Poor video quality
I am new to this. I've noticed that my videos, while viewing them on my computer before uploading them to my free JWPlayer account, look very clear, but after I upload them, the quality changes quite a bit - the pictures are almost fuzzy and of poor quality.
Am I doing something wrong? I wonder - when I make them on my computer and go to save them, my program compresses them when it makes them into the mp4 format. Is JWPlayer also compressing them when I upload them? Should I not be compressing them first before uploading?
A concern though...if I shouldn't be compressing them beforehand, I wonder how long it will take to upload then? It already takes a very long time for a 1-2 minute video.
Can anyone give me some tips?
