Video Codecs

I am very confused, I have Video Studio Plus 10 and filmed a sequence that was saved in AVI in an MPEG 4 container. Is there a way to produce a movie not in WMA format? Either I am missing something within the software or I am doing something wrong. Thanks.

P.S. My object is to have the best quality for Google Video and You Tube.

Yes. You can save in various formats.

I don't have Video Studio on this computer, so I won't try to give you step-by-step instructions... Click on the Share tab, and you can choose Save As to save in the format of your choice.

I can't help you with the best format to upload, but I can tell you that the "best" online quality will not be anywhere near "DVD" or "TV" quality.

Thanks, I will look at that, but I don't remember if AVI was available or MPEG4.

I notice there is only PAL codec, is there the USA version there also?

My screen shots only show PAL because I am in the UK and have my VideoStudio set to PAL by default (During installation) if you are in the U.S.A. or Japan or one of the other NTSC Regions you will have NTSC templates in the list by default.

If you deal with both formats then you can simply create new templates accordingly.

Thank you so much, I am glad that you answered so quickly as I was going to pull the remaining hair out of my head. So frustrating to work so hard and have You Tube destroy the video with there compression. And WMV is horrible. Thanks again.
