I just finished my first project shot entirely with ProResLT as the acquisition and editing Codec. Now it is time to Backup my project and I decided I didn't want to backup 350GBs of data for this complete project. However I do like to save my unedited project files for future use in other projects. So I decided to Transcode all of the footage to H.264 at a lower BitRate to still have the footage in a usable format but not take up so much space.
I brought all of the files into AME and selected the "High Quality 2160 4K" setting. I then customized it by bumping up the VBR rate to 100Mbps Target and 200Mbps max. Hit go and walked away for a couple of hours.
Now I just looked at the Finished files and found that they exported at "2720x1530" Resolution. There isn't even a 2.7K Preset, AND that isn't even really 2.7K, so what the heck happened here? I just wasted about 2.5 Hours of Transcode time that I have to do all over again, whenever I figure out how to make it actually 4k.
