip is about 3 and a half minutes long.
    I can’t seem to figure out what codec and bitrate to use.
    If anybody has any ideas, I would appreciate hearing them. thanks.

    Quicktime 7: H.264 at 300 kbs
    Quicktime 6: Sorenson 3 at 300 kbs

    these are just quick roughs. if you come in around 6 or 8, bump up the kbs rate.

    also, leave keyframe at 24….or drop it 15 if you’re feeling dangerous ;).
