Any Video strategy for new iPad?

Jul 11, 2012 9:52 PM

Tags: #video #dps

I know the video for iPad shhould be a mp4 file, coding by H.264.

As the new iPad features a retina display, it requires higher resolution video.

Is there anyone has any idea about what the best setting when I try to compress the video for new iPad?

Quanlity vs File size ( resolution, bitrate, and any other thing?)

The recommendations for ipad 3 are no different than earlier models. For full screen video stick to 1024x768. The rest will really depend on the video itself.

Thanks to Bob.

I also read something like this:

iPad3 supports a maximum video dimension of 1920×1080 which is likely more resolution than you really need on iPad3.

It seems that the resolutioin/deimension is not the most important thing.
How about the bitrate for iPad 3? Anyone has any experiences about it?

We've found that a video over 1024x768 doesn't play great within DPS and becomes ridiculously heavy for a digital publication

.h54 compression is pretty good! keeps the file size down and the quality fairly nice!

It's interesting.

I may have a try with the .h54
