You may also find that by applying one or more of the denoise filters, that you will substantially reduce the bit rate. You also did not adjust the defaults you receive from format #8, except for quantization level. You may find that tweaking some of the encoding settings away from the defaults will help you to further shrink the size of the result. ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
