Sure did. Have a very nice looking .mp4 setting that makes some pretty big files, about a third again larger than the old .wmv . I'm offering that as a high internet speed version. It's flawless looking. But it takes a long time to render because I set it up to give the best possible quality (complex settings, etc.) But it's worth the 4 to 6 hour rendering for a 25 minute vid because it just looks so damn good.
Then I have a low speed version which is a much lower bitrate and using the "fast" settings. Takes about 30 minutes to render. File size is about a third less of the .wmv file it replaces.
Seems to work fine with those two settings. If the member has a good broadband connection and isn't using all of his resources on his machine the high quality one starts streaming in about 3 seconds.
The low version can stream even when I'm uploading files at the same time.
It doesn't look quite as good as the high version, but it still looks pretty good, and better than 50% of the stuff I see out there.
