I need H.264 for client-device compatibility, but I can still tune bitrate instead of automatically choosing the largest preset.
I prefer that route if relinking is automatic. I will test one clip from import through final render, then scale the proxy job only if the conform is ...
Would you put VFR detection before hardware-decode testing? My worst phone files are both HEVC and VFR, so there are two separate problems hiding in t...
I checked it. The clip is HEVC Main10, and this laptop is decoding it on the CPU. A low-res proxy is smooth immediately. So the file was fine; my assu...
Watch for symptoms: gradual audio drift, repeated/skipped frames, proxy mismatch, multicam alignment errors or output duration changes. If none appear...
That clears up my main misconception: I was treating MP4 as the codec. I will inspect the stream and test hardware decode/proxies before making any ne...
If optical flow is enabled, disable it and test simple sampling. You do not need synthesized frames when the source already has enough unique frames f...
