Thanks all for the info about aspect ratios and Quicktime. I've
learned quite a bit.
The main reason I'm hassling with this at all is that I'm
old-fashioned and host my own video web site. I want to use mp4 files
so that people on Apple devices can see my videos, hence my attempt
at fiddling with encoding. I like to be able to control the quality
of the video I present, and I'm able to create 1080p files for people
to view on their computer monitors.
A hosted service is obviously a much more convenient way to put out
videos. Johnny's able to hand over a video file to Apple TV and they
convert it to a format that works flawlessly with Quicktime viewers.
YouTube and Vimeo do much the same thing (although I notice that
Vimeo files can't play back in more recent versions of Firefox).
Ah, codecs, players, and browsers. They're not easy to get to play
together well, and they're fine proof of this old maxim:
The great thing about standards is that there are so many of them to
choose from.
