A variable bit rate allows Vegas Pro to increase the bit rate for a certain bit of rendering, so as to allow for better compression when necessary, while maintaining a low filesize, due to it not being necessary to use such a high bit rate for larger blocks of similar data. Selecting a constant bit rate of 20mbps is going to grant you a very sharp video, but with a larger filesize than would be had through a variable bit rate of 10 average and 20 maximum. Traditional bit rates for YouTube are 5-20mbps.Ī variable bit rate versus a constant bit rate is less about which is better, and more about how much time you have and how efficient you want your render to be. A rate at which how many bits can be used per second of footage. "60" for FRAPS recordings at 60fps, for example.
Simply type the framerate at which your footage was recorded. Sony Vegas Pro does support 60fps renders, though it is not listed here! Unlike the custom value option for resolution, instead you'll be typing in the value in the box itself. Be sure to select an option that best matches your source!įramerate is just as important as resolution when it comes to matching your footage. While this list does not display 4K resolution, (3840x2160) Vegas Pro does allow you to render it! Simply select "(Custom frame size)" and type in the values!įrom this dropdown menu, you'll be selecting the resolution for your footage. Never higher! YouTube has Native Support for 4K, so if your footage is in 4K, be sure to select it as its resolution! Your resolution should always be the same, or lower than your source footage. You'll be making a compromise between video quality, and filesize.
