Yes, you are completely right, Mainconcept AVC. I was told that that would give the best looking quality videos, but I did not use two-pass mode, though I’m wondering, is two-pass mode a good idea? If Sony AVC is faster, would that mean the quality is lower, or would it remain the same?
I was assuming because the bitrate I have is set to what my camera records (28,000,000 bps), that could also be a factor, but I don’t want to lower that, so if the Sony AVC one is faster without lowering quality, that would be great. Do you know if it’s possible it would slightly faster to upload to youtube with that format too, or are mainconcept and sony the same?
