| Hi There,
I have looked through lodas of post to try and find the best solution and cant seem to find the answer I need. I have some videos they are about 350mb in size and last about 40 mins they are 624x352 23fps and mpeg4 what is the best/faster way to convert them to a smaller filesize without loosing any quality. I would like them to be about 200mb or less. I have tried flv but seem to loose some quality, using aiseesoft total video converter. Any thought worul be helpful  |

| mp4 with h264 video and aac audio off course! See for example http://forum.videohelp.com/topic355179.html . You can also convert using handbrake, format factory or winff. |

| Thanks for the quick reply.
One question, should I use the settings in your example post or change them? |

| Use similar settings as your source, resolution: 624x352 pixels but you can try use lower video bitrate like 400-600kbit/s or use constant quality encoding mode. |

| Excellent work got the file size down to 200mb
Just one last question. In your example post you managed to embed the video into a post, I am using SMF do you have any idea how I can embed a video in to a post using JW Flv. I know this is not really your support issue but as you have really helped with this I just though you might know of a way? |
