Mp4 Encoding Setting Issue

Hello, 
I noticed that changing the setting in Video quality / Bitrate, the size of the exported file is always the same. is it a bug?

These are the main settings:  https://gyazo.com/d50a8ee558b19434f7f77e5caa47d9a5
And this is the box of values I try to choose, but all generate an 8mb file: https://gyazo.com/f4c50d216fc6c2ad1e765c67e7e78c06
I use the latest  versio 7.30

Thankyou,
Fabio

Appears to be working.  Pay little mind to the estimated size.

Right-to-left, the results of an AVI as exported at 1280 x 720 Mp4.  Both source and result used the H264 codec.

default (file size - 0 compression),

medium (average - 56 compression)

low (smaller - 27% compression) file size settings

Hi

With mp4 export the indicated estimated final video size doesn't change  with the Quality setting (so it seems) but does so if the resolution in the export settings is altered.  I exported a short mp4 clip at each of the quality settings and the size of the exported clip remained the same.

As Borate says I would ignore the estimated value as it using Lossless export setting  will reduce it but going back to Auto detect setting does not return it to the former value so it is unreliable. Nevertheless all my exported mp4 files ended up the same size and quality despite the setting.

Exporting as an avi  the quality settings work as expected. (See Borate's post)

Hi   Hmmmm...Version 7.30

mp4 export of an  Mp4 clip 17.4 MB gave these results...Estimated 12.01MB 

Settings H264 Lossless Resolution Auto detect

  • HQ..... 16.8 MB 
  • DQ......16.8 MB   
  • MQ.....16.8MB
  • VLQ....16.8 MB........

Similar  results with another clip.........

Changing that quality setting made no difference, (and estimate size remained the same as well (and too low.)

Here are the export windows for HQ and Very Low Quality.....in both the estimated size is 12.01 MB

Changing the resolution alters the estimated size though (logically).
