Creating MPEG-4 Output Files
If you want to customize your MPEG-4 Part 2 file format settings, you need to perform a
more detailed transcoding workflow than the one described above, that involves the
following steps:
Step 1:
Customize MPEG-4 video settings
1
In the Inspector window, click the Encoder pane and choose MPEG-4 from the File
Format pop-up menu.
The MPEG-4 Encoder pane opens, displaying mp4 in the File Extension field, and the
default Video pane.
2
Adjust the MPEG-4 video settings using the available controls.
Note: Make sure the Video Enabled checkbox is selected.
See “
” on page 155 for details about MPEG-4 Part 2 video settings.
If you don’t want to edit any other attributes, your MPEG-4 setting can be assigned to
any source media file in the usual way. See “
Preparing Compressor for Transcoding
page 28 for more information. Otherwise, go to the next step to edit MPEG-4 audio
settings.
Either enter a number in the
Bit Rate field or use the slider
to set the bit rate.
