I’m trying to convert a HEVC codec to MP4 as it won’t play in native windows apps. I’ve managed this a few times in the past without issues and looking through instructions I seem to be doing everything the same way – but for some reason this one isn’t converting.
If I use the H.264/265 convert/save presets and keep original video it either comes out exactly the same as the original, or reduces to 700mb and an awful quality – which I think is based on the greyed out bitrate being just 800.
When I untick the keep original video and manually set the bitrate it sometimes comes out but still greatly compressed as it seems the max bitrate is 32k? Is that correct? The original file is over 40k.
I feel like I’m missing something obvious here, but can’t work out what. Has something changed in a recent VLC update? Is there a factory reset option in case I’ve messed up any settings? If not could anyone recommend another program?
