Video Compressor

Hey everyone, just a tip.......

If you haven't already rendered your scenes (Bit late if you haven't) Marc mentioned to me that using a different compressor is very good for dramatically improving the quality of the renders. I found that changing the compressor to 'Indeo 5.10' made a huge difference, and strangely the file that it produced was smaller in size than the one that the standard compressor produced!

In case anyone doesn't know how to do it, Here's how...

Select 'Rendering' and then 'Render' (Or simply press f10)

Then scroll down to the save file option, Click on the grey box that sais 'files'

Now you will choose the name of the rendered file (I'm sure everyone knows how to do this part anyway)

When you chose the type of file, you want to save, choose .AVI

At the top of this dialogue box there is a drop down menu of different types of file compressor. From here select 'Indeo 5.10' If you have it. Let me know what you think, or if you come across an even better one let me know!
