I have a Canon EOS with a bunch of videos of my children are 1920 x 1080p.
I edit the videos and compilation with Corel VideoStudio Pro, exporting as Blu-Ray H.264 1920 x 1080p, creating a .m2t file on disk that is 1.8 Gb in size.
Now, I'd like to compress the file (12 minutes long) to play on DVD, but have at least Blu-Ray movie like quality.
The two DVD players are both going to a 65" 1920 x 1080 LCD.
:
-Panasonic Blu-Ray
-PC with VLC
I would also like to upload it to Facebook so our Grandparents can see the kids, we live a long way from all of them. Maybe the recommendations for settings here would be different than for the Panasonic Blu-Ray player and PC with VLC.
If the encoding/compression of the 12 minute file takes 8 hours, I am okay with that.
What settings would you recommend?
Presets:
-Devices Ignore?
Regular:
-High Profile (I assume I should select this)
Filters:
-Detelecine
-Decomb
-Denoise
-Deblock
-Grayscale
Video:
-Video Codec I assume H.264?
-Frame Rate I assume Same as Source?
-Constant or Variable Framerate?
-- Quality RF setting (I think a lower number means better quality video, however people set it way up at 23 for 1920x1080p from some posts on the board, your suggestion?)
-- Avg Bitrate I'm clueless here, it looks like when I open the file that the bitrate of the source may be 200,000 kbps (is there a program that can read the setting from the video source file?)
--- 2-Pass Encoding I figure yes?
-Optimize Video:
-use advanced Tab instead
