I use Movie Studio 8.0 and am making a Video Templeate and need help just understanding one thing?

I go to File then Rander As and in the Save As Type I pick Windows Media Video V9. then I click Custom Tab.

Now at the Bottum of this Page is a lot of Tabs and I know what they are for. They let me pick my Frame Rate Audio type and so n.

One Tab at the Bottum says Bit Rate.
And when I click on it the page that opens has all these Check Box
56k Internet.
iSDN.
Internet LAN.

And so on there is a fue others. Now I think I get it if I want my video to be on the net and I want to make sure anybody with a 56k MODEM can see it I put a check mark in that Box>

And if I want people with a DSL MODEM to be able to download my video at there speed I put a check mark in iDSN.

But one thing if I want I can put a check mark in all the Box.

So if I do this how does it Encode my video for all diferant speeds or am I not geting how this works????
Thanks Robert

It encodes your video differently, using more or less information per frame. The more information, the bigger the file, the faster the connection required to view it 'real-time'. So, for 56Kb, there will be no more than that amount of data per second, for ISDN 112Kb or 128Kb per second, and so on.

What are you hoping to do? If you're going to upload it to YouTube or something, then just don't worry about it. Create an AVI using Xvid or one of the other YouTube supported codecs, render at a decently high bitrate, then upload it. They will convert it and provide varying bitrates.

In the case of WMV files, I believe they actually encode multiple streams in the same WMV container, so you can have multiple bitrates embedded. WMV aware web-serving apps would potentially (I suppose) be able to determine the desired bitrate and serve only that stream from the WMV container.

But, this would only affect real-time (ie, viewer embedded in a webpage control) viewing. The user can still download a LAN version and watch it, it will just be larger to download first.

Hope this helps,
