Movie Editor Pro Premium

The software its self seems to be working Ok and I've added a logo to my first MP4 video. But when I exported the video in MPEG 4 format it was 57.09 mb long. Thats 43.04 mb bigger than the original (14.05 mb) video was. I would have expected the size to be a little bigger because the logo was 6.12 kb. Why can't I export the finished video a little bigger than the original one was.

Perhaps some one could tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks.

There are several possibilities as to the cause, however we would be guessing without more information in particular we need more information on the file imported and exported.

If you use MediaInfo to analyse the before and after files and post the results from the Text view in MediaInfo.

Also see this topic and come back with your Movie Edit Pro full name and version and your computer specification as detailed in the topic.
