Hi Devrim,

This is what I do. I want to know if I have “import settings” right and also “view” and If Im missing something? I just want it to be perfect for music production? is there something I can do to improve sound quality and picture quality? I screen recorded what I do. Im not trying to do animations I just want to leave it with just one image and song but what else can I do to improve image and sound quality? Do I have all settings correct? Is everything is video good Proxies, Optimized media? is “better quality” actually better than “better Performance”? Please help me out here

patrick? feedback please?

heres the second link by ffmpeg. i just feel i can do so much more with final cut pro https://youtu.be/_q0ztc-yaoc?si=XCRgr-hODgFb1M8M

[Eddie Valentin]

I apoligize here’s the link from second link ffmpeg. https://youtu.be/DT6uKoRxUxM

what do you think Final Cut Pro first link or FFMPEG second link which sounds best? The Thing is do Still image videos as you can see (Music + Image) and I use Final Cut Pro pro res 422 it sounds good but it takes about 25 minutes to 30 minutes to upload on YouTube I just want to stick to whatever you think sounds?

One more question I need you guys to give me your honest opinion on 2 vids. Which one sounds best 1st or 2nd video? They are both from final cut pro same export settings the only difference is that 2nd vid .jpg is uncompressed from the Ben Dodson website

1st video: https://youtu.be/f3ue4vtmCuQ?si=gScJvIoVLQAAxoxH

2nd video: https://youtu.be/WPVM5HvjATo?si=v6RvMMBA2vo1cYq-
