Thanks for the detail RJ. I'll be trying that out in the next day or two and I'll let you know how I got on.

More update. I found that starting with and modifying the WMV Cable Modem DSL preset gives better results than starting with and modifying the HD preset I previously mentioned. Don't know why. Also, at 6000 kbps bitrate the file size is smaller.

Another note, the audio has to match the video in the type of bitrate -- either CBR or VBR -- and number of passes. If they don't match, then the audio settings are used. Well, just watch that one.

Rob,

In version 3, I was trying the 1024x768 scenario from the question on the Adobe forum. I have a few questions and observations -

I noticed that the v3 preset for WMV 720 30p had a 50 value for image quality whereas you suggested 20. Now I have no idea what this specific value means but for that percentage of difference, I was wondering what that value does?

I did not have a choice of Windows Media Audio 9.2: I had to choose 9.1 - not sure why. Is this because of PE v3 versus v4 or is it likely that your PC has a later level of the Windows Media Encoder than I do? I chose 128 kbps, 48khz, stereo (A/V) CBR becuase I did not find a match on 96 kbps and all other parameters.

The existing test slide show I grabbed to do this experiment only had 4 photos (jpeg file resolution of 1600x1200 by coincidence not because of your slide show) and 2 text only slides with no pan or zoom - so it was real quick on a P4 3.0 HT with 1.5 GB. More interesting might be the fact that Scale to Frame Size was unchecked and I left it that way. My feeling is that in version 3 SPECIFICALLY we had decided that unchecking Scale to Frame Size was better: that is the way that PSE 5 sent the slideshow across to PRE3. I guess I should experiment with checked and unchecked for this type of output to observe if I notice a quality difference.

RJ were those jpeg you got from your Kodak camera that you brought into PE 3 or did you change them to a different file extension in Photoshop?

I only have PE 2.0 and P Pro CS3 so I am going to try it in CS3.

I first have to find some pictures with out any shaking first so as to get a good representation. ](*,) ](*,)

Edit
After looking at my export settings it appears P Pro does not have those export settings that Robert used.
Thanks
Richard

Rob,

I realized that yesterday I had missed your last post where you said you had started from the WMV cable modem DSL preset and had better results. So I will try again tomorrow.
