Chris is right and to add to his post the other problem is that no two screens are calibrated the same, so even with the same video using the same player, it’ll likely look quite different on different PCs.

I don’t use Sorenson but usually you set an average and a peak, the peak is usually not more than twice the average.

If the difference in colour saturation is that drastic (and not the simple gamma shift most people refer to) then simply compensate by adding a saturation colour correct as a preprocessor step in compressor.

[Andrew Saliga] “My math is right though correct? 7mbs=7168kbps “
To most people 7 Megabits per second = 7000 Kilobits per second.
I you want to do VBR I’d aim for a peak of 14Mb/s rather than 18

[Andrew Saliga] “I’m trying to encode the video at 7-18mbps”
Wow that’s pretty high, are you encoding 1080p?

If you want quality results get a quality encoder like compressor or Episode, you can’t rely on Quicktime’s exporter to deliver high quality results.

From the Readme:
How to use:
* Put x264Encoder.component into /Library/QuickTime folder.
* Relaunch some application with movie export feature.
* Export to movie.
* (ex. QuickTime Player) At export dialog, Click option button, Click Video Settings, Choose x264Encoder from popup list.
* To use B-frame support, check frame reordering.
* Choose preferred preset on option dialog.
* If necessary, Specify H.264 Level/Profile limitation.Good luck using it!

[bruno silva] “so what codec would you suggest to run at 6 mbps? Right now its only running at 4.7 mbps according to the client. “
That’s kind of the wrong way of going about this.
The client has specified how many frames they want.
The client has specified what the datarate should be
The client should also be specifying what codec and format they need.
It’s best to ask them to make 100% sure, otherwise you could waste a lot of time faffing about.

[bruno silva] “So for the frames part, thats actually physical frames. so I may be able to add slug to the front and back of the spot. “
That’s one solution.
[bruno silva] “as far as bit rate. I set it to 6000 in the video settings after applying the h264 compression type so Im not sure where the error is “
It maybe that the H.264 codec couldn’t actually use up all of the 6Mb/s, you can’t force it to be 6Mb/s if it doesn’t need that much data per second.
[bruno silva] “Quicktime mov i was using the DV/NTSC codec but I couldn’t change the bit rate using that one, so I am using h264 which is fine.
“DV is fixed at 25, 50 or 100Mb/s. You can’t change that.

[bruno silva] “The spot is currently 960 frames but needs to be either 450, 900, 1350, 1800, 2250, 2700, 3600 frames.”
?? if it’s 860 frames long, then it’s 960 frame long! You can’t add and if you deleted 60 frames then you content would either start at the wrong place or finish too early.
You can change the number of frames per second but that’s best avoided.[bruno silva] “the video bit rate is 4.7 Mbps and it needs to be 6 Mbps”
Erm, change the video bitrate to 6Mb/s!?, if you don’t know how to do that then you really need to refer to the ‘getting started’ guide.
[bruno silva] “It needs to be quicktime mov”
What kind of Quicktime mov? In other words, what codec?
Sorry to be brutal, but if you are doing this kind of work for clients you should really know this very very basic stuff.
