I'm Alexis Van Hurkman and welcome to Resolve
in a Rush, where youll learn DaVinci Resolve
Grading and Finishing techniques in under
5 minutes.
In this episode, well take a look at how you
can export H264 encoded clips directly from
DaVinci Resolve.
Now in the course of every project whether
your editing or onlining, or working as a
colorist, you will have to submit a work in
progress to your client. and these days one
of the best ways to do that is to submit an
h264 compressed project that you can send
to them via Vimeo or any one of a number of
client sharing services that are emerging
out into the world.So, you can do that directly
from inside of DaVinci Resolve itself you
don't have to use a 3rd party app, and you
do this from the deliver page, so if I go
into the deliver page, this is where I render
projects out of Resolve.
Now you can see clearly this is very much
a work in progress.
I only have a few clips there graded.
So, if I want to quickly export an H264 project
all I need to do is go over to the render
settings and at the very top there is an easy
setup pop-up.
All I need to do is change it to video sharing
export, and automatically all of these settings
are set up to export H264.
I'm rendering the entire timeline as a single
clip, in the Quicktime format, using the H264
codec.
Now, I can choose to change the resolution
if I wanted to drop this down to720p resolution
for example I could do that right here.
I'm gonna leave this as 1920 the framerate
I can't change although I could round up to
24 if I wanted.
Now, while were looking at this shorter list
of options were gonna take a look at the file
area the render to field shows me the current
path where what I am about to render is going
to be written.
If I want to change that path, I simply click
the browse button and choose a new location
on whatever disk I want to render to for the
output to be saved.
So, that rounds out all of the basic controls.
However, if we wanted to exercise more control
over the data rate, there is an expanded set
of controls we can turn to, and to do that
I can just jump into the Advanced tab.
I now have a data rate control and I can choose
to restrict this to any data rate I may want
in kb/s so I could set this to be 20,000 if
I wanted.
I also have the ability to change the ability
to to change how keyframes are handled automatic
vs. every twelve frames.
I'm gonna leave this to automatic.
I also have the option to turn frame re-ordering
on or off.
In most cases you'll want to leave this turned
on.
If I keep going down, you'll notice that I
have this audio section I definitely want
to export audio, it defaults with this preset
to the AAC format, with best Quality.
I do have the option of changing my data rate,
in this case I may want to max it to 320 kb/s
for my stereo output.
I can choose how many channels of audio I
want to render.
Two in this case for stereo.I can also choose
my audio bit-depth.
This project is 16 bit.
At this point, the only thing I want to check
is to go down into the timeline and make sure
that the whole timeline is in fact selected.
If I have any doubts, I can zoom all the way
out to see that yes the entire timeline is
currently selected for output.
Once, I have all of this setup, I click the
Add Job to Render queue button and this whole
setup appears as a job in my render queue.
And when I'm ready to go, all I need to do
is click Start Render and I'm off to the races.
I hope you found this useful, if you want
