The MainConcept codec should be bang on, you shouldn’t need to apply any colour correction to it. I can understand needing to adjust the Ligos codec, the underlying code for it is over 17 years old.

I always export as a non-self contained movie and expect just under realtime for my H.264 transcodes. So 90 minutes for 3x 30 min clips is about right I would have thought. Reading and writing to the same drive is going to slow things down.

If you are delivering over the web then the browser will look after the flash player, once your webpage has been authored as such of course.

Read up a bit on Flash – your H.264 files should be fine as they are..

Not without installing extra software.
Pretty well everybody has Flash installed, that’s why it’s the best choice for the biggest reach.

[Sarah Levitt] “Well, I am going with the .wmv because of what I’ve throughout the forums on Creative which say that for H.264 you need a quicktime player.”

Whoever told you that was wrong (or right at the time if it was from a long time ago but things have changed).

H.264 can be played in a Flash Player, a Sliverlight player, VLC, Quicktime and a whole host of other players.

It’s odd that you are going with WMV over H.264 (in Flash or indeed Silverlight) which is the way everybody seems to be going these days…..but…..

I go with Flip4mac, if you can go the extra bit for the Studio Pro HD version you get two pass encoding which will help the quality somewhat.

[Ben Watson] “Anytime I do a send to compressor from final cut, it takes an extremely long time to compress to h.264 or most other QT formats.”

What Mac do you have?

What settings are you using (exactly)?

How exactly are you exporting out of FCP to compressor?
