1080p render settings

[John Rofrano]

[Michael O'Sullivan] “Other people seem to have much better quality yet my videos are also 1080p. I prefer the sony avc codec as it uses my cuda which makes my rendering real time but i have no clue what to do? what codec and settings should i use?”

I would ask the other people what they are using. I like to use MainConcept AVC with the Internet HD 1080p template for uploading to YouTube.

Youtube encode help

I would encode to 10-12Mbps since the Vegas encoders are not quite as good as the x264 encoder used by Youtube.

Youtube re-encodes everything you upload and you have no control over that.

may i ask why you use mainconcept avc over the sony avc as sony avc supports cuda?

MainConcept AVC also supports CUDA and renders faster on my NVIDIA Quadro 4000 with CUDA and on my ATI Radeon HD 5870 with OpenCL than Sony AVC does.

what the hell lol if i pick main concept with cuda enabled or not its exactly the same render time lol i do have a gtx 780 and the 600 and 700 series dont really work do they?

Nope. The Kepler cards don’t work with MainConcept. That’s why I stayed with the Fermi based Quadro 4000.

Ermm… ? I use the Publish(?) to YT in VP13; choose HIGH in the Menu and it comes to YT finished. I have NO idea what quality I’m loosing, but looks fine to me.

I have the older Quadro 4000 based on the Fermi architecture, not the newer Quadro K4000 which has 768 CUDA cores is based on Kepler. Quadro’s are not designed for speed, they are designed for stability. The drivers are not tested and tweaked for games, they are tested and tweaked for professional 3D applications. They are sold at a premium because hey have premium support. You get to call a human and discuss problems and get resolutions quickly. They are targeted for the professional 3D market and IMHO are not worth the money for video editors unless you are also doing a lot of 3D. Meaning, I would never buy another one. 😉
