Output for web.  .flv

I'm having some issues with exporting for web use.
we use flash player to stream video on the web... .flv files.
what I do before giving my files to the web guys is...
edit
and export with "none" compression to preserve all color.
the web guys then take the file and compress it to .flv with Sorenson.
Many videos have been coming out choppy after the .flv compress. my compress is fine it seems. (ie they jump.. seem to be missing frames)
This does not happen every time.. in fact last week 2 vids with the same settings were finished. one was choppy one was not. everything was done the same.
any ideas?
Thanks
Kyle

Thanks for the input!
this is what I thought as well!<
We cannot tell to whom you are referring; try quoting the helpful text.
If your video is clean, it's their compression. Let them figure it out, that's their job.
If your video files jump they either jump in the exact same place every time or they jump in different places when played back. If different, your video is fine, it's the playback application or drive r PC that's at fault. If they jump at the same place every playback, you are giving them a bad copy.

  • Output for Web (Vimeo)

    I have a short 1 min. 15 sec. clip in HD I'm trying to output for web to share on Vimeo. Has anyone mess around with the compression setting for best output on the web? I've used the compression recommendations on Vimeo's web page, but FCE 4.0.1 is taking about 23 mins to Export. Is that normal for a 1 min and 15 second clip?

    It's important to understand that hardware acceleration doesn't speed up encoding at all.  Not with CUDA, not with OpenCL.  Hardware acceleration speeds up the processing of certain effects, scaling, blending modes, and frame rate differences, but doesn't help at all with decoding and encoding of media.  So whether or not your export will speed up depends on whether or not you've got any of those hardware accelerated situations going on.  If you don't, then hardware acceleration won't make any difference in the export times.
    Having said that, you don't necessarilly need CUDA to get hardware acceleration.  Premiere Pro CC now offers OpenCL on Windows machines with AMD cards.

  • Trouble outputting for web use

    I have had various problems outputting documents to Jpegs for use on a webpage. I am exporting at the standard res of 72 ppi but find the quality unacceptable when I import these into i-web. Could this have something to do with the resolution certain images were scanned or imported at? Also the text is not reproduced as crisp as expected.
    I am a bit of a novice in terms of Indesign so there may be an obvious solution that I haven't considered. Any help would be gratefully recieved.
    Thanks

    Hi Bob,
    Thanks for your help so far. I've tried exporting the PDF then converting to JPG in PS but the image quality appears to be worse than ever! Not sure if the settings I used for PDF where suitable for web use. Any ideas on how to maximise quality, maintaining crispness of fonts?
    Thanks

  • Output for Web

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a better solution..
    Currently, to output web files to show clients, I render out a loseless animation .mov from After Effects, then bring that into compressor. And then output an h264 streaming .mov usually at about 1200kbps..
    Is there a way to eliminate a step and get the same result directly from AE?
    Thanks!!

    Due to the nature of compression and the nature of Rendering, you won't get superior compression without compressing a pre-rendered movie. Compression schemes look to the frames before, and after the current frame to compress the data more efficiently. You can generate a .h264 movie out of AE, but the render engine won't be able to process the frame "after" the current frame, as it hasn't been rendered yet, and as such, won't be able to provide the best possible compression. Your current workflow is more ideal, although it is an extra step.

  • Best settings for outputting for web

    Hello All!!
    I'm hoping someone can help me out.... I'm outputting quicktimes to be uploaded to a web server so they can be embeded on a site for a show reel. What is the best compression setting for a quicktime that maintains it's image quality but loads fast? I've been using h.264 and limiting it to 700 and 800 kbps, im 4:1 audio, deinterlaced, 720x480.
    the quicktimes range in length from 1min to 4min. I used Vimeo's setting and that looks the best, but takes too long to load on web server.
    I've tried different rates for kbps as well as all the suggested pre-sets in Compressor, and my qt's are still coming out 'soft', and I'm not sure what else to try.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro 10.6.7 with 2.6 ghz Intel Core Duo and 4gb of memory, FCP 7.03.
    Thank you for all suggestions and help!!

    You'll just want to play with it. One trick I like to use, if there's not a lot of panning going on in the audio, is to drop the audio to mono. Cuts the audio bandwidth in half, allowing more room for video to move.

  • Outputting for web

    So I am somewhat famailar with Final Cut Pro and Compressor, but there is one problem I am having. I need my videos to be output in MPEG format to be displayed on the internet. Problem is, the only one I know that properly outputs the file to MPEG is MPEG-1, but it won't allow me to specify the size of the video. The default is something small, like 352x280, which is too small.
    How can I have Compressor output the file as an MPEG file, while letting me specify the dimensions of the movie?
    Thanks in advance.

    You need to make a copy of the preset, you cannot change one of the installed presets.
    Or you can just make a new MPEG-1 setting. The presets will have the options greyed out. A copy of the preset or a new one will not have the options greyed out. (Or at least that is how it should work )
    Let me know if it is not working still.

  • What's the optimal output for web?

    i have quicktime Pro - i'm trying to extract video footage from a dv file (my cinematographer's reel) and post it on my website. is MPEG4 the best i can do? and if so, how do i optimize that? if the footage was shot in dv - do i set it at 29 frames in the export Options? what about "key frames" - do i set that at 24 (default) or some other number? looking to get a decent movie file that doesn't look like rubic's cube w/ all the pixel squares.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Jon,
    just a few questions to your reply:
    H.264 would provide
    better quality at given data rate and scales much
    better but requires QT 7 for both you and your
    viewers.
    Do most people have QT 7 at this point or is it best to post the movie in the most accessible format and sacrifice some rez? My H.264 is greyed out - perhaps because i'm not using HD footage? any idea?
    Optimization
    depends on many things such as target encode display
    dimensions, amount of storage space/bandwith
    available, and even the actual content itself. Since
    you have not indicated your goals here, it is
    difficult to provide concrete guidelines.
    i'm not that technically advanced to know the answer to this. i'm basically posting this to iWeb - i have maybe half a gig of storage on my website so i don't have to be that frugal. just want something to be decent quality but probably no more than 20 MB
    In the absence of other,
    overriding needs, it is generally best to set the
    frame rate to "current."
    what about "key
    frames" - do i set that at 24 (default) or some other
    number?Key frame rate is
    dependent on the content. Rapid motion, transitions,
    and the like require more key frames while slow
    motion, non-changing scenes require fewer. Generally
    speaking it may be best to use the "Automatic"
    setting for "average" videos. This setting applies
    the basic "Rule of Five" or a frame rate equal to
    five time the frame rate. The advantage here is, if
    there is a large inter-frame change in data, QT will
    insert extra frames as/if needed. Basically, the more
    key frames, the better the quality but larger the
    file size or greater the compression between frames.
    that makes sense. i don't have any slow motion so i'd like to make it look
    as smooth as possible.
    Thanks,
    STeve
    looking to get a
    decent movie file that doesn't look like rubic's cube
    w/ all the pixel
    squares.Pixilation can still
    occur with MPEG-4 when target compression is too high
    (i.e., the data rate drops too low for the encode
    display dimensions and content). This is one of the
    ares where H.264 really stands out. It can usually
    produce fairly good HD 720p (1280 x 720 progressive

  • Help please with output settings in Save For Web Photoshop CS4

    I am new to CS4 Photoshop so have been watching tutorials on Lynda.com. According to that tutorial I should have the ability to save a photo as an image in the Output Settings dialog box. The only options my panel gives me are:
    HTML
    Slices
    Background
    Saving Files
    I don't have the option for Images Only or for HTML & Images. Are these two hidden somewhere?
    I have been experimenting with Save For Web, but when I click on Save I get a panel that lists all the images saved in a folder named "Photos" but I cannot find in that folder any of the images that I optimized and saved for the web. Where are they to be found? Images that show up in Bridge are not my optimized images either.I would be grateful for some assistance with this.

    Those settings, HTML, Slices, etc, are the Output Settings you don't normally need to change aonything in there.
    Leave it at default and you will just save a version of the image stripped of unnecessary data and reduced to the degree you specified next to the file format choice.
    When you press Save in the SfW interface it calls up a Windows OS Save dialog box showing the last used location.
    The destination can be changed in the normal way. The Images you already saved will be in the the location that was in that dialog when you saved them.
    There is a lot more information in the help pages on this topic!  (Hint.)

  • How can I get PS CC to always load my preferred Preset while saving for web output?

    For my purposes, I'd prefer to save all JPEGs at 100% quality while saving for web output. I've made a preset as seen below.
    However, PS doesn't always defer to this setting when I begin saving an image for web. Is there a way to make this preset automatically
    load every time I open the output to web process? I process a large number of images, and if I could avoid correcting this it would save me a lot of time.
    I'm using PS CC on a PC. Any help will be appreciated!

    This is the only custom preset I've made with this particular system. So I'd need to delete the pre-loaded PS presets?
    I'm a little loathe to remove the options in case they might be needed in the future or for a task other than the primary one described.

  • Save For Web - Default Output Settings

    Hi all!
    When I use "Save For Web" in Illustrator CS5, I don't like having hypens in my file names (it messes with alphabetical sorting when some of my similarly-named files have hypens, the rest have spaces). So everytime I export an image for the first time using save for web, I have to go into "output settings > saving files" and uncheck "Unix Filename Compatibility". Having to do this every time is a little annoying.
    I tried unchecking that box, and then saving the output settings as a settings profile, overwritting "default settings.iros", hoping that Illustrator would load that file everytime and leave the Unix box unchecked. But alas, that did not work, and when I go to "Save For Web" now on a new image, instead of using the default settings profile, it just uses "Custom" instead, with the Unix box checked.
    So it seems Illustrator would rather use it's own default settings, instead of mine. Is there any way I can set it to stop checking that box every time I create a new image and export it for the first time?
    Thanks!

  • Photoshop CS3 Save for Web Outputs Large Filesizes

    Hi guys,
    I have been using Photoshop CS3 for many happy years and over the last few weeks I have noticed something very unusual. When I use Save for Web and save jpegs, gifs, or other images, the estimated file size which shows in the corner is being heavily inflated when I look at the actual file size of the files it's outputting.
    I am having to open up the files in Preview and then do another save as jpeg to get the file size down!
    For example, I regularly make small 200px wide by 96px high logos for a clients website and have been doing this for a few years. The average file size of these is about 5KB, which is what I aim for. When I use Save For Web now, it will indeed show an output size of around 5KB, however, Finder reveals the size is 17KB or higher!
    Why is it doing this and how do I put a stop to it? It is very frustrating and time-wasting to use third-party apps to fix simple small things like this. Please don't suggest I upgrade to CS5 to fix the problem.
    Cheers

    Thanks for your help, I don't know if I reset my save for web preferences as I tried the keyboard shortcut method shown in the other forum post you provided, however, I didn't see any feedback indicating if it worked. Also, they were using PC keyboard commands not Mac, so I tried using either Control and Command just in case.
    Either way I tried another thing while I was in the Save for Web dialog, I clicked on the little arrow the points to the right underneath the Done button and to the right of the Preset drop-down. It is called the "Optimize Menu", I then clicked on "Edit Output Settings" and chose "Default Settings" from the "Settings" drop-down.
    My saved image file is now 5KB! Finder shows it as 8KB, however, Dreamweaver is showing it as 5KB which is all I wanted!! Hooray!

  • Sharpening for web gallery output?

    I'm just wondering what you all do to sharpen your images for output to web galleries, since LR doesn't offer this as a possibility.
    I guess one way would be to open the images from the gallery folder and do a batch process in Photoshop. But I'm curious to know if there's a simpler or more efficient way to go about it.

    In PS, using "Droplets" one can generate operating system level
    executables. They provide a mean to hand image files over to "actions"
    (macros) recorded in PS.
    In order to create an "export action" for LR, one would roughly do the
    following:
    - In PS, record an action which does the following:
    * Apply USM with suitable parameters (like radius 0.9, amount 30,
    treshold 3) to an image already opened in PS.
    * Save for web/save as JPEG (target folder will be hardcoded and thus
    fixed).
    * Close image without saving changes.
    - In PS, select File / Automate / Droplet and create a new droplet
    * Choose an executable file name
    * select the previously recorded action
    * choose target: none (Since we already saved files to JPEG)
    - Put the generated executable or a shortcut/link to it into LR's
    "export action" folder.
    For export with output sharpen, in LR:
    - File / Export
    - Choose some target folder (will be fixed; for temporary image files)
    - file format: PSD or TIFF
    - color space: sRGB (for web export)
    - maximum size: target size as needed, e.G. 1280x1024 for SXGA files
    - export action: select the previously created droplet
    Save these settings as a new export preset (like "SXGA").
    From now on, one would just need to export using that preset. LR would
    render already resized PSD files, start PS, batch sharpen them and save
    JPEG files to the directory chosen while recording the PS action.

  • CS5 - Mountain Lion Upgrade has ruined "save for web & devices" output

    As title - I make a lot of web graphics, and immediately post-upgrade (from Snow Leopard - I jumped 2 OS versions) the output from Illustrator to PNG or JPG, regardless of settings, is awful.
    I had to output a small icon at full size and do the job in Photoshop - which worked perfectly.
    I've seen whispers on other forums of other users with the exact issue, but there's nothing like a resolution to it that I can see.
    Any ideas clever folk?

    Hi Mike,
    Thanks for this - I didn't think your answer would help initially, but it did!
    Somehow the reinstall of Mountain Lion, as far as I can tell, changed what I had always considered the "default" setting in the "image size" tab of "save for web" from "art optimized" to "none"
    A quick tweak back (to either that option or the "type optimized") and all is well, we're back in the game.
    Thanks so much!
    Paul.

  • Audio output levels for web compression...

    What is the highest db setting to use when outputting from Premiere. I just started using it and I did a few test for web compression and the audio seemed low.
    I tried some material that I had editied in FCP and setting the same levels for output and it gave me different results.
    What is highest we should go at peak level? -3.
    Worked with FCP and Soundtrack Pro so I kinda have a system worked mixing audio. Just need to transfer to Premiere.
    Thanks in advance

    Already, you have gotten three answers, expressing three personal choices. They are somewhat close, but each differs by the editor.
    I am glad that you are asking, because one of my really big pet-peeves is to find a tutorial, that I really want to view, only to have an ad, that runs before the tutorial hit at about +6dB above the Audio levels of the tutorial (like ads on many TV broadcasts), and I have to quickly attenuate the Volume, only to have to ride the Volume up, to hear that tutorial. This can be really painful, if I am working with my headphones on.
    Though not directly related to your specific question, I find that most DVD's, and BD's have the Intro, and Menu Audio set too loud. When doing authoring, I attenuate the Audio for both down, to slightly below the Levels of the actual disc. I want those to be "background" only, and never want users running for the Volume control.
    Good luck, and hope that you do find a "sweet spot," that works for your material.
