BEST WAY TO CONVERT MOV FILES TO MP4 PRO

I also tried using Mpeg Streamclip to convert the files to a AVI with a divx compression.

BEST WAY TO CONVERT MOV FILES TO MP4 PRO

I'm not sure which Premiere Pro version he has, nor do I know which formats it accepts as a result. So, I'm trying to convert them for my actress' editor (who requested them in AVI) because he uses Adobe Premiere Pro on a Windows Platform.

And I'm sorry I didn't answer your post in full my last response. Frankly I am still at a loss as to why you want to create non-QT (AVI) files here.

BEST WAY TO CONVERT MOV FILES TO MP4 ARCHIVE

I you want original quality, why don't you simply archive the original files and use them for playback. All lose quality as the data rate is decreased. (But this is a work flow I rarely use and then only for SD content for my sister.)Īs to the MPEG Streamclip conversion, what compression formats did you use and at what data rates? Some compression formats are much more efficient than others. If you must have an AVI file container, then I would probably use an XviD or DivX audio/video compression combination. If to be an TV compatible file, I would again use H.264/AAC (or H.264/AC3) with video data rate restricted to about 4.5 mbps. If creating computer playback file for QT, I would probably try H.264/AAC multi-pass compression with unrestricted video data rate in an MOV, MP4, or M4V container depending player application and compression work flows available to you. This would be edit-compatible with any QT, iMovie, and/or Final Cut. If you plan to do any editing, I would recommend conversion to AIC/AIFF (Big Indian Integer is fine) in an MOV file container.

You still haven't said what you want to use the files for. I actually just tried MPEG Streamclip and it came out grainier than the original MOV file

I just want it to remain at the same picture and sound quality. I don't really mind what the compression rates for the AVI output file is. Okay, I'm just reading straight off the info.Ĭodecs: XDCAM EX 720p24 (35 Mb/s VBR). Basically, you need to tell us more about what you want to use the AVI for. And, if I had to create an AVI file, I would probably use Visual Hub, MPEG Streamclip, HandBrake, or Toast, depending on which compression format I wanted to target, at what dimensions, and for what end use. Normally I would not use AVI at all since official support for this file container was dropped more than a decade ago. avi?ĭepends on what you mean by 'best' and what you mean 'AVI' here. So the first step here is to determine what compression formats are in your MOV file, determine what compression formats you want in the output file, and then decide which application provides the best work flow for you between the two. An AVI file is an AVI file container containing compatible audio and video compressed data. MOV files are MOV file containers containing any valid, QT plug-in compatible audio and video compression combination. The video is coming out the same quality and is working fine but the audio is totally out of sync from the beginning, even though the clips are about 30sec long each.
