Now these settings work fine for me. Try using SRBG for export gamma if you want as that’s what the Instagram API converts it to when uploading. But to be honest I don’t see a difference on my end. P.S. I meant 25000-50,000 KBS. Not 2500-5000 my bad.. Comment down below if theres anything you’d like to add!

Nice video. What settings do you suggest under the color management in 'project settings'?
Jamie - all services actually make a copy and transcode to their specs- not sure people are aware of that - The resolve render has nothing to do with the final version that any of these services final codecs are. They also give specs as to include all aspects - one of them being upload time and space. I am a bit on the side of " use the size and codec that gives the cleanest starting file" The compression for me is as little as possible, regardless as to what they want. The best advice is to use a 20 second video and keep pushing the bits up until you can't see it stop getting better. At that point you will hit the maximum quality and then there is no reason to go higher. I can't post a link here, but a long time ago a guy upload the uploaded file result a thousand times - to make the point of what a copy of a compressed file actually does and how bad it can be. Really interesting. The guys name is Marques Brownlee - you can do a search for it on youTube.
Aw yes I did see that! It’s crazy what the final result was. Well that’s interesting. So I guess there isn’t a blanket export render out of DR that works for all?
just wanted to say, I see you! All those little elements and sound effects to make this stand out and keep us entertained. I appreciate it and hope this encourages you to make more DOPE content.
Comments like this really mean a lot. I appreciate your attention to detail. I spend a lot of time on those things so it’s refreshing. Thanks a ton bro! 🙏🏼
Okay, so I’ve watched over 10 videos on this topic now and the reason why is because every single video I watch, each TH-camr has a different “Restrict to” setting. You say in your video to Restrict to 5,000 Kb/s. Meanwhile, another TH-camr says to restrict to 45,000. And another says choose Automatic mode. Where are you guys getting your numbers? Idk who to listen to at this point.
If you right click the timeline in the media pool and click Timeline settings, you can change to vertical there but also make the global change to fill all clips, that way you don't need to resize/change the clips on all the settings in the timeline. With a lot of my jobs now I just duplicate the timeline/create new timeline, open the timeline settings, check vertical and change to fill clips and it's so much easier and faster than zooming each clip or selecting them and changing settings individually
1:35 You also can switch to vertical at the "Cut" tab. Find in the right top corner "Timeline Resolution" of your "View" screen so you don't need to make an additional timeline and you can further edit and shuffle the same project for horizontal and vertical
this isn’t shade, just correcting some things for anyone scrolling: - folks DO NOT change your timeline framerate for the sake of a single upload 🤦🏻♂️ set your timeline frame rate based on the *project needs*, not a specific upload. They can all take standard frame rates. - 29.97 and 30 are two different technical considerations and not interchangeable or “close enough.” Shoot in your project frame rate, deliver in that frame rate. - The videos are going to get compressed on upload either way, so if you start from a mezzanine format like ProRes HQ (where possible) they’re only getting *harshly* compressed once instead of exporting to H264 and compressing twice. Uploading to TH-cam in 4K will get you better compression, and high-value creators get preferred compression too. - 2500-5000 is starting REALLY beat up, you can comfortably do 20,000-80,000 for TH-cam uploads, maybe 20-30k for social apps. - Your color space tag information is lacking context. You don’t simply set the tag to 709A if you want to ‘see it correctly on a Mac’, it also needs to be *graded* to 709A in that case, which may already be happening but should still be overstated. It’s also not just for Mac viewing, 709-A should be used when delivering *for web* out of Resolve on a Mac. It will display correctly in QuickTime, but that’s because quicktime is wrong and not to be trusted for color. 709-A is a workaround from BMD to circumvent apples nonstandard gamma curve which is also shared by HTML5 (safari and chrome). 🤘🏼
I chose 29.97 because that’s the frame rate from my source footage. You’re wrong about the color tag info. As I’ve confirmed this with forums and colorist professionals.
@@JamieFenn This makes it sound as if you just didnt need to this time but if your FPS is too different from 30 then you should change it. Simply put, you're directing people to change/consider changing timeline FPS based on an upload. The color tag info I gave is correct, I am a 'colorist professional'. I think you skimmed and didn't catch the nuance of my feedback. The "so it works on Macs" indicates you just kinda got told what to click and don't really understand the WHY of that advice. The action itself is not wrong in this singular instance of overlapping variables, which is why I said lacking CONTEXT, to people who need it, especially on something as commonly misunderstood as color spaces.
Although I agree that most things are not needed to change because the services actually make a copy of your video, and transcode almost everything to their needs, regardless of what is rendered by the uploader. But- rec709-a is not a color space. The part about grading to it is nonsense. Quicktime is not wrong- another misstatement. Quicktime is color managed, as is youTube. The problem is Apple colorsync- Video files are tagged with NCLC tags, which define specific standards rather than including a unique color profile alongside the video. Exporting to a known standard profile is fine, but there’s a problem. The problem is not quicktime, it is the MAC OS colorsync that manages video files on a Mac. The tagging of a normal output for all software that is considered correct for rec709 gamma 2.4 is to tag the file as 1-2-1 - but don't know why but the industry uses NCLC tagging information. The three numbers tell the OS the color Primaries, The transfer function and the Color matrix. So 1-2-1 according to the NCLC definitions is that * the first number ( 1) = ITU-R-BT.709 ( industry standard ) * the second number (2) = Unspecified", * and the last number (1)= BT709 The problem arises that even though the industry adopted rec709- gamma 2.4, there never was a defined transfer function for it. So Apple Colorsync applies the first part of the transfer function which is approx. gamma 1.95 but because the display transfer is "undefined " technically - it doesn't apply any display transfer. Davinci Resolve is not displaying a color managed viewer - so seeing it with rec709-a won't do anything - so no need to grade to it. If you add it, anywhere in the process except the output tagging, it may default to your systems default to rec709 and that could be any gamma - not what you want to do. Jamie has it correct here because the tagging only tells Apple colorsync what to do and leaves every other media player to show as normal.
@@JimRobinson-colors - Rec709-a is not a color space - correct, it's a gamma curve. I don't think I said otherwise. - By "Grading to it" I just meant grading for the 709A curve rather than starting in a common curve (ie 2.4) and transforming later. So, not nonsense. - Quicktime is untrustworthy, this is known. Fine for review that's not-color critical. check out Screen from Video Village instead. - I said what I said with full awareness of NCLC tags and how they work. It's literally what motivated the creation of Rec709-A. - Correct, Resolve is not color managed viewer in the GUI, but for those grading on their GUI monitor, on a Mac, they're essentially grading under that 1.96 curve without realizing it because Resolve necessarily functions under macOS color management. breakout box or nothing. - As I said before, what's here is not WRONG (in regards to the gamma tag), in this one type of instance, it will yield correct results. It's just a misleading oversimplification is all. And that concludes my once-annual random TH-cam comment! Cheers yall.
Hello, where do i get these titles and the button assets in your video at about 0:18 to 0:25? Do you sell them or is it in one of the envato or motionvfx packages? Thanks for answering and keep up your amazing work!
Guess what saw ur videos one week ago and u became my favourite youtuber not lying your content is just always meaningful makes me watch every single i see all are in ky playlist
@@mhmditanii yes. Create a new timeline, uncheck use Project Settings so you can set a Timeline framerate under Format. After that, go back to the old timeline, CTRL+A to select everything, then just CTRL+C and CTRL+V to copy them to the new timeline.
It all traces back to television broadcast and frequency interference, When color broadcast TV started in the 1950s they had to change the frequencies to accommodate. Same reason 24 fps from cinema films were changed to 23.976 for broadcast. The fps difference now only causes problems when syncing audio with cameras - as we can't see the difference but the tiny bit of missing frame will add up over long period of time and make the audio drift off and not sync.
Thanks for this great video. I have an issue following along. 1 .when I go to change the project frame rate, it’s greyed out, can’t change. 2 when I go to the edit tab after the changes all the clips are already full frame in the vertical format, . Any suggestions? Thank you
Really helpful.... like I am new to davinci and decided to become freelance for instagram reel ...... thinks we're going good but I am not able to make things in reel formate ... thanks 👍👍
@@JamieFenn I did and tbh still a lil confused. I’m shooting with a LUMIX G85 on a Sigma 45 Lens with Windows. The last vid I saw said change the gamma to Rec709 and times the FPS by 2000 to get the KBS (for example 60 FPS = 120000). Long story short I’m hoping your method works better cause I didn’t see much difference with that one
Hey Jamie Fenn. Thank you so much for this helpful video. I am having trouble opening the video once I've sent it to myself over WhatsApp. The system says that it is an unsupported file type, but I export the video as MP4 with all the settings you've recommended here in this video. Any advice?
Every time I restrict the quality to below 10000 Kb/s the video that comes out of Davinci Resolve just looks really really bad. I always have to export higher than 10000 in order to get a good quality Video! I've seen so many recommend 2500 or 5000 but I'm wondering why it does not work ^^Any suggestions?
A popular English Resolve yotuber once said: fps x 2 x 1000 so 30 fps x 2 x 1000 = 60000 Kb/s for social media just be aware of the file size limits for instagram or at 1080p fps x 1000 to start with
@@DKPaddler yeah the file sizes tend to get pretty high then. I uploaded the same reel once with different render qualities and did not see a significant loss in quality when uploading with 15000 or 40000 or 60000. but below 10000 was always bad
When I right click the media in the media pool there is a long drop down list and nothing say anything about timeline settings. I am using davinci resolve 19 on windows 10. I set my SHIFT P Project settings, but couldn't find timeline settings. Is this the same? Esstenially all my videos/photos used were 4k and i am trying to scale it down to upload to instagram. Would 60frps shots be a issue for instagram uploads? why should I shoot in 30 or less? Is there a setting option I should to edit for the lower frame rates. I cant seem to change it at the end on the delivery tab or the gear icon at the bottom right. Time Frame Rate can not be edited , but playback frame rate can be edited. P.S. I tried to export a 4k video with the new settings and when I uploaded on a desktop the video worked perfectly fine, but when teh same file was use via smartphone it got all pixalated again. I made sure my mobile data was off and was only using wifi...any reason for this?
Hi tysm for your tutorials but I have two questions. Is it alright if I put no limit with the kbps in DaVinci if I encode after with media encoder? and if a post video on tiktok with my pc there is no parameters with the "highest quality" so does this matter? And if yes, should i post with my phone and not with my pc ?
I'm sorry if this is a silly question - but at 2:02 I did this, but my image just gets shrunk down and only fills out the middle third of the vertical window. Instead of just cropping the sides like yours does.. Any ideas? I have selected all the same settings that you did in that Timeline Settings window.
Jamie , thanks for this video. I just want to know how to animate logo which to done for Instagram and tiktok. I can able to do only in and out animation. Not any animation inbetween. But you added some shakes in logo after in animation. Could you please share insights on it. Thanks in advance
When i upload to instagram or youtube shorts in rec709 result is bad color, but when i rendering in sRGB the color so great. Is it just my eyes or is it true?
im shooting on opengate 6k when I import into a 1080x1920 vertical timeline in davinci resolve does that immediately compress the video image quality or not?
Thank you, Jamie. I've had a couple of videos shot horizontally that I tried to upload to Instagram, but they just didn't show up. There was no error when trying to upload them (from my Windows desktop computer), but they just never appeared in instagram. Don't know why :(
In theory if you directly transfer it to your phone and upload to social media it should be the same quality. (Check the file size on your phone compared to the video on your phone after you transfer it)
Ok I have a question, everytime I export 1080p vertical the video looks bad. Even with the export settings you listed. I find myself always resorting back to Final Cut for exporting 4k with H264 better quality and I use 2038x3064 resolution (I know those numbers are off but you get me) and the quality comes out great with minimal compression from platforms. I’m struggling to figure out how to get the same export quality in davinci the way I do in Final Cut. I don’t like 1080p quality for me at least. Is it possible to upscale the image in davinci and still keep the same crisp look in davinci the way I can in Final Cut? Or do I need to transcode h265 files to prores? Any tutorials you can recommend would be appreciated
sorry, but I don't find the "allow high-quality uploads" in TikTok. The interface I'm looking at on TikTok is entirely different from what you are showing. Would appreciate any help. Thanks! Also telling you that it's not so easy to follow you because you are talking very fast and your visuals are very fast too. All that is making difficult for some of us to benefit from your beneficial information you are sharing. Thank you for your attention and patience 😊🙏
Pro Tip 1: you can change the Timeline settings in the Edit page. You don‘t musst go to the media page. Pro tip 2: the quickest way to set your footage to fit for the vertical format is also the timeline settings.
5000 kb/s is utter trash after upload to instagram with fast action clips. Upload 4k 30 and 45-50 kb/s export from Davinci and insta process it way better than trying to find the optimal 1080 "x" mb/s value to avoid degradation. So far from 100+ shorts the 4k 30fps 45kb/s works best for me. For 1080 30fps it is 16000 kb/s with talking head videos etc. (quicktime h265 when uploading from normal iphone) To sum it up - everyone has different settings that works on their account, its crazy and noone is right, you have to experiment and find out what looks best after upload. + never upload youtube short from phone app, always browser. Tiktok dunno, f that :)
Now these settings work fine for me. Try using SRBG for export gamma if you want as that’s what the Instagram API converts it to when uploading. But to be honest I don’t see a difference on my end.
P.S. I meant 25000-50,000 KBS. Not 2500-5000 my bad..

Depends on video resolution and video length to find the sweet spot for file size and quality. 15,000 -20,000 is a good all around number for 1080p

@@JamieFenneverybody need it and you’ve got it 🙏😉
Thanks man. Can you do one on colour management setttings for Facebook amd instagram when using mac
Same settings
Hey Jamie Fenn. Thank you so much for this helpful video. I am having trouble opening the video once I've sent it to myself over WhatsApp. The system says that it is an unsupported file type, but I export the video as MP4 with all the settings you've recommended here in this video. Any advice?
That is weird! I would make sure the file is below 2GB.
thank you :)
You're welcome!
Love you bro you helped me so much !
Glad I could help
That's exactly what I needed, thank you!
You're welcome!
Every time I restrict the quality to below 10000 Kb/s the video that comes out of Davinci Resolve just looks really really bad. I always have to export higher than 10000 in order to get a good quality Video! I've seen so many recommend 2500 or 5000 but I'm wondering why it does not work ^^Any suggestions?
I do 16000 for social media
@@A1Bokeh Same here. I do 14000 but definitely >2500 or 5000. not sure if my render settings are correct though 😅
A popular English Resolve yotuber once said: fps x 2 x 1000 so 30 fps x 2 x 1000 = 60000 Kb/s for social media just be aware of the file size limits for instagram or at 1080p fps x 1000 to start with
@@DKPaddler yeah the file sizes tend to get pretty high then. I uploaded the same reel once with different render qualities and did not see a significant loss in quality when uploading with 15000 or 40000 or 60000. but below 10000 was always bad
I’ve found it depends how long the video is. I should have clarified that a bit more. 🤦🏻♂️ yes 10000 or even up to 20,000 is ideal
Thank You for the help.
You're welcome!
How if I upload by meta business suite ? Does it affect the video quality ?
When I right click the media in the media pool there is a long drop down list and nothing say anything about timeline settings. I am using davinci resolve 19 on windows 10. I set my SHIFT P Project settings, but couldn't find timeline settings. Is this the same? Esstenially all my videos/photos used were 4k and i am trying to scale it down to upload to instagram.
Would 60frps shots be a issue for instagram uploads? why should I shoot in 30 or less? Is there a setting option I should to edit for the lower frame rates. I cant seem to change it at the end on the delivery tab or the gear icon at the bottom right. Time Frame Rate can not be edited , but playback frame rate can be edited.
P.S. I tried to export a 4k video with the new settings and when I uploaded on a desktop the video worked perfectly fine, but when teh same file was use via smartphone it got all pixalated again. I made sure my mobile data was off and was only using wifi...any reason for this?
Hi tysm for your tutorials but I have two questions. Is it alright if I put no limit with the kbps in DaVinci if I encode after with media encoder? and if a post video on tiktok with my pc there is no parameters with the "highest quality" so does this matter? And if yes, should i post with my phone and not with my pc ?
I export in 90000 kbps and send to social media no problem.. top quality, i tried exporting in less but anything bellow 40000 for me looks like crap.
Yea see pinned comment. I didn’t mean to say 2500 to 5000
@@JamieFenn thanks for your tutorials man. 👌
So to edit 4k 120 i need the studio version?
Im using m1 ultra and I coming from premier
I think so. I've used studio for years so I can't keep up with what's in the free version vs studio.
@@JamieFenn thank you for such an amazing channel !
I'm sorry if this is a silly question - but at 2:02 I did this, but my image just gets shrunk down and only fills out the middle third of the vertical window. Instead of just cropping the sides like yours does.. Any ideas? I have selected all the same settings that you did in that Timeline Settings window.
I don't hav the option to tick "use vertical solution" is there an alternative way to get a vertical layout?
Thank you so much bro, this is superr helpful. Where do you find that facts sheet at 1:03?
Good teach Thanks😊
You are welcome
Jamie , thanks for this video. I just want to know how to animate logo which to done for Instagram and tiktok. I can able to do only in and out animation. Not any animation inbetween. But you added some shakes in logo after in animation. Could you please share insights on it. Thanks in advance
I tracked those overlays for that. The animations were already there.
What is the difference between 4k timeline and export in fhd. And fhd timeline and export in fhd?
When i upload to instagram or youtube shorts in rec709 result is bad color, but when i rendering in sRGB the color so great. Is it just my eyes or is it true?
Do you adjust your gamma too? I find 709 + gamma 2.4 works well.
Waqas qazi did a test though and found sRGB and H.264 work best as far as colors.
I haven’t noticed a difference either way. But that’s just me
I noticed he didn’t compared the actual upload from Instagram though.
@@anthonysyfilms yes i did, rec709 more darker than sRGB when i uploaded to shorts or reels
GOAT
what should I restrict Quality to when I have an approx 20 minute long TH-cam video?
I have a video on best export settings for 2023. Make sure to check it out!
Thanks
why you cant posted videos on instagra at 60fps?
Go ahead
im shooting on opengate 6k when I import into a 1080x1920 vertical timeline in davinci resolve does that immediately compress the video image quality or not?
Thank you, Jamie. I've had a couple of videos shot horizontally that I tried to upload to Instagram, but they just didn't show up. There was no error when trying to upload them (from my Windows desktop computer), but they just never appeared in instagram. Don't know why :(
Very good 👏👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Do you NEED to make a vertical timeline? Or can you simply have one that's exclusively vertical?
Either works.
Thanks buddy
No problem 👍
somehow i cant change the frames to 29.97.. Even my workspace looks completely different.. But thanks for the video anyway!
Everyone talking about the transition at 0:34 but how did you do the effect + transition at 0:03 ?
Want a tutorial?
@@JamieFenn That would be amazing =)
What about when uploading it to social media thru the phone? Doesnt android bring down the quality compared to iOs
In theory if you directly transfer it to your phone and upload to social media it should be the same quality. (Check the file size on your phone compared to the video on your phone after you transfer it)
what app are you using?
Davinci resolve
0:34 tutorial please
See my new video I posted today :)
Why don’t I have the cog in the corner? I literally can not get to render settings becusse of this.
0:33 WTH is this transition..😯
See my new video I posted today :)
Merci je vais essayé tout ça
How do I get the videos on my phone without loosing quality? Or can I somehow upload from Pc?
Airdrop, Google drive, Dropbox. Any of those will work.
@@JamieFenn Thx 🫶🏼
Ok I have a question, everytime I export 1080p vertical the video looks bad. Even with the export settings you listed.
I find myself always resorting back to Final Cut for exporting 4k with H264 better quality and I use 2038x3064 resolution (I know those numbers are off but you get me) and the quality comes out great with minimal compression from platforms.
I’m struggling to figure out how to get the same export quality in davinci the way I do in Final Cut. I don’t like 1080p quality for me at least. Is it possible to upscale the image in davinci and still keep the same crisp look in davinci the way I can in Final Cut? Or do I need to transcode h265 files to prores?
Any tutorials you can recommend would be appreciated
Keep it at 1080. Just increase the bit rate
It's not letting me right-click the timeline. When I do, nothing pops up. Pleaseee help! :)
sorry, but I don't find the "allow high-quality uploads" in TikTok. The interface I'm looking at on TikTok is entirely different from what you are showing. Would appreciate any help. Thanks! Also telling you that it's not so easy to follow you because you are talking very fast and your visuals are very fast too. All that is making difficult for some of us to benefit from your beneficial information you are sharing. Thank you for your attention and patience 😊🙏
awesome
Pro Tip 1: you can change the Timeline settings in the Edit page. You don‘t musst go to the media page.
Pro tip 2: the quickest way to set your footage to fit for the vertical format is also the timeline settings.
Slog3?
Always 🤘🏽
5000 kb/s is utter trash after upload to instagram with fast action clips. Upload 4k 30 and 45-50 kb/s export from Davinci and insta process it way better than trying to find the optimal 1080 "x" mb/s value to avoid degradation.
So far from 100+ shorts the 4k 30fps 45kb/s works best for me. For 1080 30fps it is 16000 kb/s with talking head videos etc. (quicktime h265 when uploading from normal iphone)
To sum it up - everyone has different settings that works on their account, its crazy and noone is right, you have to experiment and find out what looks best after upload. + never upload youtube short from phone app, always browser. Tiktok dunno, f that :)
See pinned comment
@@JamieFenn thats a pretty big difference, telling people to do 2500kb's haha
Agreed
which encoder? h254 or h265 for quicktime/iphone render/upload?
