Video that looks as nice as that on the Apple site
O.K. I’m just going to ask. How do I make my web video look as nice as that on the Apple site.
I’m using the Production Premium CS3 on an intel Mac and trying all kinds of stuff. I’ll assume the video they have is Quicktime. I, however, am limited to Flash delivery. I’ve tried FFMPEGX, Encore, the CS3 Flash Video Encoder. I think my problem is going to be the interlaced video.Yes, I know, interlaced video is not for web. But that’s the only kind of camera I have. I understand DVFilm Maker is pretty sweet, but it’s going to take some convincing to get another couple hundred bucks from my boss.
Does any body have some tips or standard settings for .flv output that will look real nice. What apps do you recomend for deinterlacing/compression. Or even references to tutorials or books. I’m getting pretty good and making the videos but compression and delivery is my week point.
thanks for your help

What frame size are you shooting/editing, and what do you want to export?
Generally, if you deinterlace and then reduce the frame size, it is not quite as noticeable.
Please keep in mind that Apple pays a lot of money to compress those videos professionally. If you want great Flash, increase the data rate until it hurts!

How do you export to flash? is that a plugin for premiere cs3?

Premiere Pro will export to Flash using the Adobe Media Encoder that comes with the program.

not sure about the flash compatibility but i believe most of the apple site vids are using the h.264 quicktime codec.

The way I do it for one of my sites (https://www.thespotlot.com) is to export a high-rez movie from Premiere, then use Sorenson Squeeze to make the Flash FLV file.
Sorenson Squeeze will export a wide array of file formats.
