What are good settings for a QT movie on .Mac?

QTimers,
I post movies edited in FCPro 3 on a .Mac web site for the in-laws. They are on a DSL line. When I export the finished video from FCP to a QT movie, I face a vast array of choices that I don't understand. I can choose from many video codecs, and I have to choose a key frame rate, and a size (I chose 320x240). The movie I did today came in at 27Mb, and it's only a minute in length!
Can someone recommend some settings that will not create huge files?
Thanks.

So long as the recipients have QT7 try the H.264 codec. I have a couple of movies which I've exported at 384x288 (half size PAL) at 256kbps video data rate, 128kbps audio, full frame rate (25fps) with key frames every 50 frames and, while they're not absolutely perfect, they are very acceptible. One is 5.5 minutes and is 15Mb long, the other is 1 minute long and is 2.8Mb. They'll play over a 512kbps connection so long as the .Mac servers are behaving themselves (they're rather slow at times). H.264 /does/ take a long time to encode the video though - my five minute movie took about 35 minutes to encode on a dual 2.3GHz G5 directly from Final Cut Express.
You could also try the MP4 and Sorenson 3 codecs but you're not going to get anything like the same quality at the same data rates (at least not with what comes as standard with QT).
It all seems to be something of a black art doesn't it? I started doing this only a few weeks ago. At first I fiddled around more or less at random before approaching it more sensibly using short clips and changing one thing at a time. Eventually, I arrived at settings which satisfied me.
Best of luck!

  • What are the settings for apn data and mms for iphone 4 on straight talk?

    what are the settings for cellular data network APN DATA and MMS for Straighttalk sims on IPhone 4?I cant send or recieve pictures.My service keeps losin signal constantly saying no service then 1 bar,2 bars,3 bars...then back down to no service.It drops calls.Iv been trying to find out the answer to this problem for 2 weeks!I have no Profile selection in my settings either to do wat its showing online on one website.and have entered numerous diffrent APNs and none have worked!!!!PLEASE HELP!!!

    They're asking a question about carrier settings for their iPhone. I think that has everything to do with Apple.
    Maybe they did already ask Straight Talk. I've called Straight Talk before... they're not too helpful.
    You know, this forum would be much friendlier if people in this forum would quit squabbling, & posting comedic replies, not too mention name calling (like I did), when people are just needing some help.
    It's also frustrating that people stick up for the guy who doesn't help, but rather takes the time to post some smart alec reply. Granted, I shouldn't have name-called... some people just frustrate me when they act like that.
    Admittedly, there ARE some grey areas when it comes to carrier questions... but let the moderators do their job when someone is asking innappropriate stuff. And if the mods aren't chiming in, then that's a good indication that what the thread is about IS in fact Apple related.

    What are the settings for automatic service PO?

    Hello,
    I would like to know if it is possible to automatically create the PR for services. It would be similar to MD04 but instead of being for stockable materials, it would be done for non-stockable materials (services in this case).
    PR would be generated monthly, because this services have to be paid every month, for example electricity, water, rent, phone bills.
    I hope you can help me, thank you!

  • When I sync ical on iphone with mac, every entry is multiplied.  What are the settings for syncing without repeats?

    When I sync ical on iphone with mac, every entry is multiplied.  What are the settings for syncing without repeats?

    If your wireless environment is less than ideal, as it is in most inhabited areas, the influence of other wireless networks and devices competing for the same very small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum will affect your network's performance. Your own wireless network is a microcosm of that environment.
    To mitigate the effects of competing wireless networks, use 5 GHz to the maximum practicable extent. It is comparatively free from interference contributed by other wireless devices and is likely to remain that way for some time. However, it is less tolerant of intervening obstructions and construction materials than the 2.4 GHz spectrum, so it's not a panacea. Every installation is different so you must experiment to determine the optimum configuration.
    Place your wireless router (what kind is it?) in a central location, convenient to all the devices that require it. Most of the time a utility or ISP will locate it in some remote corner next to the utility service entrance. That is almost always the worst possible location.
    Others find that only a direct wired Ethernet connection between router and devices will maintain uninterrupted access to Airplay.
    That is almost certain to result in the best possible AirPlay performance. Short of having everything hard wired (it's not an option for the iPad for example) use an Ethernet connection for all the devices that lend themselves to that method. Your AppleTV is certainly one of them, since its location is not likely to change very often. Your AirPort Express should be another, since your audio systems are likely to stay put as well. Connect them both to your existing router, either directly or through an inexpensive Ethernet switch. Your problems are likely to be solved with just those two connections.

  • My ICloud isn't talking to both my MacBookPro and IPhone. What are the settings for the Mac

    My ICloud isn't talking to both my MacBookPro and IPhone. What are the settings for the Mac and any suggestions?

    In the AirPort Utility, I selected the Advanced tab, and then selected Port Mapping.
    Q: What service do I choose from the drop-down menu? Also, where do I enter the two ports you mentioned? Public UDP Port(s)? Public TCP Port(s)? Private IP Address: Private UDPPort Private TCP Port?
    still confused, I guess. Thanks!

  • What are the settings for Primere Elements 9 if I've filmed with a Canon Powershot sx50 HS?

    I just got this camera and I want the best quality possible. Unfortunately, it's hard for me to fully know if the settings I try create that. I get a fuzz or noise on objects like if I'm wearing a black jacket it's like static. When I put the video on my phone which is an Android Galaxy s4 it converts it into mp4 format and I get much more clear results than on my computer which perplexes me. I did a lot of trial and error with my previous camera (JVC Full HD Everio) which I got the same results. My newer Canon should be leagues ahead of the JVC, but I really can't tell as of yet. If anyone could help that would be awsome. I have examples of my trials and errors from my Youtube videos which you can see I felt I was slowly making progress with the JVC Oppositeofhood - YouTube

    Then I saw your latest post
    Wait, I think I just found it. I pressed record on different settings to take pictures with like portrait to see if it would make a difference and when I uploaded them to my computer I found where it shows the BIt rate and it varied. They run at 23 frames per second 1920 x 1080 MOV video files and all the Bit rates are like 36,356 35,414 ,36,521
    If your camera is recording with a variable bitrate, the Bitrate variations from file to file should not be contributing to the issue. But it does raise the issue related to whether or
    not we are setting the appropriate bitrate level in the export settings. What are the units for 36,356, 35,414, and 36,517 -
    kbps (also can be written Kbps) and is kilobits per second
    or
    Mbps which is megabits per second.
    Let us try this for one of your 1920 x 1080p24 videos.
    Go through the following workflow
    Manually set project preset...
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR 1080p24
    When you go to export your edited Timeline content, then use
    Share
    Computer
    QuickTime
    with Presets = NTSC DV 16:9 - that is going to be customized to 1080p24 (H.264.mov) under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset
    The essential settings under the Advanced Button/Video Tab
    Video Codec = H.264
    Frame Width = 1920
    Frame Height = 1080
    Frame Rate = 23.976
    Field Type = Progressive
    Aspect = Square Pixels (1.0)
    Now here is where we are going to experiment....
    Bitrate
    Check Mark next to Limit Data Rate to and type in 36000 before kbps
    note the file size of the export as well as the quality of the playback.
    Repeat the whole process but in export
    Remove the check mark next to Limit Data Rate. The Bitrate field will be disabled.
    note the file size of the export as well as the quality of the playback.
    We will be watching for your results.
    Thanks.
