48 Chapter 4 Exporting Files with QuickTime Pro
If you want to stream a QuickTime movie using QuickTime Streaming Server, you
should use a web-optimized video or audio compressor to compress the movie file. All
QuickTime compressors are compatible with QuickTime Streaming Server, but the
compressors listed here are optimized to give the best results for delivery over the
Internet. For a complete list of compressors that QuickTime supports, see the Products
area of the QuickTime website (www.apple.com/quicktime/products).
 Video compressors: H.264, MPEG-4, Sorenson Video (any version), H.263, H.261
 Audio compressors: AAC, QUALCOMM PureVoice, AMR, QDesign

Creating Reference Movies to Optimize Web Playback
You can use reference movies to provide the appropriate movie for different users’
connection speeds. For example, you can have a smaller movie streamed to users
connected over a standard modem, and a larger version of the movie streamed to
users connected over a broadband connection.
Apple provides a free tool, MakeRefMovie X, that greatly simplifies the process of
creating reference movies. You can download this software at:
developer.apple.com/quicktime/quicktimeintro/tools
For more information about reference movies see “Creating Movies Optimized for
iPhone and Web Delivery” on page 48
