Auto FFMPEG render

This option lets you create deliverables using the files in the project, including the video file. A typical example would be a video with burnt-in subtitles. In order to use this you need.

  • A video uploaded to the project and set to Standard
    • This can be done directly in the Filezone 
    • It also needs to be linked to the same node/part as the job that the translation is linked to
    • Typically, this video should be a hi-resolution file without burnt-in timecode or text
      • The simplest way to attach such a file to the project and work in the editor is to use a Media upload job and select a conversion preset in the upload dialogue
      This will automatically store the original file with the project and create a lo-res proxy for the editor to use, giving them both the correct settings (This can also be done directly in the Filezone) A node with a subtitle linked to it
        I.e. a subtitle file created by online editor A Render preset
          This determines the details of the output file.
            Text styling, video resolution and container, audio format, etc  These are edited and created under Tools & Data and require some indepthin-depth knowledge to manage A job with a subtitle linked to it, i.e. any job which uses the online editor

            The two styling options support:

            support
            • ASS: Italics, Raised, Bold, Underline, Coloured text
            • SRT: Italics, Raised, Bold, Underline

            By combining these three, Plint can automatically create deliverables as a job.

            The same tools and logic can also be applied to render videos "ad hoc" from the page "Generate video copies", which can be access from the project bar.
