Video to follow:

...and here is the promised Morro Bay video. As I said above, it was shot at 4K 60fps, ISO100, SS 1/120, with an ND16+CPL filter. Rendered using iMovie.

https://photos.smugmug.com/Air-2-Work/i-XVQXqpV/0/0ad11a2c/1920/MB-701-4K60-1920.mp4

TBH the video looked a bit low res to me a bit fuzzy especially full screen.
By right clicking on it I was able to download it.
Here's the info I got.

MB-701-4K60-1920.mp4 84.6MB

Dimensions 640 × 360
Codecs H.264
colour profile HD (1-1-1) Yes my info spelt colour right :-D
Duration 14:20

Maybe a setting in iMovie perhaps you need custom.
My gig videos I do(HD not 4K) would be about 1.5-2GB out of the camera maybe 10% less after going through iMovie.

anyway just curious as to why it's only 640 X 360 Unless you did it lower res. so Eric can view it ;-)

That doesn’t make sense as it (the original as linked via SmugMug) was shot at 4K (3840x2160) the file size is 3.14GB.

The second rendition was rendered at 1080 60fps (1920x1080) with a file size of 2.75GB.

I had not created a 640 x 360 84.6 MB version! It was never that size, and I had no intention of sharing something that small. I have a feeling that your right click download at those dimensions might be a local issue for you.

SmugMug does render the 4K video as a 1920x1080, and should be downloadable at those dimensions.
I get the same file as whiskey dave, and/but it plays in full resolution
in the browser (Safari) . It also downloads in 640x360 in the app 4K
Video Downloader. (which works at least some of the time in capturing at
HD or UHD.)

Thanks for checking.

From my point of view as long as it is viewable at a perceptibly decent resolution all is well. To have the full fat 4K 6+GB file available for sharing and/or collaborative work, using Adobe CC would be better than a system such as SmugMug.

Even going to YouTube the highest resolution needed would be 1080, and who would want to deal with the bandwidth hit and time it takes to download a 6+GB MP4 file.

For me that means I might as well just stick to uploading 1080 files to SmugMug, since if the 4K files are only available to those using a SM sharing link at 1080 I am wasting time doing that upload. After all, I have the original fat files.

I get that resolution, 14:19 long, but only 715MB.

Interesting.

There seems to be little point in uploading 4K files to SmugMug then. Thanks for that confirmation.

Perhaps you need a better network.

the network is very clearly not the problem.

Could you please explain how you are so certain, as well as your
definition of "network".

he was able to read the post and reply, therefore the network is
functional.

Functional as to a few bits, but not necessarily a hi-def stream.

he has what you call a hi-def stream, a topic in some of his other
threads.

what you don't realize is that he has all sorts of problems nobody else
has and refuses any advice how to fix it, or at least diagnose what the
problem actually is.

since you can't see the obvious: he is the *only* person who can't see
the video, which means the problem is at his end and entirely of his
own doing. put simply: user error.

And you didn't define "network".

the meaning is well understood.

In other words, you don't know how to define it.

I do see the "obvious". My definition of network includes the modem,
router, cabling and/or WiFi and the client used to show the video, photo
or text. Something was likely out of order, be it hardware or software.

And could have been the feed! Stuff happens even with broad broadband.

If you are able to download could you please put in the link. Possibly
we're talking different streams.

Oh, the Smugmug streaming is just fine. I'd still like to learn why I
can't download at the resolution you've uploaded!

And the 4K version would be worth the trouble if viewing on a large 4K
TV, otherwise, overkill.

Thanks, Duck!

I drove down to Morro Bay today, it was a lot less overcast that for my last trip, so here here are some of the results of today’s flight around the bay.

First two 180º panoramas, which will be followed later, once it is rendered, by some video shot at 4K 60fps with a Freewell ND16+CPL filter @ ISO100 & 1/120 SS.

Nice. Tip: edit these down to about 4-6 minutes (tops).

Yup! the largest resolution SmugMug seems to permit for sharing is 1920x1080 regardless of having uploaded a 3840x2160 4K file.

I just checked Adobe CC, and it seems that with that I can share a link, and I can allow, or not downloading to another CC subscriber’s Creative Cloud. As to what that might deliver if a right-click download from a browser is tried I don’t know.

Anyway, I am uploading the 4K file to CC now, and I will post the link later.
