Hello
Looking for advice from those who use Sorenson Squeeze and other compression/encoding software. I work for an educational institution and over the last year we have been compressing DVDs and other file types to streaming video for our teachers.
I have been using Handbrake to rip the DVDs to mpeg4 for Sorenson (on my older G5), Virtual Dub for mpeg1 files and Sorenson to convert to our streaming media types (on a PC)
My question for those who might be familiar with these processes...
I have been given the go-ahead to order a new dedicated Mac to use for this purpose. I want to load Windows on the machine to be able to communicate with our "PC only" streaming software. Let's say I'm going to be allowed a $3000-$4000 budget. Which Mac should I be considering and at what configuration? Thanks for any advice
