Please note that this is an old tutorial! While I tried to update a few things, it may still contain a few errors. I'm keeping this tutorial up for those of you who are going to use this older piece of software. If you are using a new version of VideoStudio, read this tutorial instead.
PLEASE NOTE: These instructions might not work well with VideoStudio 10 or 11. While I (finally) get around to updating this tutorial, please consult this LJ entry for more information on exporting (at high quality) with VideoStudio 11.
Exporting your finished VideoStudio 9 project and converting it for the web:
Exporting . . .
After you have edited and tweaked your mastepiece, you must export it out of Video Studio. There are several built-in options for exporting, but we're going to go a different route.
It is important to remember that yes, uncompressed video is REALLY huge. This is desireable. The philosophy should be "good quality in, good quality out." Whenever a video is compressed, some detail is lost. Avoiding this as much as possible means that the final video will have a sharper, more detailed picture.

Frame rates on your video depends on whether you used PAL video (25 frames per second, or fps) or NTSC (29.97 fps). (PAL is used in Europe, NTSC in North America.) VideoStudio seems to automatically detect which frame rate you used (it knew that I was using 25 frames per second), but double-check to make sure it got that detail right.
