My original video is NTSC 740X480. The desired end product is a viewable piece for the web that will not follow this aspect ratio. The end format will be 320X240 (no surprise). If I change the rendering format to even 640X480, the render file size grew by an order of magitude! The target format is 320X240, but the size of the render video is twice that of the original 720X480. This was a surprise.
Can someone please explain why and if there is a work-around. An objective here is to reduce file size, natuarlly and I am not going to use the raw AVI file for the net, but if I am starting from a raw AVI that is growing as the format size decreases, the compressed file that I actually use will also be larger which I am trying to shrink adn remove the side bars as a result in changing the apsect ratio.
Thanks in advance for reply comments!!
