Tips & Warnings

• Choose Codec of video: Select MPEG-4(fast conversion, larger file size) or H.264(slow conversion, half the size) for the same quality as you like. Bitrate: The bitrate refers to the number of bits per second devoted to storing the final product; the higher the bitrate, the greater the audio resolution of the final product. Bitrate (kbps) needs to be below 768 for H.264, and below 2500 for MPEG-4. PQ DVD Software recommends using lower-than-maximum numbers here, just for safety. If you’re really picky about video quality, you’ll need to test some clips to determine what looks and works best here. Frame rate (fps): The frame rate is the number of frames or images that are projected or displayed per second. At least according to Apple’s technical specifications for the iPod, frame rate cannot exceed 30 fps regardless of whether you’re using MPEG-4 or H.264. In addition，you can also choose “Disable screensaver when recording” or “Shutdown the computer when the work is done”.
• Be aware that a avi format accepted by iTunes is not always accepted by iPod; Test it when you synchronize the iPod.
