===== Media: What are the file rendering specifications for a multi-monitor array? =====
When rendering your final files, use the following settings:
* Constant Bit Rate (CBR) - 10-50 Mbps depending on the quality you'd like. The higher the bit rate, the larger the file
* Render at maximum depth
* 1 key frame spacing
* H.264 codec
* Keep your file names simple, just add a -# to the end of the file name
* #@PPP@# does not support H.265 nor ProRes encoded files
Each player looks for it's particular file by the -# incorporated into the file name. Example, player #1 looks for any file with ''-1''. Use NO SPECIAL CHARACTERS OR BLANK SPACES! Here are examples of bad as well as properly formatted file names:
**Bad File Naming**
foobar ver 2.mp4
foobar-ver2.mp4
**Proper File Name**
foobar_ver2-1.mp4
Player #2 looks for ''foobar-2.mp4'', so a 4 player array would require you to render 4 files:
foobar-1.mp4
foobar-2.mp4
foobar-3.mp4
foobar-4.mp4
USB thumb drives are the easiest and fastest way to load media. See the section [[:faq:media_loading|Media: How do I load media on to the player?]] for more information on this method.
