After Rendering the file size is always small

PostThu Aug 11, 2022 10:13 pm

I rendered a project just like I always do, but for whatever reason the file size came out to be only 1MB while most of my projects are 5-8GB. I don't know what is happening and I have a deadline for this project tomorrow.

I've tried changing the render codec to H.265. I've tried to change the format to quicktime. I don't know what else to do.

I'm on Davinci Resolve 17.4.6
Windows 10
GPU: 3080RTX

Never mind, I figured it out. I didn't have enough space on the hard drive. I just wish it would say an error or something to let me know. Sorry about this guys

Common theme with resolve, complete lack of error messages. Try to import 10 bit h.265 in Windows Free, just turns red, never gives you an Error message.
