Francois Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi, if I'm not mistaken (I have made several tests) when playing a version (either by playing it directly on Ftrack on in a session review), the file played in the web player is not the original deposited file but the mp4 preview version encoded by ftrack. I suppose that the aim is to save bandwidth, but this can be inconvenient as a client will not see the original file but a lower quality one. Would this be possible to chose which version is played, both directly in Ftrack and in a client review? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattias Lagergren Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi Francois, This is done both to save bandwidth but mostly to ensure that the video is encoded in a way that can be played back from a web browser. You can enable so that the clients can download the original version: http://ftrack.rtd.ftrack.com/en/stable/using/reviewing/client_reviews/using_review_sessions.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This so obvious I don't know why I didn't thought to it. Thank you for your answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
