Export Video

You can export a video file from your project. This allows you, for example, to share sections of intermediate results or finished videos with clients or other users.

The Export Video function exports the video and a stereo audio signal that are enclosed between the left and right locators. This allows you to export a specific range or your whole project by setting the locators accordingly.

Videos are exported in the following format:

  • Container format: MP4

  • Video compression codec: H.264 without long group of pictures (Long GOP) sequences

  • Resolution: 1920 x 1080 px (Full HD)

    Important

    Video with a lower or higher resolution than Full HD is upscaled or downscaled on export.

  • Frame rate: Same as the project frame rate

  • Audio compression codec: AAC

  • Sample rate: Same as the project sample rate

    Important

    Video export supports sample rates of 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz only.

  • Bit depth: 16 bit

You can only add a stereo output channel to the exported video file. We recommend that you route all mono, stereo, or multi-channel channels that you want to export to a stereo output channel via send, and select this output channel in the Export Video dialog.

If you work with 2 video tracks in your project, the video on the lower track in the track list is exported. If you want to export video that is positioned on the upper video track, you must mute the lower video track.
