Hello people, hope everyone is well ! Just wondering if there is a way to increase max bitrate while exporting using Compressor. the maximum i can get is 50 mbps as compared to Lumafusion where i can choose uptp 150 mbps.

Sometimes i am shooting at 150 mbps and I really want to retain the quality. Is there a way of exporting at a higher bitrate using compressor ? Many Thanks in advance

What codec are you trying to transcode to? What preset are you using?

Hi Ben, Its the HEVC Codec. Attaching a screenshot as well :)

You may see that bitrate is maxed out at 50,000 kbps

Apple Devices has spec limits. Use video sharing 4K.

You are using Compressor? You’re using the Apple Devices preset. The preset has specification limits for Apple Devices. There is a section in Compressor presets for Video Sharing. The first one is 4K. I assume that’s what you want because of the screenshot you showed. The Video Sharing 4K preset is not limited the way the presets for Apple Devices are limited. Change the codec to H.265 and see whatever you want.
