Best settings for converting videos

I have been using Visual Hub to get my videos in the
right format for my Apple TV.
When I try to copy these to my iPhone, it says they
aren't compatible. What settings should I use to get
these videos viewable on my iPhone and when using the
new setting, will they still be viewable on my Apple
TV and look good?
Thanks.
I share your grief. I converted all my videos for the Apple TV and now have to re-covert them to the iPod format to get them to play on my iPhone. I am a massive Mac fan, but this has left me a bit po'd. Not to mention it's further bloating up my iTunes library, which has turned into a sloth since adding in all the media for my Apple TV. I'm now at 97+ gigs. The rest of my machine is fast (DUal 2.3 G5 tower with 2.5gb ram) but iTunes is a dog.

best quality then use high bitrate, small size use low bitrate.

Best settings for 4k video in Premiere Pro CS6

I am trying to nail this down. I have an (Asus G20AJ Series) ASUS i7 3.6 Ghz with 16GB RAM 64 bit. I now have a drone that uses 4k video. I am pretty sure I have the rendering down but I wanted to ask if you guys can suggest options for all the best settings for setup, playback and export of the video. My drone does video of 4096x2160 @23 fps. When I went to render the 6 minute file, wow, it was going to take more than 4 hours! Is this right? Any info you can suggest would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

4 hours sounds about right for this source material on such a system. Better hardware may be needed to reduce the exporting time or you have to convert the source material to a less demanding format.

What is the best software for converting video files to .ogg format?

In trying to html5 compliant I want to convert my video files to the .ogg format. After a lot of searching for video converters, I cannot find one that does this; although several claim to but actually don't. Converting audio isn't so much of a problem. So, can you suggest a tool for converting video files to .ogg format?

Best settings for ipod video playback on TV

I would like to know which video format is the best for a very good video playback on TV using ipod video ? And which settings choose for the video to have the best possible quality on TV, while still being able to store a lot of videos on the ipod.
I use a 1.67ghz powerbook, and the convertion process is so long, is it normal for it to be that long. I thought that powerbook were suppose to be really fast. Would buying more ram help ?
thank you

If you're using QuickTime Pro's "Movie to iPod", then you're getting very good video quality. The reason why this takes so long is that instead of just compressing the video, it first examines the entire video looking for places that may be a little more difficult to encode (cross fades, cuts, high motion) then spending more time on them in the second pass. So, yeah, it's normal to take that long, but, in this case, that's how you get the best output.
Depending on your source (if it's from a VHS tape or something like that) you might want to download MPEG Streamclip and try H.263 or H.264 with only one pass. It's a bit faster and the results still look pretty good so that may suit you as well.

Best program for converting videos

what is a good program to conver videos to the ipod?

this all depends on what kind of video you are wanting to put on your ipod i would think that quick time pro7 would be the best if you have a mac(which i dont so im only guessing), i have a xp pro and found as the others have stated that videora was the easiest and fastest way to put video on my ipod.i purchased quick time pro 7 and found that it took way to long to convert the files to .m4v format additionally losing sound for the file everytime i converted it. i could not get in to the sound management for the file when using quick time pro 7, videora is already set up for the sound for the video. i never once tried converting files to .mp4 with quick time pro 7, but when converting to .m4v file it took forever to convert a 12 minute video(4-6 hours minimum). quick time pro 7 has lots of cool features if you are putting your personally recorded videos which videora does not. those are the pluses and minuses i have found with both programs. i would suggest you try free first and if you need better tools for your video, purchase quicktime pro 7.

[E71 on Linux] Best settings for encoding video?

Hello all,
I have an E71 and I would like to encode videos on my Linux box for it.
I have a script for that, using MPlayer's MEncode. I'd like to know what are the best settings, i.e.: Resolution, Video Bit rate, Audio Bit rate and Codec / file format.
Also, what is the best video player out there for the Symbian 9.1 3rd., preferably a freeware app...
I have DivX Mobile installed and the built-in Real Player (very poor quality playback - maybe because incorrect encoding?)
Thanks!

Enough of the data you need is most likely on these two pages:

What is the best program for converting videos?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
If the videos are on your computer, just drag them into iTunes when viewing the library. Then right click it and go to convert video for ipod.
If you want to do that, make sure iTunes is up to date...

Best Settings For Converting Audio Music CD's To MP3 Format

I have a huge collection (between my dad and I) of music CD's that I want to add to iTunes and put on several iPods (my 80 GB Classic, his 16 GB Nano and my mom's 8 GB Nano). What are the best settings to accomplish this and have it sound the best when loaded onto the iPods?

Depending on how good your headphones are and how good your hearing is different settings will yield acceptable results. The old, years ago, MP3 setting was always 128k. This is generally a decent compromise between file size and audio quality.
If all devices are iPods the you can get slightly better audio with same size files by using AAC format set to 160k.

Best settings for web video

I am going to encode some videos of a Dr.'s office I shot with a Canon xh-a1 in widescreen sd to the web. I am thinking 320x240 but do not know what the best type of file to use for the web. Also I have noticed that there are black borders at the top and bottom when I chose a format even when I have it in 1.333 ratio. Any way around this? Any file size, compression settings I should keep in mind? These videos will be a part of a website. Thanks for any help.

As per Jim's comments, I'd start with the intended site to see what their specs were and use those as the starting point. If YouTube, then that would be what I'd go with. Vimeo, the same, and on down the list. Each one might do the best with different settings.
If you are going to the Web on your own site, then your Web designer will have the specs for what is preferred, both in format, and size to fit the design of the page. They can also tell you if you need to embed the material in a player.
Good luck,
Hunt

Best settings for YouTube video?

I've just finished editing my first video in iMovie and would like to export it to upload to YouTube. The YouTube site asks for MPEG4 at 320x240 pixels, 30fps, with MP3 audio. But what about all the other settings in the advanced export settings? Does anyone know what they should be for best results?
Thanks in advance.

This, from Karsten Schlülter (YouTuber):
I recommend in the expert settings:
mpeg4 as comprossor
in the options:
320x240 (youtube's "native" res)
30 fps (for fast action), 15 fps (to generate smaller files for longer movies)
the bitrate slider...- 500kB/sec is an excellent quality for such res (and generates laaarge files), but the conversion at youtube adds a lot of artfifacts...

Whats the best settings for exporting a three camera youtube video on a mac book pro

I need help figureing out Whats the best settings for exporting a three camera youtube video on a mac book pro. I use 15 or 30 fps and aI cant figurwe it out [please help

chucknoris501
What version of Premiere Elements are you using on Mac?
Export your Timeline content to a .mp4 file, using export settings which have been customized under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the export's preset.
See Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD and .mp4 category. The exported file is then uploaded to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
If you post the properties of your source video and project settings, I will suggest the settings for the Timeline content export to file saved to the computer
hard drive for upload to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
