where to set default video bit rate

Post by LouisHartlooper »

DCP-o-matic 2.18.18 seems to lack a possibility for setting the default video bit rate. Or do I overlook that? Is the only way to adjust video bit rate when setting the DCP settings for every project again?

Hi,

The idea with 2.18.x is that you make a template - so make a new project, set your desired bit rate, then do "Save as template", choose "Save as default", and from then you should see the bit rate in each new project.

That makes sense. We'll adopt that way of working. Thanks for the reply!
