Export Settings Option Description (Continued) Audio Format The following options are available: • Mono: Exports audio to a single channel. • Stereo: Exports audio to two channels. • Sample Rate: Sets the sample rate The Project Rate suboption uses the native rate of the chosen audio media (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz). The 22.050 kHz suboption is half the sample rate of 44.1-kHz media. The 11.025 kHz suboption is one quarter the sample rate of 44.1-kHz media. • Sample Bit Depth: Sets the sample bit depth When the 8 bit suboption is selected, the system exports an 8-bit audio sample depth for use in third-party systems that do not support 16-bit. This option is also used to minimize the data throughput requirements (for example, to improve playback in multimedia projects). When the 16 bit suboption is selected, the system exports a 16-bit audio sample depth (currently the industry-standard bit rate for audio). Export Settings: AVI Video Compression (Windows Only) The following table describes options available in Export Settings: AVI Video Compression. Option Description Compressor The following options are available: • Cinepak Codec by Radius: For export at low resolution where high quality is not an issue, such as presentations or educational uses, or for small-screen-size playback from CD-ROM or hard drive. This codec uses a compression algorithm optimized for CD-ROM playback. Click Configure to open the Cinepak for Windows 32 configuration dialog box. You can then choose to compress to color or to black and white. • Microsoft Video 1: For creating files that will play with Video for Windows. Click Configure to open the Configure dialog box. You can then adjust the quality of the compressed file using the Temporal Quality Rate slider. • Full Frames (Uncompressed): For high-quality export in which no picture information is lost. This option does not compress the file and can result in very large files. To export an uncompressed file at 1:1, use the Avid Codec for AVI. 647
