Premiere CS4 settings for vimeo at DVinfo.net

Hi guys!

I've done some tests and uploaded some footage to viemo, but the quality is not as good as those ones I see from other 5D owners.

My settings are:
- h264 (mp4 file)
- 640x360 pixels
- vbr-2 passess 2500bps 7000bps (max)
- key frame 30

The file reproduced in QuickTime is fine, but in Vimeo I see lots of compression artifacts.

How do you encode your files to upload to vimeo?

Thanks.

Tomeu

You can try an adobe media encoder/AME preset like Youtube HD, something like 1280x720, 5mbits or higher for video, for decent quality from the 5D with Vimeo.

Any reason you're not uploading a 720p source? Remember, they're going to re-encode your footage ANOTHER time, so you want to give something something major to chew on, heh.

BTW, have you tried Exposure Room, I think it's WAY BETTER. Video streaming always seems to stutter for me despite my massive bandwidth. ER rocks!

I didn't know they would re-encode my footage. I'll try with higer quality (720p).

Thanks.

Tomeu.
