Hi,


I like Vimeo for its quality presentation. I assume that's what you're going for, too, an HD product viewing experience.

If so, the end product would need to have these specifications:

• H.264 CODEC (MP4)
• Size 1280x720 HD (640x480 SD) (Pixel Aspect Ratio 1.0)
• 30FPS if NTSC or 25FPS if PAL or 24FPS - Vimeo converts to 24FPS
• Keyframes ever 30 frames
• data rate 5000kbites/sec HD (1800 kbits/sec SD
• Audio 44.100KHz at 128kbps
• Deinterlace

That's just from Vimeo's site.

Export using Adobe Media Encoder using these settings, pretty much as in the pictures:

​

and

Good luck!

well the clips loaded just fine on the page, but they look to be in a 4:3 instead of a 16:9..... did i miss something? I am guessing change the option from square pixels to 16:9....

• Size 1280x720 HD (640x480 SD) (Pixel Aspect Ratio 1.0)
• Deinterlace

A PAR of 1.0 with those dimensions will get you 4:3 video. In addition, you shouldn't deinterlace material from the HVX if you shot in P, PA, or PN mode.
