Context between Export Bitrate Settings and Camera Bitrate?

Hi all
Is there a context between the PPro 6 export bitrate settings for H.264 blu ray and the camera bitrate e.g. 17Mbps? I read that to high values in the export settings e.g. 25 Mbps target and 30 Mbps max. can degrade the image quality due to recalculation.
Thanks for your appreciated help.

The video capture defines how much real image information you have. Transcoding to a higher bit rate won't give you any more image information than what you started with. It will give you more data, but not more information. And those aren't interchangeable concepts.
My thought is that you just want to encode such that you don't actually loose any of that image information that you captured. You could probably use a max bit rate of 17Mbps if that's the max your camera recorded. It's easy enough to encode some disks (iterative trials are what BD-RE disks are really good for IMHO) at various levels and try them out, see what you think. You'll problaby end up where Jeff is -- encode a little higher than the original capture just to be sure. I do that too. ;-)

  • Diference between filter Lens correction and Camera Raw Lens Correction

    Whats is the main diference between tools: filter lens corection and Camera Raw Lens Correction.
    I am using PhotoShop cs6, OS Windows 7
    I already asked support team in Poland, but they send my back message: "we dont support any longer PhotoShop sc6"

    Swila, were your "other images" previously edited in Camera Raw? I.e., do they already have saved image settings? The defaults that you save via the flyout menu will only apply to new images, or if you reset an existing image to the defaults. (e.g., choose "Camera Raw Defaults" from the flyout menu).

  • Big Color Shift between exported H264 mp4 and Program Monitor

    I get a big Color Shift between exported H264 mp4 on Vimeo/Youtube and Quicktime X and Program Monitor.
    There are quite a few posts on Quicktime gamma issues, but there seem to be no solutions and the other editors I know don't seem to have this problem.
    I know there will be a bit of a shift but this is MASSIVE. At the moment I add a whole extra adjustment layer to all my clips to get it approximately right, but ofcourse this does not solve the issue nor does it give proper results.
    Please do not reply with the "You need a real reference monitor via SDI etc etc ..."
    By my logic on the same screen the program monitor should resemble what is going to be the final result in a relevant player like Quicktime X which all normal apple consumers use to watch their films.  I know VLC and Mpeg streamclip gives different results, but mostly when playing Quicktime/h264 files Quicktime will play it thus average users ( the people I'd like to downwload/buy my films )will watch it in Quicktime.
    Furthermore, Quicktime X's gamma/color looks very similar to the image I get on Youtube or Vimeo - which is where all my current work is going. I'm not outputting to boradcast or DVD etc.
    Strangely enough the MPEG 2 stuff I've done for DVD matches the Youtube output with the Program monitor.
    What am I doing wrong?
    I have a Dell 2711 wide Gamut Display which is calibrated with an SPyder 3 Elite using its full colour gamut ( close to 90% of Adobe RGB - thus bigger than sRGB or Rec709) Could Premiere be ignoring the calibration in the Program monitor and making the image values 16-235 and then Quicktime uses all  values 0-255? If so, how can I fix this?
    Any help will be much appreciated!

    I know this has been a while so hopefully you found some help by now, but maybe this will help anyone stumbling across this.
    What people seem to be missing in what you are asking is... this is the same file, on the same monitor, but with a different appearance in different software.  It is not a question of whether the overall monitoring is GOOD, and it is not a matter of hardware settings (as that would most likely propogate across all software) it is that it is not CONSISTENT side by side on the very same monitor.
    I had very similar issues that really seemed to get worse when we got new monitors, which is what lead me to chime in here.  The monitors were also wide gamut displays.
    The problem is likely this...
    1. The difference being shown are the difference between software that properly color manages (i.e. Premier or After Effects) and software that does not (i.e. Quicktime or some web browsers)
    2. The reason it is so severe is that the wide gamut monitors are able to show many more colors and thus the difference between the managed and unmanaged software is much more exagerrated than on regular gamut monitors.
    I found this great link that helped calm my nerves and helped me get handle on much of what is going on.
    http://www.artstorm.net/journal/2009/07/color-management-wide-gamut-dell-2408/
    Now that is not to say that the 0-255/16-235 issue is not also involved here.  It is definitely possible that a specific codec or compressor is part of the problem, but it sounds like it starts with the color management issue first.
    I hope this helps.

  • Is it possible to export user settings and import into same environment?

    Hi guys,
    I exported a user profile settings into a file and triedd to import saved file into same environment where I exported, but I am getting following error
    "Login name already in use"
    I followed the same process for restoring groups.Exported groups into a file and imported saved file into same environment, I was successfully restored thr groups.But I am failing to restore the user settings.
    Any help or suggestions on this issue is greately appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Importing into the same environment is not supported.
    Instead, you could create all the test users in production with all the roles and then deactivate the user, so they are not usable.
    After you overwrite the non-production DBs with the production DB, you could then run a script (you will have to create it first) to activate all the users.
    Will this work for you?

  • Difference between Export as Quicktime and Export as Quicktime Conversion

    If the desired end result is a Quicktime file, compressed with the default h.264 "for broadband" preset, should there be any difference between:
    1) exporting a sequence with "Export as Quicktime", then opening up that file in Quicktime Pro and compressing it with the preset.
    or
    2) exporting the sequence with "Export as Quicktime conversion" with the preset.
    I had expected these to be equivalent, but I've found that method #2 gives me dramatically sharper text in titles. Can anyone explain why? I'm using FCE 4.

    Well I reckon it's because you are crunching numbers twice, in #2 it's once.
    Despite digital transfers being said to Lossless, I call it Lessloss.

  • How to export Account settings and mailboxes

    I am migrating to a new computer.
    Now I need to trasfer some of the Mail.app data from the old mac, including:
    --the mail account settings
    --For POP3 accounts, i need to transfer the msgs for those inboxes because the received mails do not have a copy on the servers.
    --the Sent box in Mail.app. It seems this is a "global" container for all outgoing msgs, regardless IMAP or POP3 accounts. And I assume all the msgs therein are stored locally.
    These are everything I need to transfer. And not with other user data. So i guess the Migration Assistant wont help.
    Email clients normally have Export/Import functions but i cant find them with Mail.app.
    So how should I do the transfer as specified above? Thanks folks.

    If you don't want to use Migration Assistant, you could just copy the files to an external HD and then copy them into the exact same locations on the new machine. You can find the emails here:
    Users -> Library -> Mail -> there are several folders you want to copy: Mailboxes, all POP-yourname (if more than one).
    As for account settings: what I've done is simply take a screenshot of every window in accounts, named it, and then have a copy to look at if I need to set it up again.
    Address Book: If you will highlight one entry, then "select all", and then choose export under file menu, you can export the entire Address book and import the entries into the new one.

  • Difference between Export QT and Export Using QT Conversion?

    I am exporting video from FCE4 into iDVD, and can't understand the difference between Export QuickTime Movie and Export Using QuickTime Conversion.
    The first is much faster, but the video seems to suffer in quality. Am I missing something?
    Thanks!

    "Export Using QuickTime Conversion" gives you many more options
    (and many more ways of making mistakes); and it always recompresses.
    Using "Export QuickTime Movie" gives you the option to uncheck
    the "Recompress" box, which should produce a better result,
    if you're not changing codecs.

    What is the difference between my photo stream and camera roll?

    Photo Stream uses iCloud to send photos you take on iPad for example and makes them available on your other Apple devices, be it your iPhone or Apple Mac.
    Camera Roll is basically photos taken and stored on the device you are currently using.

  • Lightroom 2 and Camera Profiles for the Nikon D50

    Hi,
    I've installed Lightroom v2 and the new Camera Profiles, as per the instructions and various postings I should now see my camera name appear in the Profile section of Camera Calibration.
    The default profile is ACR 4.4 and when I drop the list down I see the usual settings and Camera D2X Mode 1 Beta 1, Mode 2, etc. but no reference to Nikon D50?
    The Metadata on my images is set to a Make of NIKON CORPORATION and a Model of NIKON D50.
    Looking in C:\programdata\adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\ I can see there is a D50 profile but Lightroom v2 isn't showing it.
    Any ideas?

  • Export ALL settings?

    hello all-
    i have been having some issues with Server 10.6.5 and am going to do a 7 pass erase on one of the xServe drives and do a fresh install of OS X Server. my question is, is there a way i can get all my settings to print out so when i do this fresh install i have them?
    i set this server up awhile ago and don't remember a lot of the stuff. i am hoping i can just make a cheat sheet and have everything up and running quickly and smoothly on the fresh install. all help is greatly appreciated....

    sorry for not clarifying: i am using a new disk. it isn;t that the old disk was failing, it's just that i wasn;t able to delete users and just some generally very strange and very aggravating "things" going on. that is why i asked if there is a way to export the settings and enter them on the new/fresh install.
    i am hesitant to use a disk image for fear of some corruption of some sort happening thereby negating my efforts to do a FRESH and CLEAN install. this is an OS X Server system that has been upgraded from 10.4 to 10.5 and now to 10.6. i am sure there has been some corruption of files along the way and just some general "gremlins" getting in from all the upgrades and changes. that is why i am not really so upset about doing the fresh install b/c things have been pretty good for awhile now.
    as i said, i prefer NOT to get the data for the new install from a disk image for fear of one or two gremlins getting in. i was hoping that i could just print out all the settings and just enter them on the new install. i appreciate all the help. if i don;t get some info before this weekend it looks like it's SnapzPro although i'd prefer just a text printout of the settings....
    thx.

  • I have edited a program of 1hour? Then now what should i do among settings & Bitrates? and i should get a best quality

    i have edited a program of 1hour? Then now what should i do among settings & Bitrates? and i should get a best quality

    The default bit rates for HD material going to DVD are 7.7 Mbps average bit rate amd 9.0 Mbps maximum. Do a short test of a section of your movie to see whether your player has trouble playing the disk at those rates. If it does, dial them back to 6.8 and 8.0 respectively, It's unlikely any quality difference will be detectable.

  • Best bitrate settings for optimal streaming

    Hi all,
    I export my video projects for the web out of FCE using 'quicktime conversion'. Under prepare for internet streaming I choose 'hinted streaming'. After export I convert the qt file into a flash video file via Adobe Media Encoder. Can some one tell me what the best bitrate settings are for getting the info to stream ahead of the play head while still maintaining a good quality video file? I'm not sure I understand the difference between 'target bitrate' and 'maximum bitrate'.
    Thanks in advance for any input.
    Best,
    Dennis

    Hi Geoff,
    Thanks for the input. Yes, this makes sense now to me. Exporting as 'quicktime movie' will work best when I'm putting the video on a DVD for presentation as it will maintain the high quality before being compressed by iDVD, or by AME for use on web. I am wondering what the two 'uncompressed' options are about in 'save with quicktime conversion' export process.
    Thanks.

  • Bitrate Settings****

    If I export my clip out of FC into Compressor (I'm using one of the DVD settings) and change the bit rate settings there, do I also have to change them in DVD SP?
    For example, if I put my max bit rate up to 7.9 and the default max bitrate in the encoding settings in DVD SP is 7.0...does this bring it down. Do I have to match it in DVD SP too? What happens?
    Thank you!

    No you don't have to match it. The settings in DVD SP are for when it is encoded there.
    If you encode in Compressor it will not be encoded a second time in DVD SP.

  • Premiere Pro CC and Encore CC are ignoring the Target and Maximum Bitrates

    Adobe Premiere Pro CC and Adobe Encore CC are ignoring the Target and Maximum Bitrates settings in the export window, The files that are exported are much smaller than what the estimated size of the file should be shown in the export window and are highly compressed. What can cause such an issue?
    I haven't drastically changed my presets.

    There is a very definite bug in the Adobe Media Encoder engine which is used in both Premiere Pro and After Effects.  H.264 exports seem to randomly choose their own export quality, using 2-pass VBR.  I have found with some DV-size exports on 'match quality' in Premiere Pro, that setting the export above 10Mbps pushes the quality down to well under 1Mbps, e.g. 167kbps.  I've found that using the default min 6, max 8 seems to work the best.  I've worked with this on two different machines and fiddled with it extensively and this is definitely NOT an intended 'feature'.  In fact, I have found that exporting from the same sequence, if I select the first 20 seconds, I get very low bitrate, but if I select 30 seconds or more, I get the higher bitrate that I want!  And I tend to get different results when I enable and disable 'use previews'.
    I am also having some trouble with missing frames when exporting progressive animation files to h.264 mp4 files that never occured before.  Not sure yet if this is related to the same issue, but interestingly, I don't get the 'blinking' missing frames issue when the bitrate drops itself down to a very low 150-200kbps.  When I do get the export rate up higher, then the missing frames on just this animation clip return.
    So, after my tests, here is a screen capture of sample export settings (yes, 15Mbps is a very high bitrate for DV, but the same happens at 6Mbps or 7 or whatever I try in some cases):
    This gave me a 1.5MB file with a reported 167kbps bitrate and a quality level as shown below:
    A currently working 'workaround' is to use 1-pass VBR which gives me a crisp, clean 5.5MB file.  Would a few others please try to reproduce this so we can get it escalated to bug status?  I'll report it if you can confirm it there, this is happening on two computers here.
    Thanks,
    Sean

  • Can someone explain bitrate settings in Adobe Media Encoder?

    Hi, there.
       I have a problem understanding the bitrate settings when trying to encode an FLV for Flash 8 or higher, using two passes.  When you choose to use two passes, you are presented with a bunch of different options, including "Minimum Bitrate [%target]", "Maximum Bitrate [%target]", and "Bitrate Variability [%target]".  These are not really explained properly in the online manuals I've seen out there.  Let's say you want to have a Costant bitrate (CBR) of 900 kbps, and you want to have two encoding passes, what do you set the other sliders to?  I can't make heads or tails out of them.  The defaults are
    Minimum Bitrate [%target] 80
    Maximum Bitrate [%target] 120
    Bitrate Variability [%target] 80
         Thanks for your help.

    Here is a little more background info concerning selecting a bitrate for video delivered over the Web:
    Video bit rate
    One of the principle of goal setting is to "Begin with the end in mind". In this case it'll be very hard to give good recommendations because the end is not defined. So I'll just make a few assumptions and you can correct me as needed.
    First, I'll assume that since you are converting to Flash, you want to deliver this video over the Internet. If that's true, then we'll have to make some assumptions on the Internet connection download speeds of your potential viewers. Let's just say that most have at least a 1.5Mb connection or faster.
    OK, that would mean that a video bitrate of half that should usually provide a video download that is not interupped by buffering (most of the time anyway). So assuming a video bitrate of 750kbps, what would the optimum display dimensions be?
    Before we decide, here's a little info about bitrate. For highest quality playback, the video bitrate is tied directly to the display dimensions. That is, the larger the display, the more incoming data is required to properly display the video. Think of bitrate in terms of a can of paint. If you have 1 quart of paint, you might be able to do a very nice job on a 32 X 24 foot area. But if you try to stretch that same amount of paint out over a 64 X 48 foot area, the coverage will not be nearly as good and you get poor results.
    In the same way, a video displayed at 640 X 480 pixels will require 4 times the bitrate as a video displayed at 320 X 240 pixels to produce the same quality. So for example a video with a bitrate of 100kbps, displayed at 160 X 120 will produce the same quality results as a video with a bitrate of 1600kbps if displayed at 640 X 480.
    So to boil it all down, video bitrates of 750kbps, even up to 1000kbps can usually get delivered of the Internet on most high speed connections. Higher bit rates may work for really fast connections but will cause problems for viewers with slower connections. Video display size has a direct bearing on the final quality. In the 750 to 1000kbps range, display size should be kept around 450 or 500 width max (and whatever height the aspect ratio calls for). Yes it can be displayed larger, but the quality will suffer.
    Sound like your audio settings are fine, especially for Internet delivery.
    As for framerate, maintain the original raw video framerate for best results. So if the video was shot at 24fps, leave it.
    As for video converters, do you have the Flash 8 Video Converter? It works just fine for video to be delivered over the Internet. Remember, you are taking a Cadillac version of video (h.264 HD) and stuffing it into a Chevy body to get it to work over the Internet.
    Best of luck!
