Project Operations
Creating New Project
This section explains how to create a new project when or after EDIUS starts.
To create a project, set a project format according to the format for the export destination, and register it as a project preset.
Project presets are registered in advance, depending on the application. If this happens, select a project preset according to the format for
the export destination.
Creating New Project Presets at Initial Start-up
When you start up EDIUS for the first time after installation, configure the format of the project to create, and register it as a preset.
1)
Click [New Project] in the [Start Project] dialog box.
f The [Create Project Presets] wizard will start up.
2)
Check more than one item for [Size], [Frame Rate], [Bit] (in this order), and click [Next].
f Configure the video size and frame rate, and video quantization for the project format to create with EDIUS. Multiple check boxes can be
selected for each item.

f Set a video quantization bitrate to 10 bits to edit with 10 bit precision retained. However, it may turn out to be the 8 bit precision depending
on the effects you use. The formats that can be imported with 10 bit precision are Grass Valley, HQX AVI, uncompressed AVI, AVC-Intra,
QuickTime, Grass Valley HQX MOV, and XAVC. The formats that can be exported with 10 bit precision are Grass Valley HQX AVI, AVC-
Intra and uncompressed (v210) AVI.
