Best Compression/Size setting for posting movie on Blog

Newbie here - Thanks for the help BTW.
I created a little movie from still pics through IMovie08. I exported it a few different ways to my desktop in order to get it on my IWeb blog page, but many of my friends and family were not able to open the file.
I believe it's a QT file now. What should I be doing to make this work for everybody? Is there a certain file type that is best for this situation?
Again - Thank you for any direction you can give me.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What I've done is use the File->Export for Web->Desktop option in Quicktime. Then one way to get it online and have a page load without waiting for the movie to completely load is to place the movie in your iDisk's Movie folder and add a button/link to a poster frame image of the movie via an HTML Snippet that will open the movie in a new window, one that is sized to the movie's size. This demo page is an example of such a button and has the code used in the snippet.
if the Export to Web is till too large post in the Quicktime to see what you might find there. You can still use the button snippet to make the page load quicker.

  • What is the best setting for export movie in widescreen format?

    Please tell me what is the best setting for exporting movie in Widescreen format?

    Like in After effect we use "NTSC D1 Widescreen Square Pixel".,
    Carefully examine the codec and pixel dimensions of that output file. That's certainly easy for an experienced VFX person like yourself.
    Then carefully look over the presets in FCP to find the same attibutes. You can also use the online help system for FCP and search for "D1"
    However, your question remains unanswerable because we don't know how you're getting to the monitor. What are you playing back you AE sequences on that displays them on your LCD? You're assuming we know what you're doing and, I assure you, we do not.

    what is the best time to set for my iMac intel to get to sleep? the default is 10 minutes, i am changing it to 1 houirs but i put the sleep time for my monitod 10 minutes. is it decent?

    Not so sure of that "just plain logic." Allowing  sleep too often will cause wear on the drive -- excessive spin up and spin down. Temperature permitting, a drive will last longer if just left running.
    For other hardware, a lot will have to do with the internal temps. When it's quite hot here, I allow the computer to sleep more often. But otherwise, it's a bit of this and a bit of that. I wouldn't personally recommend running 24/7, although I know of several here who claim they do, with no apparent adverse effects over many years.

  • Best Compressor encoding setting for DVD

    I have an 80 min FCP project. It is a stage show where part of the frame is dark and the stage is light with gels and the Dancers. What is the Best encoding setting for a standard size DVD
    I tried 90 minute 2-past best DVD but there was severe blocking/chopping.
    Any tricks & tips?
    Thanks

    I don’t understand that. (Me not so smart.) If there is a standardized Unicode value associated with glyph X, then how is it that none of the Unicode character sets in Firefox abide? Add a font? As I understand it, a font is just a re-representation of known characters. It seems like I’m hearing that not only does there have to be a character set decode of the data I’m viewing, but also a font that takes that Unicode value and translates it to something visual. That doesn’t wash. Between databases data is converted to and fro, irrespective of OS/App fonts installed. Sybase <-> Oracle doesn’t need a font installed. Viewing from SQL I don’t need a font installed.
    But – thank you cor-el for effectively resolving my problem – even if I don’t understand the logic. Thank you for taking the time to reply!

  • Best QT export setting for istockphoto?

    Hi.
    I want to export my footage using PPro CS5 for uploading onto istockphoto.com.
    The required format is QuickTime (Photo-JPEG).
    This is the source summary:
    1440x1080 (1.3333), 29.97fps, Upper
    (was shot with Sony AX2000)
    Does anyone know the best export setting for this footage?
    I tried this...
    Format:QT
    Preset:Custom
    Codec:Photo-JPEG
    1440x1080
    29.97fps
    Upper First
    Aspect: HD Anamorphic 1080 (1.333)
    Then, the exported video looks vertically streched...
    What am I doing wrong?
    Please help.
    Thank you!

    You're probably doing nothing wrong.  Many players will not unsqueeze the footage automatically, you have to tell it to do that with a keypress or menu setting.

  • What is the best image size format for imovie iOS

    I want to create a few black images with white letters as title slides and use them with some of my videos I am creating using imovie with my new ipad3.
    What is the best image size?
    thanks!
    Jeremy

    It all depends on what you want to do with the images.
    If you don't want to do any moves on the images then make them the exact size of the video.
    The iPad 3 edits in full HD, 1920 x 1080.
    If you want to do small moves, then make is larger.
    But keep the 1920 x 1080 dimensions otherwise iMovie just chops the image to that ratio.
    good luck

  • What is the best heap memory setting for JBoss?

    I am running a Windows 2003 server and JBoss is running as service.  The current heap configurations is 1024, but I am having some problems with the service failing.  What is the optimal heap memory setting?  Thank you,

    There is no optimal memory setting for LiveCycle.
    It depends on the components you have chosen to deploy.  If Content Services ES2 is deployed, your heap size settings should be about 2 GB, otherwise 1.0 - 1.7 GB might suffice.

  • Best QT output setting for Keynote?

    Apoogies in advance if I'm posting this in the wrong Forum...
    It seems that, for me, the quality of QuickTime files drops somewhat when embedded and played in Keynote. As well as a change in contrast/brightness (gamma?). However, the file looks just fine when viewed in QT Player. I'm using high-quality codecs - typically either "Animation" (I do alot of recording of applications from a Mac desktop, also for when I need an alpha channel) or "h264" (when I don't need an alpha channel).
    I'm not resizing the movies when they're in Keynote, so is this normal, or am I doing something wrong?
    What QT output settings give the best results in Keynote? Will the file always look worse then if it's played in QuickTime Player?

    You're probably doing nothing wrong.  Many players will not unsqueeze the footage automatically, you have to tell it to do that with a keypress or menu setting.

  • Best way to set up a movie with many different sections

    Hi - i am making a flash demo and have a bunch of different sections / categories that the movie will need to navigate to. I created a similar demo previously and used different "scenes" to keep track and organize the different categories. Should i keep using scenes to navigate to or is there a better, more professional way to do my movie?
    Also, where could i find more information on properly organizing and setting up my flash files? ie: naming conventions, etc.
    thanks!
    - Pat

    There isn't really a definitive answer as to how one should set up a file, though a frequent recommendation is to avoid the use of scenes if you plan to incorporate navigation between different sections.  While the concept of arranging separate sections as scenes is good, in reality, scenes can be problematic when it comes to implementing navigation into them.
    Sometimes the set up choice is best decided based on how much content is involved and how that content is to be accessed (web versus pc presentation).   If there is potential for some heavy file size, it may be better to create different sections as separate swf files and load them dynamically.
    If you want to have the whole thing within one file, then you can use the one main timeline, dividing it into sections, using labels to navigate to them, or you could create it all in one frame and use visibility to control what anyone is seeing at any time.  The latter of those two is handy if you have sections that need to retain information/settings in the event returning to them is necessary... if you just make them invisible, then they retain whatever state they were in.
    And you can combine the various approaches if there is any utility in doing so.  It really boils down to doing what you reason to be suitable for the job, and sometimes it even boils down to what approach you are most comfortable following... design efficiency is not necessarily always a driving factor is getting results.
    As for conventions, you might try searching Google using the terms you think best identify what you are after.  You might be able to find some beginner level tutorials that will go into some detail regarding coding conventions and whatnot.

  • FCP: What is the best quality sequence setting for HD Video with JPEGs?

    Hello,
    If I am editing digital still images that are 3696x2464, in order to make them into a HD video in FCP what is the best sequence setting?
    There are so many HDV settings and I still don't understand the aspect ratio options...
    please advise!

    Hello,
    where do I choose the ProResLT in the setting window? and What should be the Frame Size and Pixel Aspect Ratio? I am trying different options and having a hard time finding a setting that doesn't distort or pixel the image. Please help!
    Additionally, would this setting maintain the quality even when the movie is exported and burnt onto a DVD?
    many thanks.

  • Canon SL1 DSLR: Setting for recording movies from a tripod

    I plan to use a tripod to sometimes record a group of us during vacation and would like to know if the SL1 provides any type of movie recording start delay (like 2 or 10 seconds) and movie record time limit (like 2 minutes). - just enough time for me to get into the movie.  Are such features available on the Canon SL1?
    If yes, what are the settings to set a movie recording start delay and movie recording time limit?
    If no, what are the alternatives?
    I know I can use the RC-6 remote control to turn recording on and off, but I was hoping I could do something with the built-in time delay as well.
    Checking and Thanks,
    Mike
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    There are wireless remotes that can be used for this -- but I don't think you can set a delay timer like you can for still shots (and of course you'd still have to stop the recording when you're done.)
    Since it's video, just start the clip rolling... and edit out the front later (since you probably want to edit your clips anyway.)
    As for recording time limit... yes there are two limits.  The camera cannot record a single video clip (continuously) for more than 29 minutes 59 seconds.  In other words... 30 minutes is a hard limit.  This is political and NOT technical.  Via trade agreement, if a camera can record video for longer than 30 minutes then it must be classified as a "video" camera and tariffed at a higher rate.  If it is limited to recordings which are less than 30 minutes then it can be treated as a still camera so the tariffs are lower.  It's a silly restriction -- but imposed by the governments who negotiate these trade agreements.
    The OTHER limit is the file-size and that is a technical limit although you're unlikely to run into it.  The memory card is formated as an MS-DOS FAT32 filesystem.  This is what allows the same memory card to be compatible for reading by a PC, or a Mac, or even a computer running Linux if you prefer... and they can all read the card without the need for any proprietary drivers (no licensing royalites come into play here).  BUT... the FAT32 filesystem maps out files in a way that limits the maximum size of a single file to 4GB. It is probably far more likely that you'll run into the 30 minute rule limit than the 4GB filesize limit.

    If you want to play your dvd on a big HD tv you need a dvd-player with upscaler otherwise it will look awful.
    Use DL or export your timeline directly to mpeg2-dvd.
