Best Output for Web

[Nerfboy]

I want to export my work from Edius so I can show it on the web.

What would be the best quality? A streaming video wmv? Quicktime video?

streaming is bad news (not going to use cache, so expect lots of stutter for the viewer)

make it a downloadable wmv

So when I go to Output the video from Edius...what are the steps...

Select "Web Video" and then Windows Media file, and Web server video (not streaming, it's the only other choice.)

1. you mark in and out on timeline
2. export to ProCoder or ProCoder Express and select web video, windows media, webserver, then go to advanced settings and choose your size and datarate

for 16:9 I use 480x270 at 500kbps total
for 4:3 I use 480x360 at 500kbps total

I read on some other forums that you can also convert an AVI to flash...people seem to think that might be the best way.

Any thoughts?

Flash lets me convert to 700, is that too much?

it depends on who you want to watch it

a. the people with the fastest connections (if so, use 1000)

b. the average broadband users (if so, use 500)
