Convert Your Digital QuickTime Movies to WMV or AVI
Note: The settings you select here will be applied to all the movies you
have listed for conversion, no matter what their initial size or other properties.
Video Dimension
With Digital Media Converter you can either convert your video to QuickTime files
with the same dimensions, or to new dimensions you select. To save the video
in its original dimensions select Keep source file dimensions. To change
the dimensions select Change dimensions, then choose one of the standard
formats or specify custom dimensions.
- By default your converted file is saved in original dimensions.
- To use different dimensions, select from the Video Dimensions drop-down list.
- To specify custom dimensions for your video, select Custom from the Video
Dimensions list. You can specify the width and height of the converted
video. If you want to alter the aspect ratio of the video clear Lock Aspect
Ratio.
- It is not a good idea to convert video to larger image size. For example,
if the file imported into your timeline originally had 320 x 240 dimensions, you
should not save it to 640 x 480 pixels. The resulting video might be distorted
or "blocky" looking. Reducing video dimensions can also result in unacceptable
conversions, especially if there is a lot of detail in the picture.
Video Compressor
Select a video compressor from the ones available. The size and the quality
of the QuickTime movie depends largely on the video compressor. By default
the Sorenson Video 3 compressor will be applied.
Quality
Select the Quality of the video. The size of the QuickTime movie increases
with higher quality.
Frame Rate
The Frame Rate of the video is the number of frames the movie will display
per second. High motion videos require high frame rates. The higher the frame rate, the larger the file size of the converted
movie. You have two choices:
- Keep source file frame rate: This option is checked by default.
- Change Frame Rate: To customize the frame rate check Change Frame Rate
option and move the slider to get the desired frame rate.
Audio Compressor
Select the audio compressor used to compress the audio in the movie. A better
compressor will generally produce high quality audio and keep the size to a minimum.
By default the 24-bit Integer compressor will be applied.
Audio Frequency
Audio Frequency is the number of audio samples to be played per second. Higher
frequency values gives better sound quality but also increases the size of the audio.
Use higher quality for music and lower quality for speech.
Audio Bit Size
Audio Bit Size is the size of one sample of audio. Select the bit size depending
on the audio quality you want.
Audio Type
Select the number of channels of audio: Mono or Stereo.
Click on OK to save the settings.
