directly output fullhd proxy

Ello everyone,

i have a pretty big demand, and i dont know if any cheap codec can handle it. Fot the moment i know that h264 dosen’t.

I output from a nuke script 4k exr sequence. Trough that nuke script, create a .mov, 1920*2160, or the other way so i got my 2 1080 render in one .mov ready to read on a 3D television.

My main problem, i cant fin a codec that can render more than 2000*2000 (and that read the video in realtime).

Do you guys have any idea ?

Thanks,

Fred

Maybe PRORES? (I think you’ll need a fast disk too.)

pretty sure jpeg or mjpeg should handle that, but i can’t say for certain - so i’ll just ask if you tried that?

MJPEG Works, but it’s slow. The video is laggin on a core i7 16 gig of ram. I was seeking for a codec more like avc 1
<

Does avc1 created by other software work on these images? My impression is that avc1 uses the same compression as H264, so we may be able to get this working if we choose the right H264 settings. That’s something we’d need to change on our end, though.

Are you using QuickTime? Is using another video player an option? I tried playing back a 1920x2160 @ 24 fps MJPEG video on my machine (my processor is equivalent to a Core 2 Quad). In QuickTime I get around 11 fps; in VLC I get a full 24 fps.

No it dosen’t.
The big problem with avc1 is that you are limite (like h264) to a 2000*2000 resolution.

Compression is great, but i need 3840*1080, with is full hd side by side video, that i read into a stereoscopic player.

Right now i am trying another alternative.
We saw that our network support realtime playing of 2 proxy of 1080P. (the 2 eyes).
Now im trying to tell draft to create a video for each of the proxy(2 output). But draft only render one video.

Do you have any idea why ?

Also, for you question about our player. We use, quicktime, vlc, and Tweak RV

The first thing that comes to mind is they may be accidentally written to the same video file.

Are the two eyes being rendered in a single Draft job, or in separate Draft jobs?

If you are using a custom Draft script, would it be possible for you to please me send a copy of it?

Actually, draft dosen’t seem to put the other eye in the process of video creation. What i have is a nuke script that renders me my 2nd eye. I right click on the job, i go to script and i submit it.

Here my draft template. Its pretty much the dnxhd one with some modification

Sorry, I seem to be missing your template script. Could you please post it again?

Is your script for the 2nd eye submitted as a separate Deadline job from the 1st eye?

Okay i just realise that your forum does not allow upload of python script.

Thanks! Please see this thread for a possible solution.
