hinted streaming, fast start and fast start compressed header
Hi,
I am trying to export a movie trailer from FCP through Compressor for use on a website hosted by Wordpress. I am using h.264 and am trying to decide whether it is optimal to use hinted streaming, fast start or fast start compressed header. I found this discussion stream:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10451326
which was helpful, but stated explicitly to not use fast start compressed header. Can someone explain why not? I am also interested in a more in depth explanation of how/when you would choose each of these options.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Becky
