I just change the ProRes preset to profile: 2. https://sourceforge.net/projects/ffmpeg-batch/ Didn't try as i found this program that is really easy to work with and seems the results are ok. But i'll try to compare the size of the same file transcoded to prores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If two programs make files of differing sizes, one of them is wrong, either by using the wrong ProRes flavor (LT, HQ, etc) or it's not really creating a proper ProRes file.

The program i was told to use is ffmpeg based too and the gui is really easy to use, even batching, so i cross fingers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leslie Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 hope i don't go too far off topic hit a bit of a rock, put the free resolve on my laptop, however the free resolve doesn't like gopro format. footage was from a 4 silver, yet to try my 6 but i'm not holding my breath. googled it and its a known issue, the workaround is to transcode it to something else first from what i have read yet to try it out. hopefully i might get my bmp4k today which will gift me a full version of resolve and a whole new camera ecosystem to learn with its own interesting quirks and nuances no doubt.

thephoenix Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 i've just seen that premiere offers to transcode files when you create a project, it offers prores as well as dnxhd and no quality loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it will be veey little loss, really not a big deal at all. It sounds like a really neat feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thephoenix Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 actually it is not what premiere says, my bad it says "match source" but you can also choose differents parameters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thephoenix Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 so i just did my transcoding using shutter encoder. from h265 fuji xt3 to dnxhr-hq files. had 471 files total of 91.5go it ended 773go took around 2.5hrs two images that i captured using vlc. i chose a frame that is quite difficult because low light and some noise. don't remember the settings when shooting, where can i get that ? mediainfo doesn't seem to give me the iso and aperture. first is dnxhr second is h265 i notice i slightly different color tone on the cheekbone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VLC is notorious for having no color management. If the color different is apparent in Resolve, then it might be that problem with the way XT3 files are tagged. I haven't looked into that issue yet, but there are a few threads here talking about it. My guess is either VLC is showing the wrong colors on the file, or it's this tagging issue. It is also possible that Shutter Encoder is actually changing the color in your files in a way that doesn't have anything to do with color space tagging. It doesn't seem likely, but it's possible. 10 hours ago, thephoenix said: don't remember the settings when shooting, where can i get that ? mediainfo doesn't seem to give me the iso and aperture. Hmm, I looked in ffprobe, but I don't see that particular info. I suspect that the XT3 doesn't record ISO and aperture information for video files.
