Reminds me of a BIAB VSTi within Reaper. How cool would that be?

Re: Format Factory

Forget using MP4, the file size is huge, try WMV instead, the file size is about (??) 1/4 compared to MP4.

The AVI from BIAB won't work in Reaper, so a conversion is required. I've looked at Format Factory and decided to stick with Freemake, it's also free (you can get a number of apps to do other things -- all free). www.freemake.com


Win 10, 64 bit, love my Lenovo T420, BIAB 2019 (613), RB 2019 (2)

Short term memory is getting shorter.

Interesting, I just watched his videos today. He has a lot of good ideas and tried some today. He sure puts "a lot work" into his music. He uses BIAB, RB, and Reaper.

Ok you win, I've got mud on my face.

Here are my screenshots:
(1) using Freemake
(2) using Format Factory

Used the default of both apps. Too tired to make any internal adjustments / mods.

Thanks for pointing that out to me. I'll be sticking to MP4 (as you suggested).

If you go to Media Properties in your VLC player it should give the codec bitrate info or get MediaInfo for right click properties.
MP4 could be using Xvid DivX or H264.
Try to lower the bitrate in WMV.
Also check the output frame size/rate.
You should be able to get similar size/quality mp4/wmv
