Hi 

 

I want to use 1 image to create a "music video" for my song so i can upload to youtube.

The image is 1920x1080 and the audio is a wav file.

 

What i have done is imported the audio and the image. And stretched the image to the same duration as the audio. But the problem is when im exporting the video. The filesize is so BIG. What im i doing wrong??

I did an export of a 5min still with these settings and got a file size of 684KB try it and see if it is good enough.

A video file is not just "one" image. And if you need even basic image quality,you will get what seems like a big file. 

Does it really matter if it is a big file?

 

You can reduce the file size by reducing bitrate and by reducing the resolution of the image.

 

You can set the audio bitrate separately from the video bitrate.

I have been trying different options, but all of them ends up as a very big file.

I just want to keep the resolution on the image at 1920x1080 and the audio quality without ending up

with GB filesize. I thought this program could do that but i may be wrong. Arent to familiar with it..
