Wow. Wasn’t aware that Apple’s developers KB had those detailed specs. Much more useful that the consumer Tech Specs page for their devices.
So true on the Android fragmentation. Thanks for that link as well.
The good news is that the client was receptive to using WebM and there weren’t any ridiculous internal ad agency politics involved in their reasoning for OGV. MP4 and WebM it is!

I wish I knew someone with an Android phone to test. Ironically, the one person here at Steelehouse who owned an Android just switched to iPhone this week.
I believe iPhone 4 and earlier require Baseline profile for H.264. It seems the 4S offers High profile support.
iPhone 4S Video formats supported (via Apple.com):
H.264 video up to 1080p
30 frames per second
High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formatsMPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps
640 by 480 pixels
30 frames per second
Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formatMotion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format

Nice. I hadn’t thought about using a Flash-compatible H.264 encode. Very useful, particularly because the client wants to be mobile-friendly.

Awesome. Thanks Craig.
We’re already delivering an H.264 encode in an MP4 container, and I think with that Wikipedia article info we’ll be able to convince them to make the other format WebM.

I was wondering if that was the case, but I do see Squeeze added the x264 encoder in version 8, which was surprising.
Yes, Squeeze does support WebM. I may try to suggest a VP8 encode in a WebM container to the client. They are currently requesting an OGV, but I may see if we can convince them that’s not what they need.
Would you say WebM format is winning over OGV? Our client is trying to ensure HTML5 compatibility for a national email newsletter, but last time I checked, the HTML5 vid spec isn’t even finalized.

I’m using 2.2.0. I only had about 20 tapes, so I used the tape import tool. Do you know if there is a new version coming out? I seem to have frequent problems with the search function.

Thanks man. Not sure why I wanted to assume it was Psf.
I’ll run it all through Cinema Tools.

Hi Chris. I can’t recall since it was 2 and a half years ago 🙂 That is very likely though.
Glad you found a fix.

Are you sure you’re just not seeing the CC data track?
