Brian Bleech Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I have an uncompressed avi file and want to compress it a bit, but haven't a clue what to use. Any ideas? Obviously want to keep it pretty good quality and stuff. Ta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I use quicktime file format, and the h.124 codec, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Tea Why Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Virtualdub is probably a good bet, its free aswell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that NBR dude Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I tend to compress my stuff in H.264 (i think ) and that retains pretty decent quality. One program I used recently was Microsoft Expression. Its a free tool for converting / compressing video files and was actually genuinely impressed with it for a Microsoft product. Converted a 1080p .MOV file (was just over 500mb) into .WMV and was reduced to around 100mb and still had pretty decent quality. Another older tool Jonny Jones and I used to use was a program called TMPEG, which again is free. It takes a while to get all the settings to an acceptable standard (however you can find plenty of free templates on the internet). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
