Hi all.
What I can in my situation? I´ve got MOV file 5400x1080 pixels,7 Gb size for my wide projection. I am not able to play this file directly in PB smoothly. When I used encoder extension, final mxl file has 430 Mb and quality is really poor. What I can do when I want to play this file smoothly without loosing quality. I can´t get another file from produstion company, I have to work with this MOV file.

Thanks
Josef

Hi Josef,

it all depends on your Hardware.
So you have a SSD Maschine? If not, you do not have much chance, other than mxl.
You can increase the bitrate to up to 400MBit with MXL.

If you do have SSDs, you can use the coolux codec

Inside the coolux codec you have the option to use BMP SNP (Bitmap with Snappy Frame Compression).
The quality is uncompressed, files are pretty big. You will only be able to playback this from a SSD RAID.

I hope this helps.

Hi Daniel,
we don´t have SSD disk in our coolux. Fortunately I´ve got another file from client in other format which works. So there is no way how to do it with our hardware instead splitting this big resolution file in three M2V files?
Thanks for your fast response.

Best regards

Josef

Hi Josef,

You are correct. Basiclly the only chance you have is splitting into multiple m2v files.
