Exporting a 4k timeline into 1080p on FCP for Kajabi
Hi everyone,
I'm creating a course with Kajabi, which recommends that you upload videos as mp4 files.
I filmed my entire course in 4K, wanting to future proof the course, but not realizing that Kajabi recommends 1080p uploads and has a limit of 4GB per video. Some of the modules are 30+ minutes, which means that when I export them, they are well over Kajabi's 4GB limit. I have a few options and I'm not sure which are best.
- I export them as 1080p. In this case, would I copy the 4K timeline into a 1080p timeline and then export? Or just export from the timeline directly but change the export settings to 1080p? I'm willing to do whichever option will cause the least amount of image loss.
- Export them in 4K, but compress them using Handbrake or Compressor. Again, I'm trying to avoid image quality loss, so I'm not sure if this is the right option either.
Any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated!
