Because I converted this one file, used to be 11GB, then when I output it in Final Cut, I check marked the Recompress frames or something like that, and it is now 610MB and its really nice quality. By me putting a check mark beside that option, what did it do really? http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/final-cut-pro-video-quality-whats-the-best-but-smallest#post-32940 Tue, 09 Oct 2007 06:20:13 +0000 cfulton 32940@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ This is kind of a slow forum, but good things come to the patient.

I was wondering, what is still really good quality but small file sizes? Please help.
