Wanted: smallest files with alpha

Hi

What are currently the smallest files with alpha that can be created in Media Encoder?

I need them as proxy files with alpha in PP.

(I know how to make an ingest preset etc.)

Many thanks in advance, David

EDIT – it should be a very edit-friendly codec 🙂

HEVC (H.265) should be able to preserve Alpha Channel and is much smaller in size and bandwidth.

Thanks for the tip - i didn't even know that!

I need the files as proxies in PP, so inter frame would not be ideal. But there are INTRA frame types of h265, right?

...

EDIT – Does not seem to be suitable for my purposes (in PP). See here in the forum.

Would ProRes 4444 in smaller frame sizes solve your problems?
