First, I have VP10e, and Win7 64 bit. I have a deadline -- by late today or early tomorrow, and it needs to be uploaded to or by DropBox or downloaded from my Google Drive. My test renders using WMV at 1920x1080 come out to about 880 MB. At less than 1 MB upload DSL speed, this is going to be an all night upload.
Second, I never rendered for Mac platforms -- and the organizer will be using what has become common: using a laptop to plug into and display on a large background screen.
Third, my Handbrake update nuked all of my various presets, including the MP4 custom one's I in part based on Musicvid10s classic YouTube tutorial. Which I believe were applicable to not just YouTube, but any form of MP4.
And due to music being central to this project and the dropping by Handbrake of an important audio rendering engine due to copyright stuff, maybe I could pull off a decent MP4 or ? through VP10e?.
And here is the monkey-wrench in the mix:
While I have done a pretty good job in post, this is a project for which I lost the original 1929 x1080 .veg and have only a one layer or single total-render that was 800 x 400 (yes, not 16:9), but I've added color co-ordinated horizontal letterboxes. So I'm starting with an up-rez, and while it's noticable, due to the subject matter, the softer look actually fits the ethos of the video.
The person doing the event is not tech savvy and so here is what I would appreciate as feedback -- A.S.A.P.
A. VP project is 4:35 min. at 1920 x 1080 progressive, 8-bit (fine with me, only kind bit rate I've ever used).
B. What settings and format in Handbrake should I use if I render the master to uncompressed AVI, then Handbrake it? (I have the space, then once converted, I nuke the AVI.)
C. Could I sidestep having to use Handbrake and use something native to VP10e that would work, and again, what settings?
Naturally I need to find a "sweet spot" between file size and image quality. But I'd rather err on the side of quality for that just would mean I'd do an overnight upload that my spill into morning...
I really need your detailed input on best approach.
Thank you.
