Hey everyone,
Happy to be part of the community. I recently bought the new Mavic 3. I’ve been flying the Mini 2 for some time now, and I felt like I wanted to splurge and upgrade. I’ve noticed something odd with my footage on the new M3 though.
5K in H264 drives my MacBook crazy. H265 seems fine at that resolution though. But that resolution in H264 causes the video to freeze up, stutter, lag, and all kinds of slowness. H264 doesn’t seem to cause issues in 4K or in DLog. Any ideas?
Also, what settings would you recommend for best footage? The M3 has the following choices:
The choice between MP4 or MOV (MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, HEVC/H.265)
The choice between H.264/H.265 Bitrate: 200 Mbps
Resolutions available:
5.1K: 5120×2700@24/25/30/48/50fps
DCI 4K: 4096×2160@24/25/30/48/50/60/120*fps
4K: 3840×2160@24/25/30/48/50/60/120*fps
FHD: 1920×1080p@24/25/30/48/50/60/120*/200*fps
Color: Normal or D-Log
Video Bitrate: CBR or VBR
My MacBook has the following specs:
MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2020, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports)
2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
32 GB 3733 MHz LPDDR4X
Intel Iris Plus Graphics 1536 MB
Thank you so much for your time and help.
