Hi @Paccyd33,

Thanks for the message. Did you transcode to HEVC? If so, your subscription may not support that if you are using the "Starter" version of Rush (the free one). Try exporting to H.264 or ProRes LT. The latter has large file sizes but usually works great. I hope the advice helps.

 

Thanks,

Kevin
