Compression settings for google video
Sep 17th, 2007, 10:36
I put videos on Google Video which compresses them into Flash format.
My programs typically run 30 to 60 minutes. I use to create an uncompressed version and run that through Sorenson Squeeze but once YouTube and other sites caught on, the goal became compressing your video the best way for it to look after it is again compressed in flash. All of the tutorials I find on the best way to do this are for less than ten minute videos. If I follow their suggestions (or even the ones suggested by Google Video) I end up with a huge file that takes forever to upload and often doesnâ??t show up after uploading. There is no tutorial I have found that says â??this is the best method to use ... apply these settings in _____ formatâ?? and none of the methods I have tried look all that great on-line (or as good as some of the other videos I have seen on these sites).
I would be eternally greatful if anyone would share the format and settings they have found to create good looking videos on sites like video.google.com. I am using FCP 5.
