playing videos off a USB drive
Hi,
I have a client that whats to distribute 11 videos on a USB drive. The total running time is 12 hours 33 minutes.
I was thinking of having a player on the USB flash drive and then the files as MP4.
Is that the format you would use?
What compression setting?
I am thinking of using the VLC Media Player Portable as the player.Once I get the compression settings then I can figure out the size of the USB drive they will need.
Any recommendations?
Thanks! James

Yes, that’s what I would use.

Use Sony AVC with one of the Internet … templates that match your video resolution and frame rate. You can decrease the bit-rate to make the files smaller if they are too big.

Make sure the USB drives are fast enough to play videos. Test it before he buys a boat load of blanks. (Or use a third-party like disc Makers to make the USB drives for you.)
