The WTV file format is recorded at a very high bitrate, which provides excellent video quality. To get a good conversion, I suggest using the Mpeg4 output with the h.264 compressor (codec). Also, keep the aspect ratio and dimensions of the video the same as the source to avoid distortion. You will need to experiment a little with the bitrate to balance the file size with the quality of output you are looking for. Try starting at 3000kbps and adjust downwards to see if the output quality is acceptable. See this page for a visual guide to the settings: https://www.deskshare.com/help/dmcpro/MP4Settings.aspx

When you upload to Facebook you should get a good quality video post.

Choose the WMV for Desktop Viewing conversion, select the 'Very High Quality' profile to get better video quality than the default selection.

If you have the Seagate GoFlex or Seagate FreeAgent media players, I suggest converting to MPEG4 with H.264 compression. Make sure to keep the same output resolution as your input file and to keep the aspect ratio the same. This should give you very good quality output.

The VVF file format from your digital video recorder is proprietary and cannot be converted. The solution I suggest is to install My Screen Recorder on the PC that can view your VVF file. During playback, you can use My Screen Recorder to screen capture the video to a AVI file. Then you can view the file on any PC or burn to DVD and view on any video DVD player. You can download My Screen Recorder here: https://www.deskshare.com/screen-recorder.aspx

Digital Media Converter Pro can reduce the size of your video. The correct selection depends on the length of the clip and quality you would like to send. A 1 minute video using the default WMV Streaming format at 314Kbps is about 2.5 Megabytes. The size is important because many email servers have a 5 or 10 megabyte size limit on attachments. If your movie clip is less than 2 minutes, I suggest using the WMV Streaming selection with the default settings. If it is a very short clip, you can use WMV for Desktop viewing to get higher quality. Longer videos can be placed on a service such as Video Desk. Video Desk makes it easy to share videos, and a free trial is available.
