The Video Export dropdown lets you choose the type of video to export, pass through the source video without re-encoding, or disable video export entirely.

Frame Settings

  • Frame Rate Displays the frame rate for the exported file. (Not adjustable)

  • Field Order Sets the field dominance (Progressive, Upper, Lower). Availability depends on the selected video codec.

  • Resolution Displays or sets the output resolution. If adjustable, aspect ratio settings will also become available.

  • Dither Controls dithering behavior when converting between integer and floating-point values.

  • Color Space Sets the output color space. Availability varies by codec.

  • Color Level Sets the output color level (e.g., Full Range, Video Range). May not be available for all codecs.

  • Maximum Gamma Precision (Slower) When enabled, improves gamma accuracy—especially useful when converting from HDR to SDR formats.

    May result in slower export performance.
