Exporting AVCHD*****
Hi,
I've recently finished a project shot in AVCHD. My export settings are:
Quicktime Conversion -> MP4 -> H.264 codec -> 1280x720, 5000 kbits/sec, Current Frame Rate, and Automatic Key Frames.
Although after trying a few second test run, it provided great results but the compression time is very long. For a few seconds it took about 5-10 minutes. (2.6ghz, 4gb RAM)
Does anyone know of a better way to export?? Or is this just the case when working with AVCHD footage??
P.S. I know that if I basically lower the numbers for the settings, it will provide a smaller file (which will take less time to finish), but I do not want to do that.
Thank you!
