Hi,
So even accounting for 60FPS 4K HDR, which I of course know is a lot of information, the files are still huge. They are .mov instead of .mp4 containers for one (does that matter?).
When I export one unchanged and inspect it using ffmpeg, the video stream is in the order of 50,000-90,000 kb/s, which seems pretty high to me. Converting it using the libx265 encoder, preserving all the quality that is possible with the right settings, the file size was 20 percent of the original. Both are HEVC
Anyone know why these video's are stored like that? Is Apple even aware of this, or is there a specific reason anyone can come up with?
Thanks!
