Using Adobe Premiere Pro or Media Encoder
Assigning a Matrox MAX H.264 preset
This section describes how to assign a Matrox MAX H.264 preset to your source
file in Premiere Pro and Media Encoder for delivering QuickTime files for the
web, and for use with Apple TV, iPad, iPod, iPhone, and other QuickTime-based
devices. The Matrox MAX H.264 presets include the predefined presets installed
with your MXO2 software, and any custom presets that you create (see “Creating
a custom Matrox MAX H.264 preset” on page 141).
¦NoteWhen selecting a predefined Matrox MAX H.264 preset, any
modifications made to your source video’s frame size in your application must be
taken into consideration. For example, if your source video was cropped in your
application, your source video’s frame size is the cropped frame size and not the
original frame size.
1 Start Adobe Premiere Pro and open a project, or start Adobe Media Encoder
and add the source clip or sequence to the queue.
¦NoteWhen encoding using the Matrox MAX H.264 codec in Adobe Media
Encoder, the Matrox MAX H.264 codec does not support batch encoding the
same item (job) in the queue to more than one Matrox MAX H.264 setting.
To export your file/sequence to more than one Matrox MAX H.264 setting,
you must add a separate item to the queue for each Matrox MAX H.264 setting.
2 If you’re working with Premiere Pro, choose File > Export > Media. If
you’re working with Media Encoder, in the
Queue panel, right-click the clip
or sequence that you want to export, and then click
Export Settings.
3 In the Export Settings dialog, under Export Settings, select QuickTime
from the
Format list, and then select the desired Matrox MAX preset from
the
Preset list.
4 Export the file as you would normally.
Creating a custom Matrox MAX H.264 preset
You can create a custom Matrox MAX H.264 preset in Adobe Premiere Pro and
Media Encoder for delivering QuickTime files for the web, and for use with
Apple TV, iPad, iPod, iPhone, and other QuickTime-based devices. Once you
create a new Matrox MAX H.264 preset, you can assign it to your source file in
Premiere Pro and Media Encoder using the steps described in “Assigning a
Matrox MAX H.264 preset” on page 141.
