You essentially have no choice but to reduce the quality of movies so you can publish them. I suppose the purpose of this is for rapid web viewing. We routinely use Quicktime Pro (no commercial connection) with the H.264 compression (also low cost software at around $30). It does a relatively decent job of compressing and preserving sharp features and gives you flexibility on compression level. My typical workflow is to convert to RGB and then save as uncompressed avi from ImageJ. Those movies will import directly into Quicktime Pro. I would also highly recommend providing uncompressed or even raw files via your own website so people can access them there. I have seen situations where authors reference the website from within a publication to direct people there (http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v466/n7305/full/nature09255.html).

OK to shrink to <10 Mf for the stupid journal - and please feel free to quote me that a 10 Mb limit is stupid, and send the original data to "The Cell - An Image library" (spnsored by ASCB) for access of full data.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Hi, we used several different of the newer video compression codecs, like XviD or DivX and Quicktime, they all give surprisingly good results if you don't have too much noise. You can prefilter a bit to reduce noise and improve compression further. With XviD we often compress 500MB TIFF time series of 2MP to ~10MB, with acceptable quality, good enough for Beamer presentation. Thats of course all depending on your noise and variance between images, but I would anticipate a 10 - 50 fold decrease of size. XviD is well sup- ported and freeware on most platforms, and we export from MetaXpress directly.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Three comments on compression: 1. I haven't found anything truly acceptable to my tastes, but compression is required, so the next two suggestions are more constructive. 2. I have tried a few freeware packages and have to say that the $30 for QuicktimePro is well worth the money (I have used it on XP, Vista, and Windows7). 3. With fluorescent imaging where there is black background, filtering (not convolving, that's a different discussion) noise to pure black and bringing up the gamma to show the dim values better makes prettier and far smaller files even at higher quality compression. Non-moving solid areas makes for small files. ________________________________________________________ Michael Cammer, Assistant Research Scientist Skirball Institute of Biomolecular Medicine Lab: (212) 263-3208 Cell: (914) 309-3270 -----Original Message----- From: Confocal Microscopy List [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Mario Emmenlauer Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2013 11:18 AM To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: Video compression ***** To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Hi, we used several different of the newer video compression codecs, like XviD or DivX and Quicktime, they all give surprisingly good results if you don't have too much noise.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Thanks for all the suggestions with this. If nothing else, this has shown that there are many options and no accepted standard. Maybe it's time for a recognised standard method of compression for use with fluorescence microscopy data. It would be useful if there were an option available in ImageJ/FIJI to implement this. In the meantime we have managed to shrink our movie files using Adobe Media Encoder into MP4 format using H.264. The result is a little blurry, but the file size is ~10 fold smaller and it's still possible to see what we're trying to show. As suggested we'll upload the raw data somewhere for reviewers to access if required.

You can prefilter a bit to reduce noise and improve compression further. With XviD we often compress 500MB TIFF time series of 2MP to ~10MB, with acceptable quality, good enough for Beamer presentation. Thats of course all depending on your noise and variance between images, but I would anticipate a 10 - 50 fold decrease of size. XviD is well sup- ported and freeware on most platforms, and we export from MetaXpress directly.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Other options worth considering: 1. Upload to youtube, which will compress it for you. Download as a compressed MP4. You can upload as a private video if you're worried about other people seeing it. 2. Use ffmpeg! This is a very powerful tool, gives you lots of control, and it's free. You could read their documentation to unlock the full power, or just google for an example of the thing you want to do. A few simple examples here: http://www.catswhocode.com/blog/19-ffmpeg-commands-for-all-needs On Fri, Mar 1, 2013 at 7:26 AM, simon walker <[hidden email]>wrote: > ***** > To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: > http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy > ***** > > Thanks for all the suggestions with this.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Any compressed movie will be blurred to some degree. One of the reasons there is no standard algorithm is that the impact of any compression scheme will depend upon the nature of the image. As was suggested, do retain the uncompressed file(s). If you need to edit the movie, make the changes on a copy of the uncompressed file. Re-editing the the compressed version will often turn it to mush. thanks to all who made suggestions for movie making tools.
