Per your request: I recently tried to edit some drone videos in Davinci Resolve in 3840X2160 HD for eventual upload onto RUclips. The videos were shot at 50fps because I planned to use some slow motion from the videos in the RUclips upload. When I began the edit in Davinci, I set the timeline for 50fps to allow for smooth video at 24fps for the slow motion video. When I finished the edit, I exported at 50fps in 3840X2160 HD for the RUclips upload. After I viewed the private RUclips upload, I was dismayed at the quality of the video and discovered that RUclips had downgraded the resolution to 2560X1440. That is the highest resolution RUclips will allow for a 50fps upload. I then tried to export the edited video from Davinci at 24 fps, but Davinci would not allow me to do that because I had set the initial fps on the video at 50fps. That is the fps I HAD to export the video at. The video remains on my "workbench" until I can discover how to export it at 24fps to allow viewing on RUclips in 3340X2160 HD. My question for you, and possibly the topic of a video on your channel, is what type of workaround is there for this situation. How can I edit a video in Davinci with a relatively high fps (>=50) for quality slow motion and export to a more standard fps (e.g. 24) to enable 3840X2160 HD viewing on RUclips and other mediums? Thank you for reading this reply and for all of the GREAT education videos you have on your channel. They are the BEST.
@@FoolWithACamera0 Are you outside the US? If you're shooting in 50fps for slow motion, I'm guessing 25 fps is a standard frame rate. I would set that as your project frame rate. Your 50fps video will playback smooth on a 25fps timeline. (note: in your current project you can turn on stacked timelines. Then go to file, new timeline. When you create your new timeline, uncheck use project settings. This will allow you to create a new timeline with a frame rate different from your project settings. Then you can copy and paste everything you've worked on from your previous timeline into this timeline with your new frame rate. You will now be able to render at this framerate.) Now, by default your 50fps footage will playback in real-time on your 25fps timeline. You can then slow the footage down to 50% speed on this timeline, while maintaining smooth slow motion.
@@videographyessentials Thank you so much for your detailed reply. I am not very familiar with the rabbit warren of features in DR, so your suggestions will likely take me some time to use, but it will be a good learning experience. Again, thank you for your quick response and all of the time and effort you put into your RUclips channel.
