I love using VideoPad, it is so intuitive, but my problems are with exporting to mp4. I would like advice about which specific settings to use.
I normally use resolution: 1280x720
Compressor: mpeg
Video quality: default
Lossless export: autodetect
VRF: Max 29.970
But it is not as clear a resolution as I would like. But if I use a higher setting it often creates a file that is nearly 900MB !
I create videos that combine still images with some video, but usually no more than 12 minutes long.
If I use H264 instead of mpeg it triples the size of the file. Could you advice me on export settings that create a good quality result but without resulting in such a huge file?
Just to clarify I use a Macbook, so use macOS High Sierra, rather than Windows.
