Export to v210 (mov)

MOV v210 codec hint: AJA Video Systems Xena. Fully lossless codec, supported by Premiere Pro as “Uncompressed 4:2:2 10-bit”. This can save CPU resources on export (when storage doesn’t matter).

Add:

,
  {
    "text": "v210",
    "encoder": "-movflags write_colr -c:v v210 -pix_fmt yuv422p10le",
    "ext": [
      "mov"
    ],
    "transcode": "aac -b:a 320k -ac 2",
    "os": "windows",
    "minSize": [2,2],
    "maxSize": [15360,8640],
    "doNotScaleFullColorRange": "always"
  }

to your encoders.json file. If you’re on Mac, you’ll have to copy from one of the ProRes entries for Mac. I just did a test run on Windows and it worked.

if you are on MacOS you need to change the entry from @ForSerious post, for it to show up on your TVAI UI codec list

"os": "windows",

to this:

"os": "osx",

Side note. isn’t v210 is Uncompressed video? which is different to lossless compression.
Uncompressed video generates huge file size.
for example:

  • 24-bit, 480p @ 30 fps: 24 × 640 × 480 × 30 = 221 Mbit/s.
  • 24-bit, 720p @ 30 fps: 24 × 1280 × 720 × 30 = 663 Mbit/s.
  • 24-bit, 1080i @ 60 fps: 24 × 1920 × 540 × 60 = 1.49 Gbit/s.
  • 24-bit, 1080p @ 60 fps: 24 × 1920 × 1080 × 60 = 2.98 Gbit/s.
  • 24-bit, [4K UHD] @ 60 fps: 24 × 3840 × 2160 × 60 = 11.9 Gbit/s.

I don’t want to think what will happen to my HDD after 5 min of 1080p 60fps video, 111 Gb file
and 447 Gb file for 4k 60 fps

Yes, but I need this for low resolution processing. Alternate to 16-bit tiff.

or lossless codec/encoding. best of both worlds. size and quality
