FAQ
- Frequently Asked Questions
|
1
- Where can I play my MPEG1 or MPEG2 files?
You can play your MPEG1 or MPEG2 files on your PC or MAC. But
please note that in order to play MPEG2 files you need to have
the right "codec" (some software to translate your
MPEG2 files). Generally if you have installed a DVD play back
software on your PC you will be able to play MPEG2 files. For
Apple Mac computers you may require additional software to enable
MPEG2 support.
2 - What file format can I use in PowerPoint presentations
or similar?
We recommend you use MPEG1 (Standard or Super) for your PowerPoint
presentations.
3 - What is the best format for wider distribution?
We recommend using MPEG1 for wider distribution. MPEG1 files
can play on PCs or MACs and all necessary software already comes
with your operating system.
4 - Can I edit my MPEG1 or MPEG2 files?
We encode the MPEG1 and MPEG2 files in a suitable format for
editing. Please check your video editing software to ensure
it supports MPEG files.Note that Apple Mac users may require
additional software to enable MPEG2 support.
5 - How will I know which MPEG1 format (Standard or Super)
is best for my needs?
We have prepared a short sample for each MPEG1 format and you
can download these now by clicking on the following links.
IMPORTANT: Once you have downloaded each file rename
the ".XYZ" extension to ".MPG" before running
the file. Note that these samples were taken from an 8 year
old VHS tape.
MPEG1
Standard Example - Download Size = 4MB
MPEG1
Super Example - Download Size = 5.5MB
7
- How long does the conversion process take?
Unless you have chosen one of our Rush Job options then you
should expect your conversion to be completed within 3 to 5
working days from receipt. If you have submitted a large order
then please let us know the order of urgency and we will send
completed conversions to suite your deadlines or on a weekly
basis.
