Digital Video Formats
We offer several ways to encode your video, such as:
-
Presentation WMV-- You can use it in presentations in Powerpoint.
Your video will play with quality that nearly equals
your source video file. We can fit up to
4 hrs on a disc.
-
Universal MPEG-1 or MPEG-2-- The quality is good. The main advantage
to this older format is that it will play on most computers and on most
operating systems. We can fit up to 5 hrs on a disc.
-
Computer AVI/MOV-- We encode your video to a file you
can edit on a MacIntosh or PC computer. Only 19 minutes will fit on a DVD. This advantage to this format is it is a raw file with pristine quality.
-
YouTube .H264-- We encode your video for use on the web. Your video will be compressed and sized for use with Facebook, YouTube, Vimeo and other video hosting websites. We can also upload your video to YouTube for you for an additional $20.
*YouTube does not allow a video longer than 15 minutes.
