Export Issues
I am running into an exporting problem. I am currently working on a project where I have used some video that I recorded from a DVD program. Most of the short videos are about five minutes long and approximately 225mb in size. I have performed some very simple edits on the video using Premiere CS3. Now I am ready to export them. I would like to export them as AVI’s which is what they are now. However, I can’t afford to lose any of the quality. Can someone please tell me what the best method would be to export these videos. Ideally, I would like to keep them at the same size or smaller, but if they have to be larger, I can deal with that. Thanks in advance for the help.

the best balance of quality and file size you could go for would likely be a DV AVI file
whats the end product going to be out of interest ?

The end product is a video tutorial of some Electronic Medical Record software. I own a distributorship and need these videos for my customers. The vendor of the software made a video tutorial, but the docs had to download it on their computer and they didn’t like it. So I decided to copy the tutorial program and make my own DVD out of it. That’s what the customers want in order to view the features and benefits of the product. If you have any other advice, I’d love to hear it. Thanks again.

well if you want to maintain a high quality file and its for dvd you could export an MPEG2 file rather than an avi

What authoring software are you using assuming this is finishing on DVD? Because it is probably just as easy exporting as a Microsoft DV Avi then using Adobe Encore (If you got this) to transcode to a mpeg2, as it determines the correct compression based on the filesize. I guess you could just export as a mpeg2 with Media Encoder but you’d be guessing the bitrate to fit on DVD.
