Hello

In the PR Pro beta 14.2. When exporting using VBR 1 pass the slider for maximum bitrate is missing now. WHY #1? Only TARGET bitrate slider is there. Does this have something to do with the new hardware encoding? If I choose vbr 2 pass, max bitrate slider is there but I can software encode only with vbr 2 pass. WHY #2? Thanks {excited about this new release btw]

#1 ... that is a limitation of the hardware accelerated encoding process at this time.

#2 ... because no other app can do accelerated hardware encoding in 2-pass encoding either. I don't think that is possible.

Thank you for the reply. Maybe you can help once more.

Does that mean that a hardware encode set at VBR 1 pass say.. 24... is actually a CBR of 24? Or is it still VBR with unlimited max bitrate? Will this cofiguration change after the beta? I am slightly confused. Thanks for your help.

14.2 is not beta anymore: went  live 2 weeks ago.

Make a test export and check the file with Mediainfo: then you will know.
