Puzzle #53 · Standard · 5 params

H.264 · Bitrate 35M · 1080p · PCM · MOV

The scenario

Blackmagic RAW to H.264 proxy for multicam live event editing in DaVinci Resolve. 35 Mbps for smooth 8-track timeline playback, PCM 24-bit to preserve the board mix audio, MOV for Resolve timeline compatibility.

The answer

Video CodecH.264
Bitrate35M
Resolution1080p
AudioPCM
ContainerMOV

The command

ffmpeg -i input.braw -c:v libx264 -b:v 35M -c:a pcm_s24le output.mov

Why

Blackmagic RAW (BRAW) uses a unique partial-debayer approach where the camera does the computationally expensive part and stores a partially processed raw file. This makes BRAW files 3-5x smaller than Cinema DNG while preserving full raw flexibility.
