Estimated File Size Not Showing

[romealstrong]

The estimated file size in my render settings isn't showing. My guess is that the file size is too large? The whole thing takes about 2 or so hours to render. I've attached screen shots. My video is 3D and from After Effects. I am using the C4D renderer. Thank you.

Hi Romealstrong,

The estimated file size in my render settings isn't showing.

That option (Estimated File Size) is available for only a few formats/presets, not for all.

We deliberately removed it from some formats as we were getting a lot of complaints about the accuracy.

You can raise a feature request to get this option here.

Thanks,

Kulpreet Singh

ProRes never shows the estimated file size. H.264 always does for me, however.

How do you unmark the correct answer? I meant to check it for kulpreet, no offense jeff.

Thank you both for replying. I get it for neither ProRes nor H.264, which are the only codecs I use.

[romealstrong]

nvm figured it out.

Hey Kulpreet, 

The feature request link you've attached is a link to other softwares. How Can I get this file estimate reattached to my premier. Or can is it somethign i can just turn on through the settings?

Kind regards,
