    Recommended Settings
    Because QuickTime works on PCs and Macs, and makes videos that play in iTunes Music Store and Apple TV, we recommend it for your original upload. Your mileage may vary. Talk to your friends about what they’re using. Email us if you’ve got better settings!
    QuickTime Settings for PC and Mac

    * Format = QuickTime
    If you’re on a PC, download the free QuickTime and then go “Pro” for about $30. On a Mac, use Final Cut Pro or the free iMovie, which uses QuickTime Pro to export.
    * Extension = .mov
    .mov exports allow for a high degree of control over the quality of your upload, and make your original upload compatible and in higher resolution for display using iTunes and/or Apple TV. Check the presets in the latest QuickTime Pro. They often have what you’re looking for already defined.
    * Size = 640 pixels wide. Height depends on your favored aspect ratio. 16:9 = 640×360. 4:3=640×480. We recommend 16:9 if you can.
    * CODEC = h.264 baby!
    * Data rate: 1500 to 2.000 (Mbps). The higher, the better.
    * Audio = AAC audio, 48kHz. Render settings = Best. Target bit rate = 128+. Mono or stereo depending on mic used to record.
    * Key frame interval = < 24 K.F., or auto. Lower is better. Key frames are frames per second that the CODEC uses as samples of the kind of video it is compressing. * Fast Start: On. If you don't select "Fast Start" QuickTime movies won't play until the entire file downloads. * Frame rate: Current. * Frame Controls: Off. * Multi-pass: On. * Frame reorder: On.
