You can select advanced export options for video and audio. The Advanced buttons in
the video and audio sections of the Export Options dialog display the standard QuickTime

To change the advanced video export options

• Choose a codec from the “Compression type” pop-up menu.
• Choose the frame rate for your exported video in the “Frames per second” pop-up
menu, or choose Custom, then type a number in the field that appears next to the
pop-up menu.
• If the codec you choose uses temporal compression, you can set the frequency of
keyframes by selecting the “Key frame every” checkbox and typing the number of
frames you want in the field.
• If the codec lets you set the data rate for your exported video, you can do so by selecting
the “Limit data rate to” checkbox and typing a number in the field.

you to adjust the quality level.
