more tests with video on the web

I have created a compressor droplet in FCp and in order to compare googlevideo and YouTube here are the same flash development movies compressed as suggested and then up loaded. Youtube 1using the google settings


It made a 7MB file for uploading.

Youtube 2using the YouTube settings

It made a 15MB file! watched locally it looked worse than the file compressed using the Googlevideo settings. I imagine this is down to the use of H264 by google. Maybe.

Youtube uploading is simple and easy to use – Google video has a good trick with the uploading application. But there is a delay as the video is processed and once processed additioanl infromation is required before it goes live. So its a longer process. Watching both videos via the blog – they are about the same in terms of quality.
