Hello, I am trying to render/export a 18288 x 57 animation for a stadium fascia board but I can not get the size to go past 16384.

Is there a way to export this at the correct settings? Is it my computer that the problem?

I was shown a file that was an H264/mp4 with the correct settings so it can be done.

iMac Pro 2017

Radeon Pro Vega 56 8 GB

5120 x 2880 Display

Thanks for your help!

Are you certain this needs to be H.264? Usually boards that size get split into multiple smaller files. H264 is constrained by the Profile and Level options. Prores can export at that resolution no problem. Can they accept other formats?

Yes, but they are trying limit space, have uploads quicker and since the quality didnt seem to take a noticable hit they asked me to do this in H264. I could do 1/4 size but because of camera breaks and score displays that would cover up the animations it's easier just to do the full size. I am sending Pro Res files now.

Another vendor gave them an H264 at the correct size so it could be done. Just don't know how.

Thanks for the reply Jeff.

You might be able to open up that other file in an info program like Mediainfo and find out how they encoded it. I'm guessing they used ffmpeg since you can basically force it to use any resolution you specifiy. Or if you're allowed to post the file here, I can take a look. I'm pretty curious myself at this point.
