Re: [videoblogging] Re: DV to iPod (320x240) dilemna

2006-01-20 Thread Christopher Ivanyi
I've tried this one a number of times, but it just does not compare in
sharpness, and size to the auto export to iPod (320x240).

But this may all be mute, if in fact that 7.0.4 does not do a
multi-pass.  I have not tried it yet, but I have a sneaky feeling that
the quality will drop with the single pass.  Which means getting back
to 7.0.3 somehow.

Thanks Steve, you always come through...

Chris

ps I have yet to try iSquint, or Divx for that matter.

 Export to mpeg4
 Video type: H264
 bitrate: about 700kbits/sec
 frame rate same as source
 Key frame: dunno, experiment
 press 'video options' button:
 Untick Main, tick Baseline
 Choose Best quality or Faster Encode (see below)*

 Audio:
 AAC-LC (Music)
 128 kbps
 rest of audio settings probably dont matter much


 *Apple made some ipod export changes with qt7.0.4 compared to 7.0.3.
 Based on encoding times, I believe QT7.0.3 ipod export used multi-pass
 mode (so better quality) but Apple were getting stick for how slow the
 export was, so in QT7.0.4 theyve changed it to Single-Pass to stop
 encoding times being too depressing. Take your pick.

 Hoe that helps a little, if you are on a Mac then consider trying
 alternative encoders like iSquint to see if you prefer the quality, if
 you are on Windows there are other options too.

  Question:  Had anyone had any luck replicating the sharpness, and
 file size of the export
  to iPod 320x240 function, but by doing it manually?
 
  I have found the quality, and file size of export to iPod
 (320x240) to be very appealing,
  with one exception, the stretch factor.  Why does Apple not take
 into consideration the
  rectangular pixels of the 720x480 format, and make them square to a
 true 320x240 size,
  not 320x213?
 
  Because every time I have tried a manual compression from DV to
 320x240, the image is
  just not as sharp, and the file sizes are larger than the standard
 export to iPod 320-x240.
  And I have tried a variety of compressions.
 
  I have tried making a self-contained 720x480 DV NTSC movie into a
 640x480 DV NTSC
  movie.   Then, I have done a variety of manual compressions, m4v,
 mp4, mov, with Video,
  or Sorenson 3, or MPEG$ settings.  (The h.264 is definitely the best
 in quality and size).
  But again, none of the manual compression schemes come up to the
 quality of the
  automatic export to iPod (320x240)
 
  I have also tried going directly to 320 x 240 DV NTSC from 720x480,
 and worked a variety
  of manual compressions, but to no avail.
 
  I am curious to know if others have had similar experiences.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: iPod test

2005-11-30 Thread Christopher Ivanyi



Hey Steve:

Thanks so much for all of your great information.
The movie that I asked about was another re-encoded 
movie I made following Michael's suggestion, and yours too.
I exported it as an .mp4, utilizing H.264 codec, and AAC --
set to Baseline. So I am perplexed as to why it's not 
playing on the iPod. I downloaded it from the URL where I loaded 
it, into iTunes and played it back in iTunes, no problem
both on a PC and a Mac. So it's really wierd.
I will have to try again, and maybe fork out the bucks to get
my own iPod. Again, thanks so much!!!

PS. When you earlier mentioned being able to see my movie on your iPod
that was a different file. That one was using the movie to iPod (320x240).
You simply changed the extension to .mp4,

And it played on your iPod right? If so maybe I'll continue to use that automatic approach.

ciao

On 11/29/05, Steve Watkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
No I could not get that one to work, it wouldnt copy to the ipod. Icannot analyse the file to work out why, perhaps it is not baseline,
but I have no software that can tell me whether it is baseline or mainprofile.Also in an email to me recently, you asked this:Hey Steve:What you are saying to me is that yousimply changed the extension from .mov to .mp4 and it
worked on the iPod?Because I made a DVNTSC 640x480movie from the original DV movie.I then exported itMovie to iPod (320x240), and changed the extensionfrom .m4v to .mov. I did not do the export to .mp4,
selecting the baseline thing that Michael described.So I'm confused.Im sorry all this stuff is confusing, I will try to make sense but Imay fail ;)When you use the 'movie to ipod' option in quicktime, it creates a mp4
file that is the right sort of h264 mpeg4 to work on the ipod. ButApple decided that rather than call it a .mp4, they will use .m4vinstead, which is confusing. So some people prefer to rename the fileback to .mp4, and it will still work.
If you do a manual export to .mp4, selecting baseline, it is creatingthe same kind of file, it just doesnt automatically resize the footagelike the 'movie to ipod' export does, and it does not use the silly
extension .m4vYou cannot rename files created with either of the above methods to.mov because they are not .movs.You cannot make ipod compatible h264 .mov's by just using the normal'export to quicktime' option and selecting h264 as the video codec,
because this does not create baseline stuff, and so is not ipodcompatible.If you want to create a .mov that works on the ipod, you have 2options. You may avoid h264 altogether and use the older kind of mpeg4
(or 3ivx), many peopl edo this as it ensures that the video clips willplay back on computers that dont have quicktime 7.If you want a .mov that is h264 and is ipod compatible, you have toexport to a .mp4 file of the right sort (baseline) and then reload
that mp4 into quicktime, and save it as a self-contained movie.Well I hope that maes some sense, Im a bit tired at the moment so Imay have made a mistake somewhere.Steve of Elbows--- In

Re: [videoblogging] Blogger templates SPECIFIALLY for bloggers

Problem with using mefeedia's archive code is that it does not consistently show thumbnails for all videos. Why do some vlogs don't have pics, and others do not. That's been an ongoing problem for a long, long time.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Initial iPod Compatibility Tests

2005-11-28 Thread Christopher Ivanyi
Hey Steve:  What you are saying to me is that you simply changed the
extension from .mov to .mp4 and it worked on the iPod?  I'm confused. 
 Because I did not do the export to .mp4, selecting the baseline
thing that Michael described.  Rather, I made a DVNTSC 640x480 movie
from the original DV movie.  I then exported it Movie to iPod
(320x240), and simply changed the extension from .m4v to .mov.  It
should have that main profile.  But since you say it plays on your
iPod,   I'll go ahead and change the extension to .mp4 and upload the
video to the server again.

Thanks for you help.

On 11/27/05, Steve Watkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 m4v files are mp4 files, not movs. So it is fine to rename a m4v file
 to end in .mp4 instead, but dont rename it to .mov

 If I rename it to .mp4 then it works on the ipod.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: top feedburner vlogs.. steve garfield gets bumped by the boob

2005-10-31 Thread Christopher Ivanyi



the beauty ofvideoblogging is that it doesnt HAVE to matter - Steve said

I agree that it doesn't HAVE to matter, but, speaking personally, I feel that great pangs when my qualitative audience diminishes, and exhiliration whenitincreases. I have in the past easily been able to ignore the numbers. But honestly, I could never ever put up a video, if I knew no onewould watch it-- that would be an excercise in futility? And I truly believe that almost everyone would want to have as large an audience as possible,I know I would. And yes, I've been thinking ofdifferent ways on how to achieve that, and trying to figure out the success of other folks out there-- the proverbial grass is always greener on the other side. And for my two cents, it's not about:To Be Themed, or Not To Be Themed, it's about having compelling characters,coupled with compelling stories, period.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: new URLs @ ourmedia Not Working either

Oops. Correction: When you go to Ourmedia, sign in, your page (left

which will offer URL.
Click on that, or just rt click to copy the URL address to your

You could import the MP3 into QT and export them as a WAV or AIF 48khz
-- no compression -- should be okay to import them into FCPro at that
point.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Mac Switch Question!

2005-07-19 Thread Christopher Ivanyi




I thought I weigh in too, Ryan, I personally use the compression
setting suggested by http://freevlog.org/#compress -- you can adjust
the frame size, and even frame rate to your needs. I have gone with
12 fps, and it works fine. Before these tutorial guidelines came
along I would compress with the older Video, or Sorenson 3 codecs --
they work fine too. Nice thing is one can experiment with a variety
of settings and compare them side by side.

I've not tried the H.264 codec tho'.

By the way, when you get the video camera hooked up to iMovie -- you
are going to be in heaven!

I love my mac too, but I may have to get a new one soon.

  For very good quality and pretty big file sizes use the Compress
  movie for CD-ROM. This gets saved as a generic .MOV file.
 
 This is helpful. Like I said, I compress the hell out of my movies for the
 web (and my friends with slower connections), going Sorensen 3 at Low,
 scaling down to 240x180, 64 bits for audio, etc. I was just looking for
 how to get MOV files that were closest to the original MOV files that my
 camera made natively -- 320x240, 30fps, etc. I'll try the CD-ROM setting.
 This is probably too big for the web in my case, but good for archiving to
 CD (or now, DVD -- yay!).
 
 Question: Should I be using Sorensen 3? Or is MPEG-4 better for
 cross-platform availability (though wrapping it in a MOV file kind of kills
 that)? Or H.263? So many choices... the blessings and bane of
 videoblogging.
 
  H.264 video's look great if the original video is excellent quality
  and you dont mind the time it takes to export (forever on a G3 iMac
  500Mhz!!!).
 
 And if you don't mind people not being able to see them (but they can hear
 them just fine!). I'm sure H.264 will rule the world, someday, but I'm not
 ready for it. It's too much codec for an amateur like me!
 
  PS. iMovie doesnt do Text very clearly so if you are gonna use text
  in a movie you should import as a picture from Photoshop or something
  like that.
 
 That's what I've been doing. QuickTime's text tracks are quite powerful
 for meta uses (I.e. captioning), but for just plain looking good, they
 leave a lot to be desired. My problem is, I have Photoshop for the PC but
 not the Mac. So I might have to start using iMovie's title features until
 I figure out Adobe's cross upgrade thing (if it even exists anymore).
 
 Michael Verdi wrote:

 I did! It advocated H.264 or MPEG-4, going down to 15fps and 600bits. I
 was trying to replicate my source MOV file settings, though. And here's
 something weird -- I did videos out of iMovie at 15fps and 30fps and found
 little different in the final file size... so my vlog entries are now
 30fps, but still scaled down to 240x180.
 
 I love my Mac. My wife wants a Mini now. And I think she's going to get
 one.
