Hi guys, Want to ask some opinion on compressing videos. Basically making a video out of screen shots. Not my work but I'm helping it out. I want to know what compression should I use that is compatible on basic windows XP machines without requiring additional codec.
I tried a few codecs, I don't have MPEG codec installed i think Windows Live Movie Maker and Windows Movie Maker has only 2 aspect rations 4:3 or 16:9 With Virtualdub, I tried: indeo (IV50), but the compression isnt good enough. WMV9 (WMV3), but it only comes with WMP11. Finally I use the MS MPEG4 (MP42) codec which is compatible with clean windows XP. Had to hunt the MPEG4 codec somewhere else. IF only I have found it earlier.
