Sorenson 3 Versus H.264



Hi Folks

Been doing some simple tests on QT7/H.264 in comparison to QT7/ Sorenson 3. No I haven't spent hours tweaking anything.
In one test - the QT7/H.264 comes in at 1.82 MB/118kbits/sec - while the QT/Sorenson 3 is 8.68 MB/564 kbits/sec. The QT7/H.264 took about 4 times longer than the QT/Sorenson 3 to encode [on my old, old, old Apple computer ;) ]


Quality wise - the Sorenson video looks as if I am watching with my glasses off - in comparison to the QT7/H.264 video.

I used FinalCutPro to do the encoding - for some reason iMovie keeps crashing [being a good boy I did send a "telegram" to Apple;)]


Question: I am shooting time lapse (every 30 sec for 2 sec) - in progressive scan. Does progressive scan make any sense in this time lapse (interval) case - if the video is for H.264/internet playback?
