I had a few requests to deliver on a USB stick.
I record from a canon 7d .mov file format and usually the "unedited version" is about 2 hours and the edited project is about 45 minutes.
Seeing that there as so many USB sticks with different specs along with TVs, I'd like to select a template setting that would play on computers or smart TVs (with usb key 3.0 plugged in).
So I'm looking into mp4..
Q1: I'm guessing the "Sony Tablet 1080p" template at 12,000,000 is a wise choice (yeah??)
Q2: I also like the m2ts format (the AVCHD 1920x1080 template at 15,000,000) and from what I've seen, it plays everywhere. I'm not sure if it will do well for a 2 hour file. Is this also a wise choice?
Q3: Would "handbrake" also work for the length of my projects? I think the file size would be a lot smaller.
Any other suggestions or route I should go?
Other notes: I usually deliver on BluRay but this last month I'd had 4 clients saying that they don't have bluray players and want a USB stick (even though it was mentioned in their contract that it would be BluRay..I guess they thought they would buy it one day..)
Thanks!
