Well, I’m not going to use the output file created in After Effects in another program. It doesn’t really matter whether the file is a .MOV/.AVI/.MPG, as long as I can play it with VLC media player.
The most important thing, is that the output quality must be great. I can export to .MOV but (as you said before) my PC can’t handle it.
I’ve exported the After Effects created files to .MOV and opened them in Premiere Pro. I openend the existing .AVI files in Premiere Pro too. If it matters, it it easier to export from Premiere Pro? And if so, what output settings should I use?
