===== 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.
