No H.264 Preset For Quicktime Export in CS5.5?

Nixpix66 Aug 13, 2012 7:30 AM

Hi there,

My work just gave me Premiere Pro CS5.5 and I'm trying to export a short movie.

The problem is, I can't get the H.264 preset for quicktime. Here are the presets that are available: http://imgur.com/r4UZI

I want to export a 720 X 1080 video that isn't too large a file size. Any ideas?

I tried doing some custom settings, (which you can see in the image under the drop down menu), but the file size was 150 mb per 30 seconds.

I'm really stumped here. Any help?

Twirl down to "h.264?" i tried that. You can even see on the image I provided that it is currently set to custom with h.264. The file size, however, is 150mb per 30 seconds. Is that what you're telling me to do?

Edit: Twirl down as in scroll down?

Don't use format QuiRcktime. It is best to avoid that at all times.

Use something like:

When I use any kind of H.264 export, the video is exported as two files: a m4v format file and an AAC format file. I would like an mp4 or .mov file... Something is seriously wrong here, mate.

Yeah, because you have multiplexing turned off. That is called Operator Error, OE.

Select your required audio format in the audio tab, then move over to the multiplexing tab and select for instance MP4 multiplexing.
