Video Export - Garbage Quality?

Post by T-Top » Mon Oct 17, 2011 2:21 am

I can't seem to find a way to export video in anything other than a tiny box in a video player, surely there's a better option that I'm missing out?

I edited a 720p movie in Ableton, and I want to export it looking the same. Everything I've tried it looks like garbage, but hopefully I'm missing something.

Thanks!

You can export video in any Quicktime codec that is installed on your computer.

So, some questions:

What is the codec/framerate/bitrate of the movie you have used to do your editing in? ie the one you imported into Live.
What are your computer's specs? (Mac/Pc? processor? RAM? etc etc)

And most importantly: what Encoder Settings are you using when you export the movie from Live? (As seen in the window pictured below) This is where you would set the export to anything from a shitty quality/postage-stamp size, to Full HD.

Ahh weird, I swear I never saw the size option before -_- epic fail, but weird that the default is so low.

Thanks for the response haha
