hi all, ive tried using shotcut and kdenlive but the outputted file ends up being huge. i have a single image and want to put audio on top (releasing a song) but these programs end up making video files where they render the same image on each frame and the files end up being huge. what is the best way to achieve my use case of making a single photo music ‘video’ that doesnt degrade the quality of the image and can be posted to youtube?
tl;dr: need a still image video (image is lossless) where rhe imsge isnt reduplicared and has audio
Can you intentionally set various bitrate (VBR) with a big difference, like from 16mbps max to 1mbps min? Constant bitrate can be your problem. Premiere had this on media export menu, I can’t remember where others have this. And, if you want to upload it to youtube, see what size it has on a private upload by downloading it - they reencode every video themselves to their uniform standard, so maybe you don’t even need to bother with that.
