Hi there, what is the best video compressing to use in resolume 2.2

the best in quality/stability

You get the best and most stabil results by rendering a avi with the Indeo 5.1 or MJPEG Codec / Disable Audio / Keyframe every 1 frame / Quality 100% / Res 400x300

Cheers

I'm using, in my laptop, CANOPUS PRO CODER to encode normal AVI files to Indeo 5.1 but everytime that i put more than a file to convert (batch) the program crash.

In my desktower with the pro coder the encoder Indeo 5.1 don't apear at all, i need to instal anything?

What are the best software to compress a lot of files at the same time (batch)???

thanks, and sory for the stupid questions

VirtualDubMod (or VirtualDub) both have a batch conversion system.

Go to virtualdub.org, you can download it for free there.

After Effects and Premier are a powerful combo if you can get them too.

I have After Effects and it exports as AVI fine, what would be the benefit of having both Premier and AE?

They can do a lot of the same things but they are fundamentally for different purposes.

Premier is for editing, although it can apply effects etc. You would make (edit together) a movie in Premier and it has broader export options. You can capture video in Premier, not as far as I know in After effects, athough I've never tried it's just how i work.

After Effects is for intended for applying effects to video a bit like photoshop, although you can edit to a degree with it. Traditionally this is for stuff like titling. You might then put these effected clips back into a Premier project.

For the VJ who isn't necessarily making long edited movies, AfterEffects is the first choice since it can do most things you'd need.

If you make video in a broader context than just VJ loops, then like I said AE and Premier definitely are a good combo.

Flash and AE are another good combo.

BTW can you capture in AE anyone?
