QuickTime Video
To modify a QuickTime video preset, follow these steps:
1. Open the Encoder Presets window.
2. Select a QuickTime preset from the Encoder Presets menu.
Note: To use a newly created preset (See Creating New Presets).
Note: Select QuickTime from the Output Format menu.
3. Select the Video tab.
4. Check the Video Enabled checkbox. When checked, the video for your broadcast is
encoded. When unchecked, a blank video screen is provided. This is the preferred
method of producing audio-only broadcasts.
5. Select the encoder from the Encoder menu. The encoder is sometimes called a
Codec or Compressor.
6. Click Options to view and/or set the encoder options. Many, but not all encoders
provide optional settings.
Note: If the Options button is greyed-out, no options are available.
7. Select color depth from the Depth menu. Some Encoders allow you to modify the
color depth (or bits per pixel) of the broadcast. Picking a higher color depth results
in larger output, but lower color quality.
8. Enter the width of your broadcast video.
