Translations:Ideas for video editing/40/en

• First, choose the video output format in the render dialog The option should be Video (ffmpeg/libav encoder)
• Then use the second combo box box to set the format to QT/MOV/MP4
• Check or adjust your resolution or dimensions,, though for most tasks including youtube upload the default 1920×1080 is good.
• then comes the frames per second. Default of 30.0 is also good for most applications.
• In video codec you should select the more efficient MPEG-2
• the current default bit rate of 2048 Kpbs should also be good enough for most applications, though when uploading to social media use at least 8192.
  • When using other codecs, there is a number you have to type. This refers most likely to quality setting. In h.264 or MPEG, which are not as efficient, reaper will not transcode things lower than 25% but these options are there if you need them for legacy devices or programs.
• You can leave audio settings as they are, or tweak them but beware that most containers require certain specific audio formats so that video plays back correctly.
• finally, when naming the file, you simply put the extension you want at the end of the file name (such as demo.mp4 or demo.avi) and the encoding will take place according to this.
