What Marc said. Also tracks in grading don’t usually have to be super tight. Faces can work with a soft power window with a close enough track or roto.

[Chris Wright] “As premiere only supports srgb. “
Uhhhh… What are you even talking about?

[Duke Sweden] “And where did this mysterious “k” come from, suddenly?”
That’s what Resolve uses. Some pieces of software use Mbps. 80000 bits per second (80 Kbps) would be really low for anything other than modern art or simulating a really bad internet stream. You can test this by inputting the number 80 to the “restrict to” box.

[Duke Sweden] “Isn’t 48mbps a LOT more than 80,000 bits? “
80000 Kbps = 80 Mbps
[Duke Sweden] “Also, will a DNxHD/R file play nice off a USB drive on a 4K tv?”
No, but I said that it would be a master. Master files will retain their quality. Then you can make compressed versions from that master instead of making huge H264 files that have diminishing returns or don’t work at all if used with hardware/software that is limited by the H264 profile/level it supports.

You can see the limitations in this wiki article:

I’d still suggest trying out using the outside node or learning how to route mattes from a node to a different node. It’ll come in handy at some point.

You really don’t need to export H264 at the maximum allotted bitrate because it pretty fast goes to the point where you’re not going to notice any difference and some hardware can’t decode it depending on what profile/level of H264 they support. QED i guess. If you want a master quality file I’d suggest a master format like DNxHR.
For example blurays max out at 48 Mbps for video and audio tracks combined and they usually won’t go that high depending on how much other stuff you need to fit on the disc.

I would use one with similar bitrate and chroma subsampling for the footage you’ve shot. Also better formats take more space, that’s just the way it is.

The free version is limited to 3840×2160 output. Even if you use the “use source resolution” from the deliver page the file can be the same size but the image inside the file is limited to UHD output.
