Cannot render to 5120×768
Posted by Toby Hruna on May 26, 2011 at 8:30 pmHi folks.
I need to render a video to 5120×768, but my video is rendered as 4096×768 with grey spaces at the bottom and top! What did I do wrong?
The render settings all show 5120×768, but the rendered video (H.264/MP4) is only 4096 pixels wide.Israel Long replied 13 years, 8 months ago 3 Members · 4 Replies -

Many codecs intended for final content delivery are restricted to various frame sizes at the different profile levels.
I believe 4096×2048 is the highest possible resolution for H.264 using High Profile 5.1.
You’ll have to output to something that is less picky. Maybe Lossless or ProRes if you have it. If those aren’t working than an image sequence should definitely work.

May 26, 2011 at 8:46 pmThanks a lot! I had almost feared that.
I’m working on a project that will be used for an installation with a surround projection of 5 projectors (so 5 x 1024×768 pixels). I was working with the entire 5120-pixel project and wanted to crop the single videos (it will need to be split) afterwards. Now I guess I will simply render the 5 single videos out from AE directly.
Thanks for your effort guys! -
