  • File size for Animation codec?

    Posted by Nathan Quattrini on March 4, 2009 at 4:38 pm

    I have a 22 minute video I need to render out uncompressed with the Animation codec on the Mac. Any idea how big it will be approximately? I only have about 5 gigs free at the moment and need to know how much cleaning of my hard drive I need to do. Thanks 🙂

    You haven’t given nearly enough information to calculate an answer but:

    The Animation CODEC is 1.2GB per minute at SD frame sizes.

    You’ll need about 204GB

    BTW, the Animation codec is square pixel so your frame size will need to be 1920×1080 with a PAR 1.00

    For future reference:
