    I have a 1 minute 48 second video consisting of music and video footage. For the life of me I cannot compress it correctly. Every setting I try yields a 10+ meg movie. I know it should not be that large. Please help.

    Thank you in advance!

    10 meg is not a big file in the world of video.

    Work backwards so we can give you a solution and tell you approximately what to expect as an output file size.

    What do you want to produce and for what delivery method ?.
    (Eg a 720 x 576 PAL Quicktime or a small streaming video)

    I am looking for a 3-4 meg file at maximum for web delivery.

    What compression settings are you using at the moment?

    When I go to export to Quicktime, I use the QT 256 Streaming NTSC preset to begin with. Then I customize it by making the size 320×240, frame rate of 29.97 and the Sorensen Video 3 Codec.

    This results in a very bad quality video. How do I compress this 1 minute 40 second video and have a small yet great quality video?

    Another note…

    I am using Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 to compress. I do not have Quicktime Pro.
    The source format is DV (well TV–>VCR–>Camcorder–>Computer via Firewire)
    No I do not have the Pro version of Sorenson.
    You can see the content at http://www.MissyMoments.com click on the services tab, and it is the Family Feud video at the bottom.

    Thanks in advance,
