Using photoshop for movies issue

    Yeah it works. The visual is fine (But it's a bit low quality... But it's okay!..) The sound is fine and it ends instantly as I wanted. Thank you.

    But..
    I will have many videos that I want to input and it would be annoying to constantly ask to to encode every video for me. If you could somehow screen record your progress of encoding a video like how you did with the logo.avi? For reference, don't need to talk but just to see step by step in a video. 

    Even though you have in writing.. I am better at understanding with visuals and a video. I just need a clear preview of it. If you can't then I... *sigh*

    I'll record one tomorrow, when I'm on my Mac.

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/5m0bp6ovg9ak38o/Simons%20iMac%4020...

    And the command:
    ./ffmpeg -i %1 -c:a libvorbis -b:a 160k -aq 9 -strict experimental -vf scale=1920x1080 -c:v libvpx -b:v 2800k -y %1.mkv

    Remember that it can only get what's coming in, so crank up the bitrate for the Photoshop export, so it's not so blocky.

    I converted a 1minute video, and it's taking a while. I'm guessing it does that depending on how long a video is right...?

    The higher the bitrates/quality/resolution/duration, etc. the longer it will take to convert.

    I could record my screen on highest quality setting at 1080p & I would end up with a massive filesize, even if I only recorded a few minutes. Probably why videos in games aren't often super high quality as they would make the game required space absolutely huge.

    Conversion can take some time, and often Macs are not the fastest because you have to put so much cash on the table for a decent cpu.
