Quicktime Compressor
I’ve been playing and testing in FCP to Export using Quicktime.
When I do (to Quicktime Movie) I notice on the Size dropdown menu there are these two options.
1920 x 1080 HD
and
HD 1920 x 1080 16:9
Whats the difference?
And, if there is a difference… which should i use if my final target is QT movies that are downloaded and played from hard drive?
Thanks in advance,
Jimmy

Hi
1920 x 1080 HD is the same as HD 1920 x 1080 16:9. Only difference is the aspect ratio. 16:9 should be used if you have applied lightbox in your footage. I would say go with the first option to get the full frame of the shot where as if you use 16:9 your actual frame will be cropped.
It’s better to apply both profile. It’s just drag and drop in compressor. See which one you like.
Hope it helps
