Hi All

I am making an animation and rendering at 2400X1600 its a short fly in 50 frames @ 24FPS. When I playback the animation it says in the info its 720X480 I have checked max settings and octane settings all are 2400X1600. Is there a maximum animation size for octane? Hope someone has the answer! ;)

cheers

I tried 1280x720. It works fine. I don't think there is such limits.

I guess this depends of your output file format. What is it?

What's that?
If you mean DV, then it doesn't support resolutions greater than 720 (PAL).
Also you never ever want to render directly to compressed format. Only for previews maybe.
Render out as image sequence and do your compression later.
