How to deactivate QuickTime Reference Movie?

PostTue Mar 07, 2017 1:55 pm

Hey Guys,

I have a big problem with resolve right now. Everything I deliver is somehow a Quicktime Reference Movie. I am not able to work with those files in other programs. So how do I deactivate that in Resolve?

Take a screen shot of your delivery panel selections. What are you trying to wind up with?

A Reference file is an import process, not a render process.

It's not outputting QT reference files it's just that in CS6 which he is using it reports them as QT reference files under 'Properties', but the files themselves aren't QT Reference files.

In Premiere the file references back to itself and if you move the file and then load it back in it works fine from the new locations.

A real quicktime reference weighs 7 to 8 KB (this is a pointer)
