Solution for APE 3.0's large h.264 files! Quicktime Pro Needed!
So, I've been editing footage from my XHA1 on Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0.
Here's the problem. A 1 min 30 sec clip, compressed to h.264, comes out to 450+ mbs!!! Now, I don't know if that's normal, but it's very high for me. The solution: Step 1: Open the 720p or 1080i video with Quicktime Pro http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression1.jpg Step 2: File>Export http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression2.jpg Step 3: Change export setting to Movie to QuickTime Movie and Click Options http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression3.jpg Step 4: Click Video settings http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression4.jpg Step 5: Set the Compression Type to H.264 Set you Quality to Medium or High Set "Optimized for:" to "Download" Click OK http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression5.jpg Step 6: Go to Sound Settings http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression6.jpg Step 7: Format to AAC Click OK http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression7.jpg Step 8: Press Ok and start the export http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression8.jpg Comparison: Size http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression9.jpg Quality http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...pression10.jpg Hope this helps!

In this step: http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...mpression5.jpg
You leave the data rate set to automatic. I'm not high on that idea since I don't know what any transcoder will do with that. You're better off specifying both the data rate and whether you want constant or variable bit rate. You might be able to tweak other settings to get the size where you want it, but bit rate is always the key parameter. |
