LOSSLESS COMPRESSION

Now I know we've been told not to compress, and for those of you who have 4-5 hours to waste waiting to upload that 2 minute video, fine.

I have been using this old trick for a long time at 3CrowsStudio.net;

This codec and software will compress both audio and video with what i would say is complete losslessness. :D

At least give it a go, if it doesn't work it's more likely you've missed a step than it has damaged the quality.

Took my 459mb file, turned it into 30mb file (129mins to upload 459mb to youtube) or (8mins to upload 30mb to youtube) and the quality, resolution etc is untouched.

Thank me later.

Also watch this space for the video! (actually watch Animatic, that's where it's going)
