Open exr bit depth from Redcine Pro x 14

[Marcus Struzina]

Just wondering What the bit depth or how to set it for Open Exr files exported from Redcine Pro x 14.
First time using Open EXR any recommendations regarding compression would be appreciated.

Cheers

Hi Marcus,

With EXR you get a 16 bit half float per channel. The range I believe is +/- 65504.0. You can't set this manually, it's automatic.
For the compression options, we only provide access to the lossless options. You'll have to try them to determine what works best
for you.
