If you use Windows Media output, click the properties button and change the bit rate to 8500.

thats what we tried before, worked pretty well actually.

Just wanted to see if there was a "sweetest" spot.

The showmotion feature is nicely made, good job by Autodesk on keeping it simple, compact, yet with details we need.

thx

It's actually much more complex in R2. It takes some getting used to, but it's really cool because you can add captions and different story boards to it.

Should have a resolution set to 1920 x 1200.

do you really need to go beyond 1080 HD?

If we are talking IMAX, how about 4x that?

Have you tried what you suggest for large models?

Re: recommended video settings for high quality output

Todd_Rogers — Fri, 04 Oct 2013 18:10:05 GMT

1080 HD is a bitrate of 10400, a framerate of 24, and resolution of 1920 x 1200.

1080 is 1080 pixels vertically, not 1200.

I'm just wondering why you suggest something over HD, do you find it looks better on HD screens?

Re: recommended video settings for high quality output

Todd_Rogers — Fri, 04 Oct 2013 18:20:06 GMT

Yes you are correct, 1920 x 1080, but most computer monitors use the 1920 x 1200 which the video fits best on most computer monitors.

I use Camtasia Studio for editing my videos - just learning actually. So I discovered that Camtasia does not like videos that are larger than 1280x1024. So back to the drawing board and export a smaller video for that. Just an FYI...

I use Camtasia. Create a custom size. Works great for me. I created a custom size of 1920 x 1080.

I get an out of memory error...I have a pretty good setup here. Maybe I'm missing something.

Has anyone had any luck to render a video with a point cloud?? I have tried many different combinations of settings, but it only creates a strip of video in teh center of the screen, and doesn't render the full view.
