Apple Compressor 3 - Manual (Page 95)

• Duplicate Selected Setting: Click to duplicate a selected setting in the Settings tab. The
Duplicate button copies the exact settings of the setting currently selected in the
Settings tab. Using the Duplicate button allows you to create a new setting from a
preexisting one; you can then adjust that setting according to your needs, rather than
creating a new setting from scratch.
• Create a New Setting (+): Click to add a new setting to the Settings tab. A dialog appears
for you to choose an output file format (H.264 for Apple Devices, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and
so on) when you click this button.
• Delete Selected Settings (-): Click to remove a setting from the Settings tab. You are not
asked for a confirmation, so be sure you want to remove the setting before clicking
this button.
Note: You cannot delete the Apple settings.
Settings List
When you first open the Settings tab it contains a set of preexisting (Apple) settings
