*** ### Preset Categories & When to Use Them #### 🟢 CVP\_MASTER — High-Quality Archive Exports Use these when: * You’ve finished a project * You want a clean, lossless version * You may re-edit the project in the future These exports are **large file sizes** but preserve maximum quality. **Presets:** * `CVP_MASTER_FULL HD 16:9` — 1920 × 1080 * `CVP_MASTER_4K UHD 16:9` — 3840 × 2160 * `CVP_MASTER_4K DCI` — 4096 × 2160 **Best practice:**\ Store these in your **Master** folder from the Project Folder Template. *** #### 🟣 CVP\_SOCIAL — Social Media Exports Use these for: * Instagram * TikTok * Reels * Shorts These presets are tuned to: * Hold up against platform compression * Maintain sharpness and color * Avoid over-compressed uploads **Presets:** * `CVP_SOCIAL_HORIZONTAL 4K 16:9` — 3840 × 2160 * `CVP_SOCIAL_HORIZONTAL FULL HD 16:9` — 1920 × 1080 * `CVP_SOCIAL_VERTICAL 4K 9:16` — 2160 × 3840 * `CVP_SOCIAL_VERTICAL FULL HD 9:16` — 1080 × 1920 *** #### 🟡 CVP\_YOUTUBE — YouTube & Web Uploads Designed specifically for YouTube’s compression pipeline. Each resolution includes: * **Faster Export** → quicker turnaround * **Slower Export** → higher fidelity (recommended when time allows) The slower presets effectively process the video more thoroughly to preserve detail. **Presets:** * `CVP_YOUTUBE_4K UHD – Faster Export` — 3840 × 2160 * `CVP_YOUTUBE_4K UHD – Slower Export` — 3840 × 2160 * `CVP_YOUTUBE_FULL HD – Faster Export` — 1920 × 1080 * `CVP_YOUTUBE_FULL HD – Slower Export` — 1920 × 1080 **Recommendation:**\ If possible, upload in **4K** — even if your timeline is 1080p — for better compression results on YouTube. *** #### ⚪ CVP\_TRANSPARENT — Alpha Channel Exports Use this preset when you need: * Transparency * Overlays * Rotoscoped elements * Motion graphics exports **Preset:** * `CVP_TRANSPARENT (ProRes 4444+)` This exports with an **alpha channel** and is ideal for compositing workflows. *** ### If You’re Not Sure Which Preset to Use A quick rule of thumb: * **Final archive?** → CVP\_MASTER * **Instagram / TikTok?** → CVP\_SOCIAL * **YouTube?** → CVP\_YOUTUBE (Slower if possible) * **Transparency needed?** → CVP\_TRANSPARENT You can also refer to the **PDF guide** included with the download for a quick reference. *** ### Best Practices * Match the preset to your **sequence resolution** * Don’t stack unnecessary export effects * Keep color management consistent * Test one export before batch exporting Used correctly, these presets eliminate most quality complaints. *** ### Summary The Chat Video Pro Export Presets: * Prevent low-quality uploads * Remove export guesswork * Improve platform compression results * Save time on every delivery If you care about how your work looks online, these presets are essential. *** **Next:** Learn how these presets integrate with the [**Project Folder Template**](/workflows/project-folder-template.md) for a clean end-to-end workflow. #### --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
