      Try H.264 thats mp4 format and you shouldn't get any problems with it, if you are exporting using after effects render there isn't H.264 format, so I would suggest you download adobe media encoder and render it that way for the most efficiency

    Thank you for this option info. I don't really think 8mm footage can be in genuine 4K. But the improvement in clarity is there. Thanks a lot.

    Quick question, when I used detail preserving upscale I try to do velocity with time warp but timewarp ruins it?

    • @SmertimbaGraphics
      @SmertimbaGraphics  Před rokem +3

      No it doesn't ruin it. Do upscale first, then render the video, then import an upscaled rendered video and apply effects to it, that way it's quicker to preview

    I want to change 1080x1440 to 1440x2560 but why does the width go wider? I understand the height stays the same which would be black bars. But in Vegas when I changed, it only had black bars on top and bottom not the sides? Can you understand?

    • @SmertimbaGraphics
      @SmertimbaGraphics  Před 3 měsíci

      Maybe because the difference in pixel aspect ratio, 1080x1440 is non square pixel ratio while 1440x2560 is square pixel, you might need to sacrifice a part of the footage while scaling to fit then

    How to upscale AE Project from 1080p or 720p to 4K?

    • @SmertimbaGraphics
      @SmertimbaGraphics  Před 2 lety +1

      You can upscale a photo or a video when rendering with an upscale applied.
      You would have to create a 4K composition and then upscale the footage to match with the composition size😊

      ​@@sethtag8523Rendering in After Effects and importing the AEP file to Media Encoder makes it take longer if you use other filters in it. Also if you don't have an Nvidia GPU that is at least 20 series with good VRAM it will take longer. For me my 3090 can take 60 hours when upscaling a video from 1080p to 4K in Media Encoder using different filters will mean each flame has to be up scaled and the filter you set to it will have to be rendered.
