ENCODING AUDIO AND VIDEO 4-7
10 In the Save As window, do the following:
• Locate the Media drive
• Type Lesson4.qt as the file name.
• Click OK.
11 Choose Encode from the Encode menu (z+E).
12 A window displays and prompts you for added information. When you are
done, click OK.
The encoding process begins. Because this is a CBR 1 pass encode, the
encoding process will take the length of the material or, in this case, two
minutes. If we had chosen CBR 2 pass, the encoding process would take
two times the length of the material, or four minutes.
When the encoding process completes, a thumbnail for each frame of
video appears in the (Encoder Control List) ECL window.
