What size (pixel dimensions) is the target file? If the file is for web
delivery then you should concentrate on the bit-rate e.g. 300kbs for a
standard 512kbps broadband connection if you want it to stream. Reduce the
dimensions of the output file to get the quality you desire. I generally
use standard output sizes such as QCIF and CIF and alter the bitrate to suit
narrow band and broad band users for streaming.
If I want the users to download a full size video I'll use the most
efficient codec possible and the size of the file is what it is. Quality vs
compression vs file size.....
60 meg isn't that bad for broadband users btw.
