Encoding Tips:
_______
– Avoid the use of non multiples of 4 pixel resolution (some media server / Gpu don’t work well with non multiples of 4 resolution).
– For Motion design content :
– If you use HAP/A codec, use Slow quality preset if you have small gradient, otherwise Normal quality.
– For real picture content , if you use HAP/A codec, Normal quality is a good choice.
– For Motion design and real picture, the HAPQ codec gives good quality and very fast encoding.
– For encoding matte part or wholly grey, use “HAP Alpha Only” if the playout software support it.
– Try to crop your render to match your content (and avoid big empty areas). The impact of an empty area on file size is small, but it will increase the ressources needed to play your footage.
– Adapt the “chunks” setting to the computer/app used to play your video (most of the time you can define the value of the number of “chunks” to the number of cores of the playout computer). If you didn’t know the hardware configuration of the playout computer, use 8 chunks wich a good compromise for most resolution.
Note that the chunk parameter, is the maximum chunk count who can be used to encode an HAP frame, it can be lower in practice to have all chunks with the same size.
