Re: Recommended MPEG-4 settings



Thanks! And what about the fast-start issue? Do I want "Optimized for:
" to be "Download" or "Streaming"?

And what's the difference between MPEG-4 Basic and MPEG-4 Improved.
Intuitively, one would assume "Improved" would better, and so why
would anyone ever pick "Basic"?
