Compressor 4.2 is making files 4x as large as Compressor 3
Hey All,
I'm outputting a simple talking head clip that's 2 minutes long, and I am completely at a loss as to why the difference.
Original file is H264, cut in FCPX.
I've tried outputting both a Master File, and the Send to Compressor option, and both give me a 74MB file. Using a Master File in Compressor 3 gives me a 17MB file.
Any help would be appreciated.
Compressor 3 Settings
960x540
H264
Quality: halfway between Med. and High
Optimized for Streaming
Key, Frame, and Data: Automatic
Encoding: Best
Audio: AAC, Mono, 44.1, Normal, 96Kbps
Compressor 4.2 Settings
960x540
QT Movie
H264
Pixel, Frame, Date Rate: Automatic
H.264 Profile: Main
Entropy Mode: CABAC (same file size when using CAVLC)
Resize Filter: Better (same file size when using fast)
Retiming Quality: Fast
Audio: AAC, Mono, 44.1, Normal, 96Kbps
NOTES
1) I can't find an option for Optimize for Streaming
2) I tried Web Publishing for Data Rate, but file size was even larger
Thanks in advance.
