Hey! After a lot of trial and error here are a couple of additional tips that I found: It seems that if you set quality to Automatic Best the quality of the video looks much higher, no blurr or pixelation. Set the Key Frames to 1. Leaving it on automatic seems to introduce visual glitches especially if there is a lot of fast movement. Mostly aplicable to motion graphics. And lastly, when the format is set to QuickTime and rendered as h.264 or h.265 then it becomes impossible to download it to your iPhone. Especially if the resolution is higher than 1080p. But if format is set to MP4 the video works with iPhones as well at no loss to quality. Hope this helps to those who are struggling to get their footage ready for social media!

I tend to prefer the encoding profile to be in 10 bit. So I choose Main 10 on the encoding profile dropdown menu choice. - Main 10 profile supports up to 10 bits per sample, which allows up to 1024 shades and over 1 billion colors.

I need help! I'm on the studio version of DaVinci and no matter what config I set up on export, it simply WON'T give me the option to limit the bitrate to any amount under quality (auto). I can't uncheck the circle, the limit option is not grayed out, it ISN'T THERE. So frustrating. Any advice?

I keep my timeline in 1080p for quicker editing and export in UHD with no issues.. I restrict to Quality at 120000 as I use 60FPS, So I could try the 150K. Encoding Profile is Main10 for 10bit. Tuning I have set to High Quality. I also enable network Optimization if I have any issues in uploading.

Isn't variable bitrate better to get smaller file sizes while keeping quality high? With any project, you don't necessarily need constant bitrate when there's less information to render, so variable will lower the bitrate at that point and then go back up when needed. Right?

Thanks for info . I have a situation here to deliver for a TV network an MXF OP1a. I did it as a XDCAM2, 25 FPS enabled alpha channels for logo and lower thirds. It came out as 10 GB file for 24 minute show, which is fine. Problem is I need to archive it in MXF but native res that is actually 4K. There is no under XDCAM UHD or DCI 4K possibility to export so I tried with MXF DNxHR, that works but file size is almost 500GB! Do you (or anyone who cross over the comment) know what should i do to preserve 4K broadcast pack in this situation? Thank You

@@whoismatt For example, when I make a video with my iPhone and upload it directly to KZfaq, the SD, HD and 4K icons appear in the details of the video in KZfaq Studio in the Video Quality section right from the start. HD and 4K flash until the corresponding quality has been processed, then they stop flashing. However, when I cut and edit videos in DaVinci Resolve and then load them into KZfaq after exporting them, I only get the SD and HD icons but not 4K right from the start and also not later.

I am familiar with the "fps x 2000" rule for determining bitrate, which is primarily associated with the AVC (H.264) codec. However, this rule may not be as applicable to the more advanced HEVC (H.265) codec, as it employs a more efficient compression algorithm. For instance, I could not discern any noticeable difference between 16.8 Mb/s and 42.2 Mb/s bitrates while viewing my 4K footage. What is your opinion?

@AdamSzarmack Жыл бұрын

Don’t forget on deliver page, change colorspace to P3-DCI and gamma tag to Rec.709. This will keep your colors consistent from what you saw while grading and what gets exported.

no no no... wtf... are you genuinely ignorant on color management or do you deliberately want to derail people? to anyone: if you work in rec 709 stay in rec 709. if you export for web do rec 709. if you export in P3 dci it means that all your pipeline was in p3 dci, mainly your monitor was calibrated to p3 dci, and you have a specific reason to work in P3 DCI. do not move from rec 709 unless you KNOW what you're doing. certainly not because of random comments on the tube.
