How to re-encode my video for internet upload?

Hi,
I need to upload a video to vimeo.com,
I exported it out of AE as a lossless quicktime animation.
Next thing i did was to export it out of quicktime as a MOV :H.264, double pass.
First the file size was just 17 MB, it astounded me, so I exported it again.
But now i used: HDV 1080, it looked even better (file size 64mb) but when i uploaded it onto vimeo my ramp was looking awful, even though i uploaded in HD?
Take a look for yourself:http://vimeo.com/3057769 (password: azerty789)
How can I solve this awful-looking ramp?
Thanks in advance!
Tom

>How can I solve this awful-looking ramp?
By not using compressed formats. ;-) Ultimately there will always be some minor banding, especially with MPEG derivatives that use chroma undersampling to increase compression efficiency. Unless you can employ the usual tricks like introducing minor noise or adaptive blurring to enforce a different block pattern, there's no way to completely avoid it. Also look into using other tools to do the actual compression. QT Pro is not bad, but other tools may be even better...

  • Quicktime : how to encode a video for the N95

    Hi !
    I have a N95 8Go and a Mac...
    I use Quicktime Pro to encode videos and I want to make H.264 videos for my N95. Sadly, all videos I've created can't be read by N95's Real Player (audio/video error).
    How can I do ?
    Thank you

    I've never used Quicktime PRO but I saw a tutorial once.
    Maybe this can help:

  • Encoding home videos for IPhone, AppleTV and IPod Touch

    Hi Folks,
    I'm on latest version of Compressor and FCP.
    Objective: to encode home video transfers to a format that is suitable for AppleTV, IPhone and Ipod Touch - in an efficient manner (this is key)
    99% of the videos would be VHS and camcorder tapes in SD format.
    I mentioned efficient manner b/c I tried running and Iphone encode through the presets in Compressor for a 2 hour VHS transfer - nothing fancy, just 12 chapters. I'm on my 2009 quad mac pro with 8 GBs RAM.
    The estimator through the 'share' feature said it was going to take over 3 hours before I quit. The other reason I quit is b/c it won't be compatible with AppleTV.
    I created DVDs for my client so I tried handbrake using the video_Ts folder and it created an IPhone/IPod Touch file no problem - only 40 minutes. Not bad. I tried the Universal preset and QT gives me an error that the finalized file isn't compatible.
    I guess my question is: does it matter quality wise, if I run through Handbrake vs compressor? For this particular client, there are 12 hours worth of videos to compress.
    I know about setting up a cluster on my mac pro, but everytime I try more than 1 file in a batch, the subsequent files fail. I can't even set a cluster up with my 2006 mac pro either - yes, I've had discussions with FCP support staff and have tickets. It's a bug
    So, any thoughts? 3 hours (at a minimum) seems awfully long to compress.
    Of course, I would be charging my client for these videos, but at that length of time, I'm not sure what a feasible cost would be for both sides.
    Cheers,
    keebler

    If you are send out self contained movies to be processed in Compressor with Standard Presets (no adjustment to frame controls) you should be getting decent speed. If you want I can try encoding a two hour DV clip. How far did the encoding get before you stopped it? The estimates are not necessarily accurate at the beginning.
    Also if you can get the Clusters working (disregarding the size of the batches for a moment) should help with speed. I run into limits of around 20 per batch so make multiple batches. Not the most optimal way, but could be worth it to get them all going. Set them up for overnight and it should be done in the AM.
    Creating off the Video_TS folder is compressing compressed material, so it could (should) reduce quality when compared to encoding original source material, though based on the quality of the source it may be more academic...
    I would try to get the Compressor end working myself. (Ignore using share, just open Compressor and put movies into it.)

  • How to unset the 'use itunes for internet music playback' option

    In Advanced Preferences, I mistakenly clicked the SET button for "Use itunes for internet music playback". Since then, I have closed and opened itunes, so it appears the preference has been saved (the field is no longer highlighted)
    I cannot find any way to unset this option. I want to unset this option. Could someone please tell me how?

    I don't think that deleting the plist file will help.
    Clicking that button sets the handler for a bunch of file types. You can't just unset it, you need to set the handler to something other than iTunes. Normally audio and video are handled by the Quicktime Plugin. You can restore that behavior in System Preferences:
    System Preferences -> QuickTime (in the Internet and Network set) -> Advanced -> Mime Settings...
    You may have other plugins or programs you want to use for some formats (like .wmv or .avi). Those programs should be able to reclaim the file and MIME types from their preferences.

  • How can one store hd video for use with ipad and apple tv?

    I'm looking for solutions. I don't have a computer. Not interested in renting what i really like or collecting blu rays.
    Buy enough hd video films from the store and the iPad runs out of hard drive. I could buy more storage from the iCloud. What else could I do? The new apple tvs don't have a hard drive for storage. Hypershop.com has a hyperdrive external drive for the iPad, but 720P, is that full HD? They also have a new kickstarter funded product cloudFTP which connects hard drives etc to the iPad wirelessly. Not sure if this would work ok.
    Any other ideas?

    There are some cables you can use. Depends on what model iPad you have and what interface is on the projector. You could also get a router to take with you and set up your wifi connection. There's some portable routers.
    You can connect via a cable or wireless using an Apple TV.

  • Encoding live video for the Wii?

    I notice that FME and FMLE only allow VP6 and H264 as the
    video encoding options.
    I understand that the Nintendo Wii, with its Opera browser,
    can play back Flash Video that is in the Sorenson Spark codec. Is
    it therefore possible to encode LIVE video using Sorenson Spark
    that could be played back in the Flash player on the Wii?
    Or, is it the case that the version of Flash that the Wii
    supports will only playback pre-recorded Sorenson Spark video and
    not live streams?
    Thanks,
    D.

    When live streaming was first introduced with FCS you would
    utilize a web based encoder that utilized the spark codec and had
    the same look and feel as the current desktop based software. This
    was available from CDN's but could be built within flash as well. I
    found a simple one which will achieve connect and publish to a
    server for you.
    http://www.flvhosting.com/download/index.php?file=1livestream_by_FLV_Hosting.zip
    This one is simple but others do exist which allow setting
    framerates, video source, etc.

  • Encoding music video for Youtube - any advantage of using Pro (AME) over Elements?

    I am in the process of encoding some music videos for youtube.  I'm currently using Steve Grisetti's suggested settings from mid-2011 here:  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/623549
    What I'm wondering is if the Adobe Media Encoder provided with Premiere Pro (or another such program with more features than the Premiere Elements 7 encoder) would provide better results?   For example, I noticed those programs have options such as 256kbps audio, 2-pass, and Variable Bit Rate (which PE7 doesn't seem to have).  Would that provide better quality?  Of course, I need the very best audio possible. 
    Also, I've read from various other people's suggestions, that FLV is a better export choice than h264 since less recoding by Youtube is done- any truth to that?
    Lastly, would exporting to 1080 instead of 720 (and therefore giving youtube users the option of choosing either 1080 or 720) be better for the long term, or is there any reason why 720 is suggested?
    My videos are short and were edited from DVD vob files.  I've very new to encoding so really appreciate the suggestions!
    Thanks!

    I doubt that even a discerning ear to tell the original source Audio, after YouTube gets through Transcoding it for display. Also, viewers will be listening through their computer's speakers, and not a full home theater setup, where the Bit-Rate might make a slight difference. Also, most folk today, think that MP3's through ear-buds are "high fidelity."
    The only plus for using AME is that once you have queued the Project up, you can do other things, while it is processing the file.
    Good luck,

  • How to Change Default Iview Properties for Role Upload?

    Hello,
    We have many roles to upload from R/3 ABAp system to NW2004s EP.
    We use the Role Upload tool in the Portal to achieve this.
    It works fine, the roles are created in the portal and can be assigned to users.
    The fall back is that we have to modify every single transaction iview in the portal after the upload to modify the SAP GuiType from "SAP GUI for HTML" to "SAP GUI For Windows".
    How can we change the default model used of SAP GuiType for uploading transaction iviews in uploaded roles?
    Also, the uploaded role is not flaged as an "Entry Point", is there a way to set this marker to "Yes" as a default value for all uploaded roles?
    Best regards.

    This is one of Acrobat's less intuitive areas!
    For defaults, right-click on the text box that is as you want it: then select menu item 'Make current properties default'
    Use Ctrl-E to bring up the Properties toolbar: its content will change depending on whether you have the box or the text selected, and selecting the box or text can be a bit clunky.
    Steve.

  • How Can I Encode a Video and Lose the Black Bars?

    I have a .wmv file.  According to the properties it is 720x480.  The video is rectangle, not square...  So I'm assuming it is technically widescreen.  I brought it into premiere cs4 to auto color it.  I'm exporting it with media encoder and this video has black bars.  Is there a way to get rid of them?  It seems when I play the file on my PC before doing anything in premiere, they are at the top and bottom.  Right now I am exporting it and in the little preview box they seem to be on the top, bottom and slightly wider ones on both sides.  Not sure how those got put in the mix.  Can I get rid of all black bars?  I'm guessing the camcorder puts them there at the top and bottom, so how would i know what the height and width of the video would be without them anyway?  I'm confused...
    The project settings were standard ntsc DV at 720x480 widescreen.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your reply Hunt...  I got the program and loaded my video file into it.
    The PAR and DAR area is blank.  It does say SAR 1.500 (3:2)...  Does that help?
    Thanks!

  • How do I fix my homepage for Internet Explorer use, when using dreamweaver?

    Hi,
    I have recently created my first two webpages, and they looked like they were working when I was using Firefox. But when using Internet Explorer one of the pages drop the text down to an area of the screen where it's impossible to read it. Can someone please help me out? I am using Dreamweaver and I'm sure there is a basic problem I've created for myself, but I can't figure out what it is! This is the webpage I'm having problems with: www.haanshuus.no.
    Thanks a lot for any help in resolving this problem!

    I don't think this has anything to do with the conditional comments.
    The problem is with your layout approach.  Trying to precisely fit content over a very large background image never works as planned.  If you increase text size in any browser (Zoom text only, Ctrl+++), your black content spills out of the gray box into the black region below.  Black text on black background becomes invisible.    Your approach works in Print design but fails on the web because web pages need to be flexible.
    Remove your Body background image and notice how your page flows.  A different approach would be to slice your background into sections to create a flexible gray box.

  • Creating Video for Internet Viewing

    Hi
    I am wanting to create short videos (of up to 10 mins) and upload them to my website. Can anyone advise on the following questions:
    1. What's the best format for online viewing?
    2. What can I do whilst exporting the video in FCE to create a file which downloads quickly but doesn't compromise quality?
    3. How would the answers to the above differ if I were to use HD instead of SD?
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    Piers ONeill wrote:
    1. What's the best format for online viewing?
    MPEG and H.264 codec (supported by quicktime for mac or windows) are great.
    May be you web hosting provider has some spec and restriction (about size and bandwith) that you have to take in count. Ask him about those limits. There are also youtube, vimeo and other free service.
    2. What can I do whilst exporting the video in FCE to create a file which downloads quickly but doesn't compromise quality?
    That's the graal of compression. Different content involve different compression settings. Frame size, data rate, level of compression, audio format, rapid moving subjects, etc. That are many factors to take in account. Try by yourself with 1 minute sequence to test the result.
    Look at those links to get more infos:
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/compressor_h-264_moviesfcp.html (compressor info but relevant for quicktime conversion)
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/you_tube_reduxgary.html
    3. How would the answers to the above differ if I were to use HD instead of SD?
    HD is around 5 times the pixel count than DV, so their final size is larger than SD. HD content reduced to SD smaller frame size give better result that SD at SD frame size.

  • How to use 2 TMG Servers for Internet Access

    Hi there,
    This is what we have setup at the moment.
    We have two TMG 2010 SP2 Servers, let's call them TMG1 & TMG2. They sit in two different sites (physically not logically) which I will refer to as Site1 and Site2. TMG1 sits in Site1 and TMG2 in Site2.
    All internal users access the Internet via TMG1. They all have TMG Clients installed and they receive TMG1 as their proxy server (WPAD) via our DHCP servers. 
    I feel bad to see that TMG2 cannot take a little bit of traffic off from TMG1 for those who want to access the Internet. How can I go about doing this. I can achieve this by adding the TMG2 manually on TMG Clients but I prefer to do this automatically. Is
    there a way to publish TMG2 in WPAD while TMG1 is already there? Dont forget we only have the luxury of using two TMG
    Standard servers. :(
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    You can consider to configure the Forefront TMG Arrays or NLB.

  • How about using a 60fps video for a smooth slow motion effect in a 30fps project ?

    Hey all,
    I happen to have a video camera that is able to shoot either in 720p/60fps or 720p/30fps.
    As you guessed it, 60 fps mode is very useful for action sports when you want to do some slow motion effect running very smoothly.
    I have few questions I would love to be answered, and I was not able to find answers till now.
    Here they are :
    1/ If I want my final video file to be, let's say, 25 fps, is it mandatory that my project is 25 fps too ?
    What will happen if I do a 30fps project and that I export to a 25fps file ? Does Premiere simply remove some extra frames ? Or will it lead to a longer video ? What consequence on the final result if frames are removed ? I mean, will I be able to see any difference or will the difference remain theorical ?
    2/ Let's say I have both 30fps and 60fps videos. I set my project to 30fps. If I import my 60fps video to the timeline, it will be adjusted to 30fps and some frames disappear to keep the duration the same. Okay, this is clear to me.
    But now, what if I import my 60fps to the timeline, but set the speed to 50% ? Will Premiere apply the 50% to the original file (therefore I should have all the frames displayed on the timeline : 60/2=30 fps), or to the 30fps-adjusted file of the timeline, leading to some jerky footage?
    3/ If I want to use my 60fps for slow motion purpose in my 30fps project, would it be a good idea to right-click on this file in the project windows, going to the "modify" menu to set the image frequency to 30fps ?
    Because while doing so, if I drag the file to the timeline, I noticed it would last 2 times longer (resulting in a slow motion video) Does that mean that ALL the frames of the original video are displayed ? Can someone tell me what exactly does Premiere ?
    I would be very grateful if someone could tell me what are the correct settings to chose in order to realise the best slow motion videos as possible.
    Thanks in advance !

    With due respect... this does not answer my question and does not help me that much , but anyway, thank you for the very constructive answer ^^.
    I'm not sure I would even have considered doing this by myself...
    I hope I do not get this kind of answer because you feel like my question was silly or unpolite... To my mind this was a pretty serious question.
    Shooternz, next time you need to go 150 km far away from where you are, go by feet rather than with a car, I'm sure you will have plenty of satisfaction too. Just cross the fingers for you not to be in a hurry while it's raining outside.
    Well, I may be naive but i thought some experts already had the answer to this (I guess I'm not the only one who intend to do some slo mo), and would have been kind enough to share this knowledge with me. That's what sometimes happens in communities.
    Please note I do not intend others to do the job for me, I'm just asking if someone already knows the answer.
    I asked this question because I couldn't find any documentation about this, and I guess asking on internet was the next step, as testing would be like the last resort, being very time consuming.
    It was easy to check the effect of dragging a file to the timeline to see if it played normally or not, but it's definitely not to count and compare each frame of some sample file to find if some are lacking, or have been doubled or what....
    I assume I would be very happy with just a simple theorical answer either...
    So once again, if someone already has been into such questions, I would really pleased him or her to share or report what they experienced. Thanks in advance.
