  H.264 Export Settings Questions: Still Image and HQ Audio

  Posted by Marc Walker on April 3, 2016 at 6:33 pm

  I want to render a video as H.264 for YT.

  – The video is of a still image with music.
  – I want the audio to be of highest possible quality, and the video to be a decent 720p image.
  – The audio format is 44.1kHz, 16 bit PCM.
  – The original still image resolution is greater than 1280 x 720.

  The questions I have are:
  • As the audio will be compressed, will I gain any quality by re-sampling the 44.1kHz PCM signal to 48kHz AAC)?

  • What AAC version is best for quality?

  • Given the video is a still image, does the frame rate even matter? Should I choose 10fps(the lowest)?

  • Should the target bit rate be lower for a still image?

  • What are the best ‘Key Frame Distance’ settings for a still image?

  Thanks
