Disk space used on deliver

PostSat Jan 29, 2022 5:44 am

What is the deal with this? I have about 1 hour of braw on a 1tb T5 at 2.7k. Comes to 25% of the drive. After exporting it to H.264 2k, the disk is going to be 203% full???? What kind of sense does that possibly make? It should be about 35% full.

I've always found those kind of estimates pretty useless. I just ignore them.
My Biases:

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
