Compressing 720p MOV

[bansheeproductions]

I'm looking for settings in Quicktime Pro to compress both 720p and 480p HD video, (bitrates, etc).

Also, the settings for WMV-HD.
And if you can do SWF-HD that too!

Bitrates really depend on application, are you using this to archive a file? Are you using this to display over the web? Are you using this to send to another editor?

For reduced bandwith settings, microsoft reccomends 2000K min 5000K peak 2pass vbr restricted for 720P HD content.

As for quicktime, if you are sending it to another FCP editor, encode it in the native format captured (HDV or DVCProHD)

For putting your file out on the web, I highly reccomend using Flash video for compatibility and ease of use.
