Good evening,

Not being totally decided on my video hosting choice, I leave it to you. Below are the same video, one in QuickTime format, and the other the same QuickTime file uploaded to Vimeo. Actually, I should really upload another higher quality video to Vimeo to let it work with the highest quality possible (within my 500MB weekly limit, of course). Unfortunately, I don’t have access to my video editing software right now. I’m holding out for Final Cut Express 5 which should hopefully be released any day now!!!

Actually, looking at the recommended settings for Vimeo, the video file wasn’t created in the optimal settings. Vimeo likes 30fps, but it is 29.97fps (the NTSC standard). I also don’t have the keyframes set in their preferred method, and the bit rate is half of what they recommend for an SD source video.

What do you think?
