About output video quality and size
- The output video edited with the DJI Fly app will be in 1080p or 720p, Level 4.0 high profile “.MOV” format regardless of the source.
- If you edit the file “downloaded” to your smartphone, the output video bitrate will be approximately 17Mbps. And edit a file that has not been “downloaded”, bitrate will be approximately 11Mbps. Files that have not been “downloaded” will have reduced image quality and skipped frames.
- The file size of the output video edited with the DJI Fly app is reduced to about 80% to half of the original video due to the reduced resolution and bit rate.
