PavleDeoVR It has nothing to do with the content. It’s large because it’s 1. 8K 3D 60 fps and 2. I encoded it with ProRes 422 because compressing the footage over and over again with heavy lossy compression is a good way to get unacceptable compression artifacts, which are especially unacceptable in immersive and stereographic video.
(Even video that looks fine compressed in a flat format is not going to look as good when projected in a spherical or hemispherical format and small artifacts become huge issues since compression algorithms are not aware of the final projection format for the video, so something small in the distance in a flat video that gets blocked out by compression is suddenly reprojected 10x as large in the final display.)
Always master at the highest quality, then compress for the final delivery formats.
I can’t control what deo does with their compression, so this is the proper workflow for maximum quality in the final streamed video.
I will note that especially as you expand DeovR into Apple Vision Pro this issue is going to be more and more problematic because the master content files are going to be even larger.
Nobody has reached out about an FTP solution yet, that would be the best option for now since the website uploading isnt quite robust yet and the dropbox feature doesn’t work at all.
