Adobe Media Encoder Alternates and Audiences options

Specifying a streaming media codec in RealMedia or Windows Media formats enables Audiences options, while
QuickTime streaming media codecs enable a similar set of Alternates options. Both allow you to output variations
of a movie suited to different network speeds. The player software associated with the format detects and selects the
most appropriate version to ensure smooth playback. For example, Windows Media includes Audiences such as
Dial-up Modems (56 Kbps) and Broadband Or Cable Modem/DSL (384 Kbps). Whereas QuickTime generates
individual movies suited for each export type, RealMedia and Windows Media generate a single movie that stores
the variations.
Note: Some codec-specific settings are not documented here. For more detailed information regarding a particular codec,
check the documentation provided by its developer.
