To configure video settings:

Select the video input Source from the drop-down list.

In the Size field, select the pixel size of the encoded video from the pre-determined sizes in

the drop-down list.

You can also specify a custom size for your video. This customization is useful when you are

capturing video to be played on a mobile video-device that requires a non-standard size for

compatibility.

When you click Custom, two additional fields (Figure 145) appear so you can enter the exact

size you want the resulting video to be.

Note: The size in the Width and Height fields must be divisible by 2.

Note: CIF and QCIF are proportional to the HD video resolution input.

Select the type of Video Encoder for Internet video, mobile phones, set top boxes, and

create media files for other MPEG-4 compatible devices according to the Motion Picture

Expert Group (MPEG) types (refer to Table 3 and Table 4).

IMPORTANT: Choose the container type (MP4, 3G2, TS, and 3GP) on the Output tab.

If you select MPEG4 from the drop-down list, the MPEG-4 Presets tab displays (see MPEG4

Presets tab). The fields on the Video, Audio, and Output tabs will change depending on the

type of video encoder you select.
