Re: [Flashcoders] MPG1 video compression: Best settings? CD playback?

It depends on what you term as a good quality. What's the dimensions, how will it be played (Quicktime, Windows Media)? For CD use, just keep your data rate low enough so that the CD isn't going to choke trying to play the file.

Windows media... actually, this is for a director project. I chose MPG1 because I read that a high number of Mac and PC users already have decompresser installed for the video codec. For CD use, just keep your data rate low enough so that the CD isn't going to choke trying to play the file. Yep, sounds good... I guess I just get a bit confused when it comes to Variable bit rates... you know, like what I should set for target bit rate, min and max bitrates... all the settings that come with the encoder are a bit daunting. I have been told 700kbs is a good bitrate for CD. Thanks for help.
