    I was asked by a client to convert a mov to the following format:

    MPEG TYPE: H.264 MAIN
    STREAM TYPE: TRANSPORT ( VIDEO )
    VIDEO MODE: PAL
    CONSTANT BIT RATE: 1900 KBPS
    FRAME RATE: 25 FPS
    RESOLUTION: 720 X 576

    SAMPLE RATE: 48 KHZ
    BITRATE: 224 KBPS
    STREAM TYPE: TRANSPORT AUDIO
    AUDIO TYPE: MPEG LAYER 2
    MODE: STEREO

    Please can someone help me I am quite confused on some of the settings on when I go on to compressor it keeps giving me something different can someone help me/ guide me step by step on what I need to do.

    Your help is appreciated.

    Many Thanks

    What version of compressor? Version 3.5 may not be able to do this. Version 4 can.

    What do you mean by this?

    Hi

    Thanks for getting back to me.

    Well I use compressor 3.0.5

    I keep getting mpeg 2 but not the settings I need.

    So if I did this on 4 how would I do it.

    Please help.

    Much appreciated

    TYPE MOV
    MPEG TYPE: H.264 MAIN
    STREAM TYPE: TRANSPORT ( VIDEO )
    VIDEO MODE: PAL
    CONSTANT BIT RATE: 1900 KBPS
    FRAME RATE: 25 FPS
    RESOLUTION: 720 X 576

    SAMPLE RATE: 48 KHZ
    BITRATE: 224 KBPS
    STREAM TYPE: TRANSPORT AUDIO
    AUDIO TYPE: MPEG LAYER 2
    MODE: STEREO

    Ok, so you need to create a new QuickTime preset (type mov)
    On the encoder tab, there’s a settings button – pick the h.264 codec
    QuickTime is a transport stream
    Bit rate is 1900kbs
    Frame rate 25, res 720×576 (and make sure compressors geometry tab matches)

    …and I’m not sure you can Mpeg Layer 2 audio. Perhaps they mean AAC?

    Can they give you a previously encoded movie to their specification?
