Yet another question. Exporting video.

Yes, another question.
Anyone know what I should use to export video? Keeping file size to a minimum, but keeping quality? Well, hoping to be able to make out the video, so yeah

Using Premiere, of course.

Oh, unless this is an answer the Guide can provide! *runs off*

(Sorry for the continuous posts.)

use xvid. Dont do cbr (1 pass). Do 2 passes. This method is best used in Virtual DUB (because of filters), so you MIGHT want to export using HuffyUV (huge file, 100% quality), then run the huffyUV file thru Virtual dub 1.5.1 using the following method.

The first step is to set XVID to "2 pass: 1st pass." This creates a "video.stats" file which you will use to make your actual file, SO DONT DELETE IT UNTIL YOU FINISH THE SECOND STEP. Make sure that you set all of your filters (if using virtual dub) and audio compression (lame mp3 recommended) as if you were making the real thing. click file/save as avi (this can take an hour or longer depending on your computer)

The second step is to set XVID to "2 pass: 2nd pass Int." Now tell the computer how big you want your file to be (If you select 151,000 then your file will be approx 170 megs [4 episodes on one 700~ meg cd])

click file/save as avi, and select the name you want for your file!

NOTE: Although I have never encountered problems with xvid in adobe premiere 6.0, It says in EADFAG not to use divx (or any divx variant) clips
for your amvs. If you ever have problems using xvid clips to make your amv, then try converting the xvid clip to huffyUV or something else. 8)

Another good reason to use Vdub is the ability to compress your audio in MP3 to save humonguos amounts of space (IE: 43.5mb in comparison to 15mb)
