The Share window displays the basic details about the le (size and resolution) and lists
compatible Apple devices. Although selecting iPod results in a le that is compatible with all
Apple devices, the le’s resolution may produce low quality when played on an iPad or Apple TV.
3 Select “Add to iTunes” if you want the shared le added to your iTunes library.
4 To specify additional options, click Show Details, then open the Options pane.
5 In the Options pane, choose settings to ne-tune the rendered output:
•
Sizes: To render the project to more than one size, select multiple devices in the Sizes area.
Choosing multiple devices results in multiple les with the same name.
•
Encode for: Select “Higher quality” or “More compatibility.” Note the dierence in le size and
number of compatible devices listed. Choose the encoding option that creates an output le
compatible with the devices you use to play the project. Greater compatibility generally results
in lower quality when played on high-resolution devices.
•
Title: To change your project’s name in iTunes, enter a name in the Title eld.
•
Add to playlist: To add your project to an iTunes playlist, choose a playlist from this
pop-up menu.

Compression: Choose a render quality from the pop-up menu. If you choose “Faster encode
(single pass)” you to sacrice quality for faster processing.

8 To see details about les to be output, open the Summary pane.

The time it takes to output the project depends on the size of the movie, the number of movie
sizes being rendered, and the Render settings you selected. You can monitor the render progress
using Share Monitor. For more information, see About Share Monitor on page 1044.
If you selected the Add to iTunes option, iTunes opens (if it wasn’t open), and the new output
media appears within.
