Mike, the Apple TV 720 or 480 settings in export in Adobe Premiere works great, it does one version that almost everyone can play, when I upload it to my vimeo account (see my signature), it also automatically populated to youtube and facebook so people on both can see it. If you want to create free video podcast to be part of itunes, you can upload it onto mevio.com and set it up with Itunes (it's currently the best server for videos larger than 100meg). However, you may have to 'make the mp4 clip' smaller sized, instead of using the 720 settings, use the 480 settings.
I'm surprised that firefox doesn't play, when I post it on vimeo or youtube, it plays on all my browsers plus on my ipads and tablets. (also if you are using embedded video, vimeo iframe works with videos embedding to your own website)... Lastly if you want to export for tv viewing, the h.264 blu-ray settings is all you need now aways (most tv stations will take that, or even the apple tv 720 settings) Johnny Wu 216.539.4634 Producer/Director/Editor/Wire-Stunt www.mdifilm.com More reels at www.vimeo.com/mdifilm Current Project: www.FaceBook.com/S4Superman Principal Brand Strategist Sampson / Carnegie Serious Brand Strategies www.Smarterthinking.com President OCA-Cleveland Chapter "Embracing the Hopes and Aspirations of Asian Pacific Americans" OCA Image TV Magazine on TV20 & iTunes www.ocagc.org Co-Chair Executive Committee Cleveland Asian Festival www.ClevelandAsianFestival.org Administrator Cleveland IndieClub www.clevelandindieclub.com WVIZ/IdeaStream Community Advisory Board St. Clair Superior Development Board Member International Community Council Board Member -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike Boom Sent: Friday, October 14, 2011 12:46 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AP] Correct aspect ratio in Quicktime player? Thanks all for the info about aspect ratios and Quicktime. I've learned quite a bit. The main reason I'm hassling with this at all is that I'm old-fashioned and host my own video web site. I want to use mp4 files so that people on Apple devices can see my videos, hence my attempt at fiddling with encoding. I like to be able to control the quality of the video I present, and I'm able to create 1080p files for people to view on their computer monitors. A hosted service is obviously a much more convenient way to put out videos. Johnny's able to hand over a video file to Apple TV and they convert it to a format that works flawlessly with Quicktime viewers. YouTube and Vimeo do much the same thing (although I notice that Vimeo files can't play back in more recent versions of Firefox). Ah, codecs, players, and browsers. They're not easy to get to play together well, and they're fine proof of this old maxim: The great thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from.
