Q: FXPX share to USB drive
I shoot a graduation video for a school and in the past provided DVD's. I want to offer USB flash drives this year so the families can plug the drive to their TV, bring with them when visiting friends and also download the file to their computer or backup hard-drive. It will also provide them an HD file. The program runs over an hour. I'm assuming I'll use the share option in FCPX and compress for MP4-H264.
A vendor told me their drives have a average 15MB download and other vendors may not. He mentioned that USB flash drives vary greatly in quality. Any truth to the matter?
Do I need to use Compressor to "customize the settings?
Should I customize these setting in compressor?
Based upon the estimates file size (below) my MPEG 4, 1 hour piece would be less then 200MB? that does;t seem right.
Thanks for the help.
