I'm sorry but I don't understand how to do that. Isn't there an easier option? My 5100 doesn't shoot 4k just 50bps HD

I love PD however my video looks better going in then after they come out

Hi brianv7 -

You can probably customise a profile for your A5100 clips without needing to manually edit the Profile.ini

In the Produce module, have you tried clicking on Intelligent SVRT? Did PDR suggest a profile? It does here, with sample clips matching yours. If so, you can apply it.

If not, just select AVC H.264 > MP4 > 1920x1080/24p (16Mbps) then click the + button to reset the bitrate. See attached screenshot.

The App Data folder is hidden by default. You can change that in Control Panel. See attached screenshot.

Cheers - Tony

can I bother for one more thing?

If I combine clips from the Sony which is 50bps and a Canon T3i DLSR which is ?, then what output should I use?
My guess is 1920 x 1280 24p (16mps)?


thanks again

Hi again -

No need to guess video properties. With the clip in PDR's library or timeline, right click to see properties. Even better, use MediaInfo to give you accurate information.

Typically, T3i clips would be ~45Mbps. If both lots of clips were recorded at 1920x1080 @ 24fps that's better. If the frame rate is different you may get some frame artefacts.

AVC H.264 MP4 1920x1080/24p (16Mbps) would give you a decent result, depending on your purposes. e.g. for YouTube/Vimeo that'd be fine. For home viewing, I'd bump up the bitrate closer to 40Mbps.

Oh - forgot to mention...

Your T3i clips will probably have narrow black bars on each side in preview. That's because the actual resolution is 1920x1088.

If that doesn't bother you, OK. If it does, just resize the clips before producing (it'll cut off the very top & bottom).

thanks so much!
1. So If the t3i is 45 and the sony is 50 the highest I can go is 45? and I should expect that a 30-40 min movie will be many gigs of file? For online streaming or DVD would you suggest something lower?


2. ONE LAST QUESTION: I just pulled in a project with the T3i footage. I hit produce and hit the SVRT just for heck, I have 8 profiles but all in RED and can't choose one? What now?

sorry for all the silly questions I've been using PD for years and have an oppertunity to produce porduct for the market and need to step up my game. If I get just get this end of it I'll off and running. Thanks for all your help!!
