I’m using a G4 dual 1.25 GHz PowerPC. 1MB L3 cache per processor.
I’m simply exporting out of FCP by File>Export>Using QuickTime Conversion. Format>MPEG-4. Use>Default Setting. I read that these were the optimal settings for web based video out of FCP. It doesn’t seem to be so though.

Do you know what I can change to produce a respectable looking video? I haven’t used Compressor 1.2.1 very much and I’m not sure whether I need to use it to have better quality. Eventually I will need a DVD and I may use DVD studio Pro but am still debating IDVD due to the learning curve and my time constraints. But that’s my next task.

What can I do about this QT video quality?

Thanks for your time!!!
