ok... I used the Sanyo Xacti HD1A. The source video was 1280X720, 30 fps mp4 video. I edited in FCE, then chose export using quicktime compression, and did this:
- under format, chose mpeg-4 and clicked options - chose mp4 under file format - chose h.264 under video format - did the 640x480 image size (chose custom) - clicked the preserve aspect ratio using letterbox checkbox My ultimate goal is to get the video onto my blog and my iphone. Am I doing this right? David King davidleeking.com - blog davidleeking.com/etc - videoblog On Wed, Jul 9, 2008 at 1:27 PM, Brook Hinton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > 640x360 IS 16:9.
