Ok, I hurried and finished the vid, I did kind of a crappy job. this version is pretty low quality, but small file size (6.26mb) hopefully by tonight I will have a lot better quality one. I am trying to figure out 5.1 surround sound. if I can figure that out, I will have it in the next one.

again, sorry if its lame... :(

Do you have an mpeg-2 encoding program?

What are you using to render?

Next time I see you remind me and I'll let you borrow Pinnacle Studio 9. I use it to render anything in any format and make it as big (or small) as I want. No to mention keep clarity.

Nice job BTW!

We all just like to see our own cars and when we do we smile and feel all warm inside.

want it in wmv/mpg format? btw, if your making a 2gb movie out of a 6mb/11mb file, then that wont help quality. hopefully you have the original source and a good host for a 2gb file :D. could always bittorrent it. if its in the 300mb area, i could host it, but ill be pushing it if i go any higher. any higher would be good for bittorent sake. a 300mb divx is pretty good quality, just go with 3500kbps video and 256kbps sound (dvd quality). or create a 3mb wmv profile and use that. just no quicktime/realpos anymore.

Are you using Vegas Video for editing? If so, take its render output (the enormous 2gb pig) and run it through VirtualDub with DivX fast motion.. I can encode at about 200fps with that setup.

I agree on the BT issue. He's a swell producer and arranger, but his own songs are little on the weak-sauce side.
