Best Flash Export Settings?

Hi All,
Could anyone recommend the best settings for "Sharing" the final edit to Flash, to be used on the web?
My preset is HDV, 1080i. The m2t 1440 x 1080 high def file looks awesome! How can I best retain that in Flash?
Thanks, Stan

Stan,
So very much will depend on the embedded Flash Player on the Web site. Can the Web master give you the details of the design? Also, what is the anticipated audience's connection speed? Those will likely direct you.
Good luck,
Hunt

Best quicktime export settings - compression - from final cut pro

i have done this for a while. still don't know.
to translate an ntsc 24p project onto a dvd, which export settings (compressor)do you use in final cut pro? i use current settings, and once i am done with idvd ("best quality") it just doesn't look high quality. is this an idvd question?
powermac g5 2.7 ghz dual Mac OS X (10.4) 2.5 gb ram

I didn't know iDVD could handle 24fps project. Or is it a 29.97 (23.98 with a pulldown).
Best quality in iDVD just means that it works on it longer to compress it more to fit more on disk. Have you tried Best Speed version?

25 Sony 8mm old Home videos importing as ntsc best import/export settings

I have 25 Sony 8mm old Home videos some over 20 years old importing as ntsc with a brand new mac-book pro and FCE 4.0. What is the best import and export settings to save for the future. Quality is important and time and space is not that important but I don't want to get silly considering the quality I am importing.
Thanks for your time.

*((((You will need to convert the analog video to QuickTime using Apple DV-DVCPRO NTSC codec. The normal way to do this is with an analog-digital converter such as the Canopus ADVC-110 or ADVC-300 (not the ADVC-mini). However, if you have a miniDV camcorder that supports analog-digital passthrough then you could use the camcorder as the converter device.)))))*
I was lucky and found a sony camera that I hooked a four pin firewire to a 9 pin (800) to my mac.
*(((Keep in mind that DV video requires about 13GB per hour. If your 8mm tapes are all 120 mins (2 hours) long, you will need about 650GB to store all the captured video. Sounds like a 1TB drive to me. BTW - Firewire, not USB.)))*
I was thinking 2TB
*(((You need to capture the video in FCE. The proper easy setup is the DV NTSC DV Converter easy setup. Editing will then be done in a DV NTSC sequence.*
*How you export from FCE depends on what you want to do with the finished video. If you just want to burn DVDs, then export to QuickTime Movie. If you want to save the video at its 'full resolution' then also export as a QuickTime Movie. If you want to post to the web, or do certain other things with the finished video, you would export to QuickTime Conversion.))))*
I just want to store it on 2 hard drives one connected to a pogo plug so my family can see them and store the second at my brothers house as the back-up. What would be the best format for that?
Now you know my hardware so should I import the whole 2 hours or batches of like 1/2 hour segments.
Again thanks for your help this is saving me many trials and errors.

Best HD export settings for YouTube

I am looking for some info on what export settings to use for YouTube with HD video. I want to export everything in 1080 (not 720) so I can also upload to Vimeo. Can someone please explain (or link) to me how I should export.
This is my first time using HD video, I shoot in 24fps onto HDV tapes.
I am not sure what else I need to know (or do) to export in the best quality.
THank you in advance!

Any other input for this topic?
I have been searching around for the past week for a solid export setting.
I've tried the above settings but I have yet to see the final product because it takes FOREVER to export (the estimated time just keeps going up and up, never down).
I found a setting a few weeks ago and used it but I cannot find it again. It did not take too long to export and the final product looked amazing both in Quicktime and on YouTube/Vimeo.
Anyone that would like to share their settings for an upload to YouTube/Vimeo, please do, I am in need.
Thanks!

Best sequence export settings from FCP7 to use in X

Hi
I wanted to work with old sequences created in 7 but in X. I know, I know, I could continue in 7 but like working in X and maybe adding newe material. So what would be the best export settings for a sequence to import into X? Simply uncompressed, or one of the ProRes options? How bout audio?

Thanks, innocentius!
i agree it's a worthy tool, but just for kicks I want to bring in the sequence in some other way because it doesn't need editing, but I'd use bits here and there.
So I'm still wondering how to bring export it closest to it's original quality. I could choose 'none' in the compression settings or maybe one of the ProRes options. Any ideas?

Best image EXPORT settings for best quality

What should i have my export settings at when exporting to a jump drive to give to clients for web and printing use???
When i see my images uploaded on Facebook for example, the qulity looks poor which worries me that when printing the quality will be poor as well. Am i missing something in the setting for exporting? What is the proper way to export for the best quality image? HELP!
My settings now under Aperture>Presets>Image Export:

No, not for one size fits all.
I do appreciate this may be a frustrating answer, but non-the-less, that's how it is.
t_hall10 wrote:
Should I be gving 2 folders of pictures, one for web use and one for printing use? If I were to do that, what should the exporting setting be set for both folders?
Maybe, it's your choice.
Let's go through the settings.
The only real quality setting is for JPG compression. 12 is virtually no (lossless) compression but gives huge file sizes which may breach a websites limits.
A 16MP images on quality 12 will be about 22MB. 11 brings it down to 8MB and 10 down to 7MB. You'd be very hard pressed to see the difference between a 12 and a 10. But if you want to feel you are giving the best quality without the extreme file size, go for 11.
The the vast majority of web sites, like facebook, will either resize uploaded images and/or re-compress them. They may also crop them to a different aspect ratio to fit their browser software.
Many report the best size for upload to facebook, for small images is 960 pixels on the long side. For large images it's 2048. For different websites it may be different. It is discussed on many photography sites and blogs. You will find some promoting the 960 / 2048, and others with their own preferences. Here's a good one which also shows you many ways FB will mess with the images:
http://havecamerawilltravel.com/photographer/images-photos-facebook-sizes-dimens ions-types
The safest colour space is sRGB (Mac profile: sRGB IEC61966-2.1) as it will more often be right than wrong. You should preview your images on screen with this profile to get a feel for how it will look and avoid unexpected colour shifts in your files. Ideally your screen should be calibrated so you know what you are giving them is accurate.
To understand the printing issue, try this exercise:
If you have a printer installed on your Mac, it probably also installed some printer profiles. In Aperture, look at one of your nicer vibrant images. From the view menu turn on 'Onscreen Proofing' and then from the 'Proofing Profile' sub menu, select one of your printer profiles and look at how the onscreen image changes. Repeat with each of the printing profiles and see how the image changes each time.
This is only a fraction of the colour shifts that will be occuring after you give your file to someone and they print it on their own uncalibrated system with their uncalibrated printer.
Many photographers don't offer full size images to their clients. They will usually give them smaller versions for their own use, which may include small size printing.
They will either do the main printing themself on their own calibrated printer, or work with a print shop, and may have installed calibrated profiles on their system for the shops printing equipment so they can use onscreen proofing to gauge what the pictures will look like when printed on that equipment.
But if you are just giving a file to someone, you lose all control of how they will print it. Even experienced photographers and computer users can struggle to make the prints match close to what they look like on screen.
Most often photos will appear too dark, or the colours look wrong, or it lacks sharpness. There are some settings on the export presets for gamma and blackpoint compensation. Gamma will brighten the image for when it's printing too dark, and blackpoint will try to stop the shadows turning black (within the chosen colour space). But as you don't know in advance whether the images are going to print too dark, or the shadows are turning black, you can't really set these for a one-size fits all scenario.
So there are not many settings to help you here.
You are actually moving into the realm of defining your product. You could, for example, ask the client which site they intend to publish the photos on, research that site and produce files optimized specifically for that site.
You also need to decide what size (resolution) files to give them for printing and whether you are happy giving away your full size images.
These choices will lead you to a number of a different files sizes as 'your product', all should be in sRGB colour space, and all with quality 10 or 11. For any client's who know how to make use of a wider clour space like Adobe RGB for printing, they will probably ask you up front to supply the print versions as such.
Next, for each size and usage, you now need to sharpen these images.
This is because sharpeing is best applied to images that have been resized to their intended output size and should be sharpened in accordance with how they will be viewed. Images displayed on computer screen generally need less sharpening than those that will be printed. Depening on the printer, the images may need some oversharpening in the file, in order to appear crisp and sharp in the print. As you won't be controlling the printing process you should probably avoid oversharpening. The bottom line is, if people are taking on the task of their own printing, they'll need to figure out what they are doing to get good results, or use a commercial printer.

Best AVI export settings for a XDCAM EX 1080i60 35VBR FCP timeline

I've editted a couple of XDCAM EX 1080i60 35VBR timelines in Final Cut Pro. The dimensions of the source footage and timeline sequence settings are 1920 x 1080 XDCAM EX 1080i60 35VBR.
They will be used at a large conference center and the client has asked me to delivery HD AVI files.
So far, everytime I export an AVI file from either the FCP timelines, or HD Quicktime XDCAM EX 1080i60 35VBR composites that I've made from the timeline, the AVI file that results is either alot smaller than the 1920 x 1080 quicktime file and/or pixelated to some degree, and not as clean as the HD quicktime.
I have very little experience with AVI and was hoping someone could suggest appropriate export settings. As I said, the client only indicated they want AVI files, and that their equipment can display HD files.
So I'm trying to maintain the quality of the original and editted footage.
I'd like to work with the tools and export options available within FCP7 (FCS3) and quicktime, as opposed to having to purchase some AVI transcoder, but I guess I'd be open to that if I had to otherwise take a huge quality hit.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.

I'd like to work with the tools and export options available within FCP7 (FCS3) and quicktime, as opposed to having to purchase some AVI transcoder
As far as I know there are no tools/export options within FCP7 (FCS3) and/or Quicktime to do what you probably want to do (compressed HD AVI export). But if a fully uncompressed 1920x1080 AVI export is ok for you / your client then you can use Export > Quicktime Conversion, set the Format to AVI and change the Options >> Video >> Settings >> Compression type to "None" ... bear in mind that this will produce some pretty big exports file size wise (about 6-7 GB per minute).
Or instead, you can download and use MPEG Streamclip. Open your HD Quicktime XDCAM EX 1080i60 35VBR composites into MPEG Streamclip and choose File > Export to AVI ... then in the AVI Exporter window you can +choose the codec+ you need and press the "Make AVI" button (leave the settings at default, especially Frame Size which should be "unscaled"). Note that AVI is just a wrapper, not a codec. Make sure you chose an HD capable codec that your client can handle (it's unlikely that they will be able to play back any Apple XDCAM EX variant, or indeed any codec that starts with "Apple").
Or just send them an unscaled H264 test file and see how they get on with that (and you can export H264 from FCP, Compressor, Quicktime and/or MPEG Streamclip). It's scalable (handles any resolution including HD) and is pretty much universally supported delivery codec. I'd expect your client would be happy to accept it if you explain that the format will offer the quality the need.
However you proceed I'd strongly recommend you send the client a few test encodes first to have them confirm that they can indeed read / handle your encodes correctly.
Hope it helps

Best project & export settings for GoPro 1080p 30fps - YouTube

Hi all,
Just made a new video for YouTube and it's come out a little grainy, no where near as good as the original. I know YouTube compresses footage but looking at other users with the same equipment my video quality is sub par, I seem to be editing them incorrectly causing quality loss. Footage has lot's of motion:
★ HD YAMAHA RAPTOR 700 TRAIL RIDING, OFFROAD & SUSPENSION SETTINGS! QUAD BIKE ATV ★ed - YouTube
My other videos don't seem as bad, not perfect, but maybe as this one had less light and lot's of bumps/motion it's finally come to light that something is not right.
For example look at this video, same equipment etc, similar conditions, but quality is much higher:
[HD] Raptor 700 GOPRO HERO 3 BLACK HD 1080p 2014 Raptor 700 x2 Riding in NYC - YouTube
Quite a big difference right?
I didn't realise there were project settings lol, I checked and it's set at 25FPS but my footage is 30FPS, would this cause issues? Export wise I did
I need help with project settings and export settings, can someone tell me what information you need from me to ascertain this?
Many thanks,
Toby

If you have source media = GoPro 1080p30, then your project preset should be
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR [email protected] or DSLR 1080p30 if the camera specification says 30 instead of 29.97 frames per second.
Either you set it manually or you make sure that the project is setting it automatically correctly.
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
When you go to export that to YouTube from within the Premiere Elements YouTube feature, you use the
preset = High Definition Video for Youtube - 1920 x 1080.
If you exceed the file size/duration limit of the YouTube feature within Premiere Elements, then you export the

Hello and thank you in advance for your help. I'm a newbie here and have read through many posts on exporting and found some good information here for creating a master http://forums.adobe.com/message/3005601. But, I am searching for export settings to send a 3:30 min. video to a client to upload to a website and you tube that is high resolution but not too huge of a file. I am looking for setting others have used to create this.
This is a SD tutorial video with a combination of .psd and .jpeg stills and graphics in After Effects compositions mixed in video footage. There are a lot of cross-dissolve transitions and I am getting pixelization with the settings below. It is a start, but I hope to get a smoother video for the web at 320x240 and 720x480.

Best possible export settings for XDCAM HD graded and minor vfx footage?

Hey all,
i know this question seems to be getting the hall of fame mark, but i cant figure out the best settings to export my HD footage, from premier, i usually mpeg2 the sequence and i get a great picture and sounds and even a reasonable filesize, but the same settings dont seem to work with after effects, is it something really lame that i'm not looking properly or its more than that, please help me out here.
Thanks

You should never use a lossy/compressed file format for intermediate files. The more times you introduce compression into the mix, the lower your final footage quality will be. Also, After Effects (especially earlier versions) doesn't play well with codecs that use interframe compression (such as MPEG). To be honest, it would be difficult for you to pick a worse thing to do.
If you're using After Effects CS5, I would just suggest importing your Premiere sequence into After Effects. It'll come in as a composition with the original footage with your edit. It will give you the most flexibility and you won't have to worry about generational data loss with exporting various codecs.
However, if you've got an earlier version of AE or if some of the effects and things you've applied in Premiere don't come over in an import very well, you will want to find a workable intermediate codec. You want it to be lossless to maintain quality, but a decent file size would be nice too. I have had good success using Quicktime with the PNG codec (not a PNG sequence). Others may have other suggestions, but that seems to work for me.

Best flash movie settings for HDTV playback

I am creating a flash video for a trade show for my company
for the first time, and we are bringing a large HDTV to play to
movie. Do I need specific settings in flash in order for it play
corectly on a large HDTV? I have never before created a DVD using
Flash, Adobe Premiere and Encore either. What are the best file
size an settings for optimun playback?

Getting your stuff out on TV or DVD or whatever means you need to experiment and see what works best.
Make misstakes, encounter unforseen issues, these are the best learning school.
Oh and get yourselve some dvd-rw´s for testing.
For the HDwmv 720P wil do just fine (i am not sure Pro2 can do this). I use them to. I have my pc hooked up to a HD projector via hdmi. Looks great on a big screen.

Best Quality Export Settings in MPEG Streamclip to Edit HD Video in iMovie

Hi,
I import video from data DVDs and regular DVDs and edit the videos in iMovie. In the past, I've always used MPEG Streamclip because it can read the native DVD VOB format. I then use the "Export to DV" option in MPEG Streamclip which exports a .DV file readable by QuickTime or iMovie. These are large files, but it is my understanding that this is best quality for editing.
Now I have started to receive HD Videos. When I use MPEG Streamclip the same way, it reduces the HD video into a windowbox 720x480 video loosing all HD resolution.
I've done some research online and apparently MPEG Streamclip's DV export options are pretty limited and other people have said to use the "Export to MPEG-4" or the "Export to QuickTime" which are more configurable. Each of these requires a Compression Codec Selection. Some have said to use H.264, but I've also read that you should not compress with H.264 if you're going to be doing editing.
I do not care about file size, I want maximum quality. The incoming DVD video is 1280 x 720 (HDTV 720p), what Compression selection do I select in MPEG Streamclip for "Export to MPEG-4" or "Export to QuickTime" to maintain the best quality for editing in iMovie? I appreciate your help!

Use Apple Intermediate Codec for best quality and best editing performance.
If you have Final Cut Pro installed, you may have additional good options like ProRes 422.

"Expert Settings" what's the very BEST quality export settings

In terms of picture quality, what's my best option? I have several jpegs of text in my movie and I need it to retain as much crispness as possible.
thanks

DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...
for using the iLife apps, you have to convert'em first, in recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
* DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
* Apple mpeg2 plugin (29$) + Streamclip (free)
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
* Toast 6/7 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
* connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
none of these apps override copyprotection mechanisms as on commercial dvds...

Best Sequence & Export settings For Best dVD quality

I Have footage of a wedding shot on a sony VX2000. The quality on Screen while editing looks great, but once i export it and burn it on DVD studio, when viewed the quality turns boxy and grandular on whatever TV i view it on. Are there any suggestions for a good sequence setting and export setting to work well with dvd studio pro and not lose any quality?? Thank You.

of course you're gonna lose quality. compressing already compressed marginal dv25 video to mpeg2 results in extremely compressed video, no way around that.
however, depending upon the length of your video and if you're using single or dual layer dvd media, you can mess with the bitrates to vary the amount of compression. compression is an art of trade offs and constant experimentation. if you're using compressor, start with the high quality presets and start testing. mess with the gop structure, the avg. and max bitrates.
good luck.

Best Export Settings For Fast/Low-Res QuickTime Movies

I couldn't find a discussion room for FCP 7 so I figured if anybody is proficiant with FCP X, they could help me.
Hello,
I really could use some help with my export settings using FinalCut Pro 7. Most of my shows are no more than 20 minutes and I pretty much know the best QuickTime export settings for uploading to Vimeo, Exposure Room,YouTube...etc. But now I am trying export a lengthy project at 53 minutes.
The footage is mixed and some of it was not converted to ProRes but it plays great and renders fine in the timeline. The sequence settings were picked automatically at 1920x1080 because of the main footage that was brought in.
This upload is for client viewing purposes ONLY so I really don't care about the quality as much as the export speed. As far as what I’ve tried - I am using the H.264 codec. I tried lowering it to NTSC 720x480, then tried 1280x720 HD. I set the compressor lower than medium and the Kbps (?) settings to AUTOMATIC when I typically set it manually, between 3000 and 5000. My audio is set at AAC.
It’s a crappy project because of the way it was frankenstein’d together in the field (I’m just cutting it), but I'm committed now and have a huge deadline. I'm getting a bit nervous because of how many hours it’s taking to export. The client is going to make inevitablec hanges and will want to see those changes quickly again - online.
NOTE: My Compressor does not work and I’ve never needed to use so far so that option is not available.
I could really use could some wisdom today!
Thanks so much to whomever can steer me in the right path.
