Hey all,

Here’s a little advice from apuissance2, to help you get the best quality possible and with a minimum file size for your creations uploaded on Eyeka.

“After a couple of tests and research, here’s one of the best tweaks to upload your videos in a quicktime format.

All you have to do is use the “local network/intranet” settings available via Quicktime, which gives you this:

IMAGE SETTINGS:

In key images, check “each” and type 150

Leave compression quality as is, and for the bandwith, restrain to 1372 Kbit/s (it’s the default setting)

SOUND SETTING:

AAC format, normal quality, 128 kbps”

If you have any other tricks, post them in the Comments of this post!

Thanks to apuissance2!
