[FFmpeg-user] Which settings to convert videos with a lot of static content?

[John Reid]

Hi,

I would like to convert many videos from flv and wmv to mp4. They 
content a lot of static images, i.e. there is no motion on screen for 
seconds at a time. Even when there is motion, it is only a part of the 
image that moves. The audio is spoken word. Are there any settings that 
are suited for this sort of video good to use? Obviously I would like a 
good reproduction and a small file size.

Thanks,
John.
