I have been trying to work out what format video to Produce in PD11 in a low file size that can be viewed on android? I need to keep the file size as small as possible.
Any ideas please

Did you look in Produce > Device. There are several profiles for various devices.

Plus you can create a custom profile for MP4 videos.

Thanks Carl ... have never used these but now I know

I should have looked ... sorry.

I am guessing that in PD 12 they have replaced phone models and used instead android/apple/windows whatever to differentiate?

Thanks Carl.
I have worked out that I can use the Sony Ericsson format eg h264 wrapped as a .mp4. To seriously reduce the 48MB original file size was a bit of a challenge but I got it down to a measly 3MB which does the job on a small screen.
(Background is that I wanted to send a clip to a friends smart phone but my broadband link is rather slow due to long copper line)

Really decent of you to take time out to help
