Craig, sorry, you’re absolutely right, thank you for the clarification:
Compressor cannot pack h.264 in the mp4 container. I simply did not imagine it could not – as this is the most important format for the HTML5 video standard (Internet Explorer does not play the mov-Container).

Apparently it is a fact that Compressor is not good for encoding H.264 within the mp4 container.
I testet various settings, but the quality is not satisfying. Compared to Adobe Media Encoder, the Compressor mp4’s are larger in file size at the same target bitrate – at a definitely lower visible quality.
My verdict: forget Compressor for MP4, use Adobe Media Encoder.
