0 sphere Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 to help reduce file size you can: - lower the crisspnes and such in divx configuration (you can find it when you select the codec) - reduce resolution - reduce audio quality (or record separately) try using the most minimal quality and resolution for everything. see what file size it is, then you can make the qaulity and so forth better. just play around with it. ummm.... i also use mpeg compression (i think v3). that is a bit like divx. [edit] you can also record it, then bring it back into ulead video and reduce the size there. [/edit] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
