HI,

Using the flv exporter within QT pro.I began with a QT 720 X 486 29.97. After exporting an opening the video in flash, the size was about a quarter size of the original movie. Why does this happen?

Should Sorenson Squeeze be used to achieve the desired full size output, or is this the result of using the media component?
