@@hughhou at 04:08 you are pointing to what should be an embedded video link, but there is nothing there. Do you have a link to share? I would like to import my Insta360 X3 5.7K footage into free Davinci Resolve 19, to edit
Amazing depth and generosity my friend, love it. I mix reframe and other footage and the timeline resolution hack to handle my 5k x3 footage inside a standard timeline is freaking genius. Wow and thank you
Best tutorial yet, I am glad to have an updated workflow. Some of the stuff I used to do is not working anymore (Facebook Encoder) and can be complicated (Ambisonic w/ Headtrack Audio) so I have just been doing basic edits in 360 studio but now I feel like going back to the more professional workflow.

Just.... Wow. You are the 360 🐐This video feels like the early days of learning 360 video editing as there is so much to get into! Kimchi must be quietly proud 😊
Haha thanks! I am trying to let no rock unturn. Then build the next tutorial upon this. There are more Resolve 360 and VR180 update coming soon as Blackmagic is gear toward their immersive camera release - it will soon take over Premiere and FCP as the software for all thing immersive and 360. A lot of new updates are coming.
I subscribed to your channel when I found your review for the TTartisans 7.5mm f2.0 and I have been following your content since then. Now I'm looking for a 360 camera to give a different look to my content and these videos and reviews are very very helpful. Without any doubt, the best 360 VR focused channel on the internet!! Greetings from Spain for you and Kimchi 😊😊
Oh yes 5.7K still a bigggg improvement. Before people are doing it in 4K without telling the viewers.. At least now we track down the bug and fix it lol. No more complaint in Resolve - it is the best reframe software hand down!
@@hughhou also enjoyed your qoocam review but concerned it might be too heavy for the unicorn mount :) - I do a lot of snowboard filming! now having stitching issues after 19.1 upgrade...
Whoa you covered really a lot in this video! Some stuff I learned along and some new stuff. Even if one doesn't have a 360 cam there's lot of value found here. Thank you very much! :D
Oh I am so glad. Yes, my plan is to use 360 editing to get people to learn the basic / advance animation in Resolve. It is so powerful and for some reason, lots of tutorials on the Internet does not go deep. Lots of the stuff I also learn by doing and reading the forum. It is no fun. I hope this and upcoming series can save everyone headache and give back more time to go film instead of sitting in front of the computer lol.
@@hughhou awesome, man! Yeah seems like a lot of work! Editing in 8k and 360 demands more tricks and Power, I'd say so all the stuff one can learn by your videos will also make the editing of regular film so much easier.. Also for ppl with no high end pc's.. That example of transforming 8k into 1080p f.e... Dope!
Amazing content, thanks for these valuable guide. I switched from Insta360 X4 to Qoocam 3 Ultra, reframing was a bit of a letdown in Qoocam Studio compared to Insta, now in DaVinci there are a lot more possibilities. Will you also be making a guide / workflow on how to shoot/import/edit/export Qoocam 3 Ultra footage for 360 8k 10-bit HDR color graded viewing? TYIA!!
I have one in my original Q3 Ultra review on Premiere. But Resolve is so simple - when you set HDR color space and resolve wide gurm color management - it just convert everything for you to REC 709 or whatever output space you decide. Literally like 3 second tutorial lol. I will make a short soon
@@hughhou For sure! Resolve 360 workflows are not for the squeamish. And we're not even talking 360 stereoscopic!🙃Props to you for making Resolve approachable!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I am entering now into the video editing world and I learn a lot from your vids! I am using an Intel i7 12700k 3.60 GHz, 32GB RAM DDR5, nVidia RTX4060 and a Corsair MP600 SSD, and it is extremely slow with the 8k workflow you suggested. The performance monitor is not showing any resource at 100% usage, so I do not understand where is the bottle neck. What component do you think should be improved? I do not want to use FullHD resolution workflow, because in a few years from now it will look obsolete and I wish my video to live a little longer than that. Thank you in advance for your help.
Yes, you should try to use full resources. I think the GPU is the bottle neck. I never use 4060 or anything with less than 8G vram. Resolve is a GPU heavy application
Thanks for the great content again. I have yet to try it out once I find the time. One thing I did not understand from your video is why you use portrait resolution? Only for social media export? Or is there another purpose?
Yes for social media like UA-cam Shorts, IG and TikTok since this is most people do reframe for - for their social media. For other video, I think 360 video and immersive format is way cooler. But this workflow also work with 16 by 9 up to 4K!
I really feel you should have linked Andrew Hazelden in the description. Most people will not know how to connect with him. "We are not here for credit" but credit should be given.
Great video. So clear and the example work well with great results. I have often wondered if there is a way to make a 3d video with a 2d camera. I'm wondering if anyone has developed or considering a process that eg. one flies a drone through the same landscape several times and software / ai assembles a 3d video. Something for KartaVR?
Very good video, one question, after using KartaVR and putting the image as you want, can normal tracking be used without any problem or can it give an error? Thank you very much in advance.
You probably want to "pre-comp" all the KartaVR effects or even render in place everything before use tracking. Then tracking just work like normal video. The idea in VFX is always "render in place" before you do another GPU intensive task - like tracking. As long as you use ProRes as suggested in this video, you can render as many pass as you want to speed up your process (if not, it will be a long wait as your GPU might run out of VRAM for doing so many things at once). I hope this help!
Hello Hugh, great tip to level 360-video in Qoocam studio. But too bad you cant set keyframes in 360 editing mode. Hopefully Kandao can add this in the future.
Why you need keyframe in 360 mode? Any keyframe you should do it in NLE - as the smoothing is better. Keyframe to only keep the camera straight not keyframe pov (which make people sick in VR). BTW, we are coming to PARIS at Oct!!
@@hughhou Because the horizon isnt always off in the same way. You can straighten the horizon with the grid on moment A and it doesnt have to be straight at moment B. I think keyframes in 360-mode would be very useful. It works the same way with levelling with Davinci resolve fusion.
Master Hugh, the imitators will have to study this new tutorial in depth lol!!! Master, don't forget that we have doubts about how to use the FB360 Encoder for Muxing, because the FB360 Encoder does not accept ProRes files. We do not want to use mp4 with H264 or H265 codecs, so all we can do is export ProRes 8K and publish it on UA-cam as you taught us in the previous tutorial. In this case, our step with Reaper and FB is dead! Big hug!❤❤❤
Mmmmm, you don't use FB360 for UA-cam release tho. On Meta is H265 only so FB360 work fine. For UA-cam is only 4-ch you can use Premiere or just mux them together and use the Google Spatial Injection tool. I will figure out a more streamline Resolve workflow now Resolve 19 support ambisonic audio finally!
@@hughhou I miss FB360 running in Reaper in third order! If we use ProRes export in Premiere, we are restricted to 4 ch. And if we use H265 export for FB360 Encoder we have a loss of image quality. Does H265 also have a limit of up to 60Mbps? Maybe this fouxi ambisonic in Resoove is the solution! Thanks master!
Thank you! The fusion for speed part finally means i can edit 360 on my laptop. Are there any quality downsides at all to doing it that way? Why not set the project to that resolution in the first place?
Hi, I have tried the faster work flow part in the fusion, it does play back super smooth but I have a problem, I have the clips not making a full globe, edges not meeting, just wondering if you might have had this and if so how did you or have you corrected it. many thanks
Hi really good video, I watched the original about a year ago when I first got my 360. Could you make a video of your a basic workflow, for example , I have mixed footage, some from my phone and some from my 360. how do you do your workflow, do you have a couple time lines in the same project one with the 360 footage and then one with normal footage, then edit them both then combine. Would be really good to see how you combine the two and im sure many other people would also like to see one too thank you
Thanks again for an awesome tutorial. I work with dogs, and I'm trying to figure out the best work flow. Often I film with just one 360 camera, but I would love to have the possibility to edit the photage as a multicam clip. So I can easily switch between the dogs, or me. Also I was wondering if the Karta VR has a autotrack function you can use to reframe?
Hi Hugh Hou :) Could you give me a quick recommended tool list for 3603D so I know what to buy and learn: 1) Recommended Upframing Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model? 2) Recommended Upscaling Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model? 3)Recommended Denoising Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model? Thanks so much on advance 😍
@@hughhou I would also be highly interested in an objective comparison of tools and models for 360 video quality improvement. :) Thank you a lot for your effort!
Hugh you are the man. Awesome tutorial but I´m struggling with the VR viewer update. When I want to update it it says you have reached the limitation of DR "Buy now". The timeline is also not possible to change to 8k
What software would you recommend for improving 360 images? Neat Photo for denoise and Topaz Photo Ai for upscale? Or something else? And what for editing? Thought about just using Davinci also for photo editing since it brings everything needed for 3603D and others don't... Thanks a lot in advance :) I will buy your recommendation today if you answer. :)
Great tutorial I wear 2 hats one is 360 video editing the other is hospitality and catering instructional design with a focus on culinary arts. Can you do a tutorial on editing filming and editing cooking demos your contribution would be a great contribution to lecturers and food photographers. 🙏🌟🌟
Is there a difference in quality from the insta360 & qoocam software to ProRes ? Should all insta360 x4 user use Qoocam export tool instead ? I've also had multiple clip to export, and it asked me more question in my export than it did for you. Ask me for direction lock, denoise and a few others... Maybe I have a newer version of insta360, or it because I'm on windows, or when you select multiple clips, you get a different option set... I let them all at the default, and let my computer export them and we will see what happen.
Oh no, this is just a good hack. But if you know how to adjust level, you can just go from Insta360 Studio to Resolve as Resolve in kvrViewer or ReframeUltra can also adjust level. I do that for Premiere edit as Premiere latest 2024 having some issue on VR rotate sphere and I need to use Qoocam Studio to save my a$$.
Have hoped for the spatial audio tutorial you promoted even before the last Reframing Tutorial. Or some news on which tools to use with which settings for increasing framerate or resolution, comparison of doing vs the other first etc. :/ I am waiting now since months and freezed my whole private pipeline since upscaling / upframing is mich money energy wise for me. I bought Topaz since you recommended it some time ago to upframe 3603D or upscale, but now you say it creates artifacts that we can't see in your videos. So what now...what tools to use, what process and settings to follow. :/
Anyway a great tutorial, learned a lot. Thanks! :) Sadly not what I need but I hope you will come up with some more of your really worthful insights about spatial audio and Ai treatment for Pro 2 footage etc. soon. 🤍
Hey Hugh. I think I have a beginner question.... maybe will be helpful to more people. I have KvrViewer on an Adjustment Clip. I have reframed the shot. Now I wish to ad some speed ramps to it, but when I mess with the Retime Frame, it does no affect the adjustment clip as well, so my KVR reframe looses its link with the clip. Any tips? Thanks a lot if you have the time.
It is kinda like in Premiere, I will retime it first - nest or pre-comp (right click and comp the clip with retiming effect in it, or better, render in place as retime effect is very GPU intensive). If it is harder, just use the kvrViewer on the clip directly - adjustment layers is a best practices for long video but does not mean you need to follow it all the time. Both ways work
@@hughhou Really appreciate the fast response! I tried reframing and after making a Compound Clip to add after the Retime. OH of M1 Pro got very slow... I will try to retime first as you suggested... and also add music for only after doing the reframing. I believe is a much better workflow. Thanks a lot!!!
Response: Even your gut feeling would help a lot! No need to fill in the settings if you have no idea, but the software would help a lot 😍 1) Recommended Upframing Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model? 2) Recommended Upscaling Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model? 3)Recommended Denoising Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model?
I still think Topaz Video AI is pretty legit right now: bit.ly/3H7OUEd - but there are other more professional alternative I need to test and have not get the chance too until my next project.
Hi Hugh, I have watched this video about a dozen times on the faster work flow. No matter what I do I end up with holes in the clips in fusion. Im using a insta 360 x3, I have tried changing the resolution and stretch to the edges but no luck, please help me as when I do play it back, even with the holes/ chunks missing from the clips it plays back super smooth as you said it does in the video. Thanks again
@@hughhou don't know if it's just me 4:11 didnt appear here 622 is not clickable (same as other before 4min) ... may be it's not suposed to? but i'll find it.
I work with 3D and I'm producing 360, ask me a question please, the Quest 2 glasses have a maximum resolution of 1832 x 1920 for each eye, if I'm going to create a 360 stereo top and down I have to generate it with the full resolution of 3840 x 3840 ?
Quest 2 the best resolution will be 5760 x 5760 top and bottom. So Pro 2 with 60fps 5760 x 5760 will get you the best resolution in high refresh rate. I hope it help!
Still waiting for that premiere pro video you were going to do lol... In all seriousness though. If you ever get time, could you add master class for those who use these as intended. 360? I dont use 180, I dont use reframed... I use straight 360 and as you know I hate the quality out of it. =( You said you had some tips and tricks you were putting together a few months ago but I guess you're still working on that premiere pro video. :)
That is what I used on a daily basic - but some people argue Topaz AI is better. But let me take more time to do a correct comparison to draw my conclusion.
Thanks! :) Will be very interesting@@hughhou I personally have not achieved good results with Topaz for Denoising yet but I might have did too much...need to play around with it a bit too
X4 owner not used to Davinci and while this video is great I can't pass the fact it's all look complicated with many many steps from start to finish. The learning curve is harsh. I wish we could tell the program what camera we have and 80% of all thoses settings would be done automatically. Until then, thanks for this tutorial.
Fair. This is more for professionals that want to get every single pixel quality out from X4 and get rid of those blurry complaint on X4 by other creators. And it is a bit complex as it is targeted to filmmaker, videographer and people understand NLE editing. We want to show what is possible but not necessary is simple. Since this is a pro level NLE, it can do way more to integrate with 2D video than the Insta360 approach. So you can use Canon, SONY with your Insta360 instead of just Insta360.
Great video. Maybe I missed the explaination, can someone be kind enough to tell me the differences of using kvrReframe360Ultra vs kvrViewer tool in the Edit page ? I tried both and it seem they don't produce the exact same results no matter how I tune the parameter. The kvrViewer produce a result with less fisheye distortion (more straight lines like real world) but the edges are stretched... Thanks in advance
Question, with the final slow computer method does this affect final quality output? if youre exporting in 1920x1080 for horizontal isnt this the max people can select on YT?
No it does not. All method here as long as you have Resolve Studio - they are all high quality output - in some sense higher the Insta360 Studio if you throw in some Resolve AI magic
@@hughhou got you but if I want the video on UA-cam to be 4k wouldn’t the rendering in 1920x1080 limit that? That would be when you’re showing the render node bit
I guess there is no way to increase playback speed using retime controls for an adjustment layer? I suppose the best way to deal with this is to add the kvrViewer to the clip itself?
Actually adjustment layer is better than full clip - as you can cut just that adjustment layer and do reframe on the session you need to increase speed. Full clip will affect full clip render. If that make sense. Adjustment workflow is best practices even in Premiere.
Is it normal for Resolve to render with 3fps and run 2 render jobs for 1 timeline? That is what I am getting. I don't have a slow computer (MSI GE66 raider w/ i9 and RTX3080 16Gb VRAM). I don't mind the longer waiting time but as the video doesnt have realtime playback I have a lot of difficulty seeing what I am creating. The old school way of using the kvr ultra node in fusion does give me real-time playback.
Are you using kvrViewer on Edit page or Fusion page / Fusion Studio? If it is edit page - that is normal. Edit page require a lot more VRAM to run smoothly and strangely - work better on Mac Silicon (Blackmagic play favor!!) So I will suggest hit the magic pencil button and go to Fusion to reframe. The same on screen control is all there in Fusion and it is faster! Also turn off motion blur preview, high quality cache and drop your resolution to quater not Full to increase speed.
@@hughhou I was following along your video in Edit. When going to fusion you lose the drag to reframe functionality? Any benefit in not going back to the old WF using kvr reframe ultra? I usually crop right in the middle, basically taking a more narrow crop from a wider reframe node which seems to be ok for quality. Any thoughts?
@@hughhou Can you tell me which stitching optimisation should i use; Dynamic, optical flow, AI or chromatic before i export out the prores from insta 360 studio. Cant seem to understand which gives a better result.
How to create 2D video to 180 3D sbs video in davinci resolve studio ( so that it can be watched in DeoVR ). Not the normal 3d sbs video but 180 3D sbs video. Can you please create a tutorial for it. It would be much useful
I can't figure out the free way yet b/c I can not go around an outstanding bug on Fusion 19. But here is the free alternative workflow: ua-cam.com/video/hBLboMqnDo4/v-deo.htmlsi=v1J9G3BV_MDIaV9G&t=1201
is there a simple way (not ai intensive since that's only method Ive found), to frame 180 to 16:9(ish, slightly wider avoids black bars) sbs half without the fisheye effect. wish more creators would use 3d widescreen over 180/360.
You make great videos (as long as you don't wear the AVP while you speaking 🙂 ). Why do you mention other copiecats so often? Be proud that others are copying you.
All we know you are the best in 360!!!🎉 big hug friend!

It is so powerful and for some reason, lots of tutorials on the Internet does not go deep. Lots of the stuff I also learn by doing and reading the forum. It is no fun. I hope this and upcoming series can save everyone headache and give back more time to go film instead of sitting in front of the computer lol.
@@hughhou awesome, man! Yeah seems like a lot of work! Editing in 8k and 360 demands more tricks and Power, I'd say so all the stuff one can learn by your videos will also make the editing of regular film so much easier.. Also for ppl with no high end pc's.. That example of transforming 8k into 1080p f.e... Dope!
My dude what a video
Thank you!! Glad you like it and find it useful!
yes please credit the source totally agreed!

Welcome!!
Amazing content, thanks for these valuable guide. I switched from Insta360 X4 to Qoocam 3 Ultra, reframing was a bit of a letdown in Qoocam Studio compared to Insta, now in DaVinci there are a lot more possibilities.
Will you also be making a guide / workflow on how to shoot/import/edit/export Qoocam 3 Ultra footage for 360 8k 10-bit HDR color graded viewing? TYIA!!
I have one in my original Q3 Ultra review on Premiere. But Resolve is so simple - when you set HDR color space and resolve wide gurm color management - it just convert everything for you to REC 709 or whatever output space you decide. Literally like 3 second tutorial lol. I will make a short soon
@@hughhou that would be much appreciated!
Great stuff, Hugh. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! It is a tough one to teach without going to complicated :)
@@hughhou For sure! Resolve 360 workflows are not for the squeamish. And we're not even talking 360 stereoscopic!🙃Props to you for making Resolve approachable!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I am entering now into the video editing world and I learn a lot from your vids!
I am using an Intel i7 12700k 3.60 GHz, 32GB RAM DDR5, nVidia RTX4060 and a Corsair MP600 SSD, and it is extremely slow with the 8k workflow you suggested. The performance monitor is not showing any resource at 100% usage, so I do not understand where is the bottle neck. What component do you think should be improved? I do not want to use FullHD resolution workflow, because in a few years from now it will look obsolete and I wish my video to live a little longer than that. Thank you in advance for your help.
Yes, you should try to use full resources. I think the GPU is the bottle neck. I never use 4060 or anything with less than 8G vram. Resolve is a GPU heavy application
Thanks for the great content again. I have yet to try it out once I find the time. One thing I did not understand from your video is why you use portrait resolution? Only for social media export? Or is there another purpose?
Yes for social media like UA-cam Shorts, IG and TikTok since this is most people do reframe for - for their social media. For other video, I think 360 video and immersive format is way cooler. But this workflow also work with 16 by 9 up to 4K!
I really feel you should have linked Andrew Hazelden in the description. Most people will not know how to connect with him. "We are not here for credit" but credit should be given.
Agree!
thank you so much

Thank you so very much!!! Awesome! And I love Kimchi! 🙂
Our pleasure!
Great video. So clear and the example work well with great results.
I have often wondered if there is a way to make a 3d video with a 2d camera. I'm wondering if anyone has developed or considering a process that eg. one flies a drone through the same landscape several times and software / ai assembles a 3d video. Something for KartaVR?
Yes I have. I will focus on that when I go tho all the latest feature on Resolve :)
Very good video, one question, after using KartaVR and putting the image as you want, can normal tracking be used without any problem or can it give an error?
Thank you very much in advance.
You probably want to "pre-comp" all the KartaVR effects or even render in place everything before use tracking. Then tracking just work like normal video. The idea in VFX is always "render in place" before you do another GPU intensive task - like tracking. As long as you use ProRes as suggested in this video, you can render as many pass as you want to speed up your process (if not, it will be a long wait as your GPU might run out of VRAM for doing so many things at once). I hope this help!
Awesome stuff, Hugh -- very helpful as always! Appreciate getting the goods from you and not the 🐱🐱🐱!!! Thx.
Thank you thank you!!!!
HUGH, you the man.
Thank you!
Hello Hugh, great tip to level 360-video in Qoocam studio. But too bad you cant set keyframes in 360 editing mode. Hopefully Kandao can add this in the future.
Why you need keyframe in 360 mode? Any keyframe you should do it in NLE - as the smoothing is better. Keyframe to only keep the camera straight not keyframe pov (which make people sick in VR). BTW, we are coming to PARIS at Oct!!
@@hughhou Because the horizon isnt always off in the same way. You can straighten the horizon with the grid on moment A and it doesnt have to be straight at moment B. I think keyframes in 360-mode would be very useful. It works the same way with levelling with Davinci resolve fusion.
@@ChristiaanRoest79 I get what you mean, I put a grid overlay on the timeline so I could straighten the horizon in davinci
Master Hugh, the imitators will have to study this new tutorial in depth lol!!! Master, don't forget that we have doubts about how to use the FB360 Encoder for Muxing, because the FB360 Encoder does not accept ProRes files. We do not want to use mp4 with H264 or H265 codecs, so all we can do is export ProRes 8K and publish it on UA-cam as you taught us in the previous tutorial. In this case, our step with Reaper and FB is dead! Big hug!❤❤❤
Mmmmm, you don't use FB360 for UA-cam release tho. On Meta is H265 only so FB360 work fine. For UA-cam is only 4-ch you can use Premiere or just mux them together and use the Google Spatial Injection tool. I will figure out a more streamline Resolve workflow now Resolve 19 support ambisonic audio finally!
@@hughhou I miss FB360 running in Reaper in third order! If we use ProRes export in Premiere, we are restricted to 4 ch. And if we use H265 export for FB360 Encoder we have a loss of image quality. Does H265 also have a limit of up to 60Mbps? Maybe this fouxi ambisonic in Resoove is the solution! Thanks master!
Thank you! The fusion for speed part finally means i can edit 360 on my laptop. Are there any quality downsides at all to doing it that way? Why not set the project to that resolution in the first place?
Hi, I have tried the faster work flow part in the fusion, it does play back super smooth but I have a problem, I have the clips not making a full globe, edges not meeting, just wondering if you might have had this and if so how did you or have you corrected it.
many thanks
Great video!!!!! that australian accent never fooled me! haha
Lol! Glad you like it!!
Thanks Hugh :) Could you please tell us the professional alternative you will test out next for Topaz?
Neat, BorisFX BCC, Re:VisionFX, and Nuke.
@@hughhou Thanks a lot!
Very very very good tutorial. Would you explain how to track e.g. a logo with kvrplane to a moving object in in the 360 video?
Yes great idea. I will include it in upcoming tutorial
this is for the algorithm
加油！讲述很好！我们喜欢！
🐶 Thanks Kimchi!
Thank you Hugh
Hi really good video, I watched the original about a year ago when I first got my 360.
Could you make a video of your a basic workflow, for example , I have mixed footage, some from my phone and some from my 360. how do you do your workflow, do you have a couple time lines in the same project one with the 360 footage and then one with normal footage, then edit them both then combine. Would be really good to see how you combine the two and im sure many other people would also like to see one too
thank you
Great idea! I kinda mention how here by setting scaling in Inspector effect pano instead of timeline level. But I will make a dedicated one soon
@@hughhou Thank you for the reply and I look forward to a video when you get time. thanks again
Thanks Hugh 👍
My pleasure!
Thanks again for an awesome tutorial. I work with dogs, and I'm trying to figure out the best work flow. Often I film with just one 360 camera, but I would love to have the possibility to edit the photage as a multicam clip. So I can easily switch between the dogs, or me. Also I was wondering if the Karta VR has a autotrack function you can use to reframe?
Hi Hugh Hou :) Could you give me a quick recommended tool list for 3603D so I know what to buy and learn:
1) Recommended Upframing Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model?
2) Recommended Upscaling Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model?
3)Recommended Denoising Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model?
Thanks so much on advance 😍
I don't think I did systemic testing yet so I can not give recommandation. It is my plan to run comparison test somedays soon.
@@hughhou Would be great! But anyway what is your gut feeling?
@@hughhou I would also be highly interested in an objective comparison of tools and models for 360 video quality improvement. :) Thank you a lot for your effort!
Free with love back brother
Haha thank you!!
Hugh you are the man. Awesome tutorial but I´m struggling with the VR viewer update. When I want to update it it says you have reached the limitation of DR "Buy now". The timeline is also not possible to change to 8k
What software would you recommend for improving 360 images? Neat Photo for denoise and Topaz Photo Ai for upscale? Or something else?
And what for editing? Thought about just using Davinci also for photo editing since it brings everything needed for 3603D and others don't...
Thanks a lot in advance :) I will buy your recommendation today if you answer. :)
I am making a tutorial about photo as we speak so I will answer you with an indepth tutorial!
@@hughhouThis is great! 😍
Please also consider 3D here... since all Editors can't display/handle it :/ (thats why o thought about using Resolve instead)
Great tutorial I wear 2 hats one is 360 video editing the other is hospitality and catering instructional design with a focus on culinary arts. Can you do a tutorial on editing filming and editing cooking demos your contribution would be a great contribution to lecturers and food photographers. 🙏🌟🌟
Great suggestion. I will certainly considering it and plan it.
Is there a difference in quality from the insta360 & qoocam software to ProRes ? Should all insta360 x4 user use Qoocam export tool instead ? I've also had multiple clip to export, and it asked me more question in my export than it did for you. Ask me for direction lock, denoise and a few others... Maybe I have a newer version of insta360, or it because I'm on windows, or when you select multiple clips, you get a different option set... I let them all at the default, and let my computer export them and we will see what happen.
Oh no, this is just a good hack. But if you know how to adjust level, you can just go from Insta360 Studio to Resolve as Resolve in kvrViewer or ReframeUltra can also adjust level. I do that for Premiere edit as Premiere latest 2024 having some issue on VR rotate sphere and I need to use Qoocam Studio to save my a$$.
Have hoped for the spatial audio tutorial you promoted even before the last Reframing Tutorial.
Or some news on which tools to use with which settings for increasing framerate or resolution, comparison of doing vs the other first etc. :/
I am waiting now since months and freezed my whole private pipeline since upscaling / upframing is mich money energy wise for me.
I bought Topaz since you recommended it some time ago to upframe 3603D or upscale, but now you say it creates artifacts that we can't see in your videos.
So what now...what tools to use, what process and settings to follow. :/
Anyway a great tutorial, learned a lot. Thanks! :) Sadly not what I need but I hope you will come up with some more of your really worthful insights about spatial audio and Ai treatment for Pro 2 footage etc. soon. 🤍
Yes sorry still not back to audio yet as there are so many bigger topic I need to cover first. But soon!
@@hughhou Okey :( thanks!
not to be a stickler but 14:55 to 16:10 sounds wild like rumbling but i took a bunch of notes thank i will let you know if everything works :)
Thank you for point it out!
Hey Hugh. I think I have a beginner question.... maybe will be helpful to more people. I have KvrViewer on an Adjustment Clip. I have reframed the shot. Now I wish to ad some speed ramps to it, but when I mess with the Retime Frame, it does no affect the adjustment clip as well, so my KVR reframe looses its link with the clip. Any tips? Thanks a lot if you have the time.
It is kinda like in Premiere, I will retime it first - nest or pre-comp (right click and comp the clip with retiming effect in it, or better, render in place as retime effect is very GPU intensive). If it is harder, just use the kvrViewer on the clip directly - adjustment layers is a best practices for long video but does not mean you need to follow it all the time. Both ways work
@@hughhou Really appreciate the fast response! I tried reframing and after making a Compound Clip to add after the Retime. OH of M1 Pro got very slow... I will try to retime first as you suggested... and also add music for only after doing the reframing. I believe is a much better workflow. Thanks a lot!!!
Response: Even your gut feeling would help a lot! No need to fill in the settings if you have no idea, but the software would help a lot 😍
1) Recommended Upframing Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model?
2) Recommended Upscaling Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model?
3)Recommended Denoising Software/Plugin → recommended setting/model?
I still think Topaz Video AI is pretty legit right now: bit.ly/3H7OUEd - but there are other more professional alternative I need to test and have not get the chance too until my next project.
@@hughhou Thanks :) what are those possible alternatives? And what about 3.)?
Hi Hugh, I have watched this video about a dozen times on the faster work flow. No matter what I do I end up with holes in the clips in fusion. Im using a insta 360 x3, I have tried changing the resolution and stretch to the edges but no luck, please help me as when I do play it back, even with the holes/ chunks missing from the clips it plays back super smooth as you said it does in the video.
Thanks again
Still links to tutorials missing here
Which one is missing?
@@hughhou don't know if it's just me
4:11 didnt appear here
622 is not clickable (same as other before 4min) ... may be it's not suposed to? but i'll find it.
I work with 3D and I'm producing 360, ask me a question please, the Quest 2 glasses have a maximum resolution of 1832 x 1920 for each eye, if I'm going to create a 360 stereo top and down I have to generate it with the full resolution of 3840 x 3840 ?
Quest 2 the best resolution will be 5760 x 5760 top and bottom. So Pro 2 with 60fps 5760 x 5760 will get you the best resolution in high refresh rate. I hope it help!
Still waiting for that premiere pro video you were going to do lol...
In all seriousness though. If you ever get time, could you add master class for those who use these as intended. 360? I dont use 180, I dont use reframed... I use straight 360 and as you know I hate the quality out of it. =( You said you had some tips and tricks you were putting together a few months ago but I guess you're still working on that premiere pro video. :)
You are in the 九份?! welcome to Taiwan ❤🎉
Yes I am! A whole new 九份 VR180 experience is coming soon.
@hughhou Would you still recommend Neat Video to denoise 3603D videos? Or sth. else?
That is what I used on a daily basic - but some people argue Topaz AI is better. But let me take more time to do a correct comparison to draw my conclusion.
Thanks! :) Will be very interesting@@hughhou
I personally have not achieved good results with Topaz for Denoising yet but I might have did too much...need to play around with it a bit too
What Do you think about codec av1 in Container webM with Opus Audio?
I am not familiar with webM.
X4 owner not used to Davinci and while this video is great I can't pass the fact it's all look complicated with many many steps from start to finish. The learning curve is harsh. I wish we could tell the program what camera we have and 80% of all thoses settings would be done automatically. Until then, thanks for this tutorial.
Fair. This is more for professionals that want to get every single pixel quality out from X4 and get rid of those blurry complaint on X4 by other creators. And it is a bit complex as it is targeted to filmmaker, videographer and people understand NLE editing. We want to show what is possible but not necessary is simple. Since this is a pro level NLE, it can do way more to integrate with 2D video than the Insta360 approach. So you can use Canon, SONY with your Insta360 instead of just Insta360.
@@hughhou Thanks for the reply.
Great video. Maybe I missed the explaination, can someone be kind enough to tell me the differences of using kvrReframe360Ultra vs kvrViewer tool in the Edit page ? I tried both and it seem they don't produce the exact same results no matter how I tune the parameter. The kvrViewer produce a result with less fisheye distortion (more straight lines like real world) but the edges are stretched...
Thanks in advance
Question, with the final slow computer method does this affect final quality output? if youre exporting in 1920x1080 for horizontal isnt this the max people can select on YT?
No it does not. All method here as long as you have Resolve Studio - they are all high quality output - in some sense higher the Insta360 Studio if you throw in some Resolve AI magic
@@hughhou got you but if I want the video on UA-cam to be 4k wouldn’t the rendering in 1920x1080 limit that? That would be when you’re showing the render node bit
Possible to add motion blur to the reframe movements?
Yes! You can just turn on Motion Blur in Resolve as it’s built in.
@@hughhou where is the motion blur option i couldn't find in the Fusion page?
I was just thinking, can you use DaVinci Resolve to edit insta360 videos while doing a voiceover at the same time?
I guess there is no way to increase playback speed using retime controls for an adjustment layer? I suppose the best way to deal with this is to add the kvrViewer to the clip itself?
Actually adjustment layer is better than full clip - as you can cut just that adjustment layer and do reframe on the session you need to increase speed. Full clip will affect full clip render. If that make sense. Adjustment workflow is best practices even in Premiere.
Thanks again boss, guess retime first and then adjustment layer seems to be the way to go
Is it normal for Resolve to render with 3fps and run 2 render jobs for 1 timeline? That is what I am getting. I don't have a slow computer (MSI GE66 raider w/ i9 and RTX3080 16Gb VRAM). I don't mind the longer waiting time but as the video doesnt have realtime playback I have a lot of difficulty seeing what I am creating. The old school way of using the kvr ultra node in fusion does give me real-time playback.
Are you using kvrViewer on Edit page or Fusion page / Fusion Studio? If it is edit page - that is normal. Edit page require a lot more VRAM to run smoothly and strangely - work better on Mac Silicon (Blackmagic play favor!!) So I will suggest hit the magic pencil button and go to Fusion to reframe. The same on screen control is all there in Fusion and it is faster! Also turn off motion blur preview, high quality cache and drop your resolution to quater not Full to increase speed.
@@hughhou I was following along your video in Edit. When going to fusion you lose the drag to reframe functionality? Any benefit in not going back to the old WF using kvr reframe ultra? I usually crop right in the middle, basically taking a more narrow crop from a wider reframe node which seems to be ok for quality. Any thoughts?
Commenting so youtube algorithm finds it
Thank you thank you!!
@@hughhou Can you tell me which stitching optimisation should i use; Dynamic, optical flow, AI or chromatic before i export out the prores from insta 360 studio. Cant seem to understand which gives a better result.
Hey Hugh, can you please check the link to KartaVR plugin. It shows "page not found" message.
How to create 2D video to 180 3D sbs video in davinci resolve studio ( so that it can be watched in DeoVR ). Not the normal 3d sbs video but 180 3D sbs video. Can you please create a tutorial for it. It would be much useful
Great but same video with Pano X2 8k 👍
Yes Pano X2 will also work on this workflow!
Where is the promised tutorial on loading 8K into free davinci resolve?
Not out yet! Resolve has a bug stopping this to happen in 19 :(
@04:08, dont forget that link :)
I can't figure out the free way yet b/c I can not go around an outstanding bug on Fusion 19. But here is the free alternative workflow: ua-cam.com/video/hBLboMqnDo4/v-deo.htmlsi=v1J9G3BV_MDIaV9G&t=1201
All works for me up until I switch to Fusion and there is no node for KVR viewer. There is only Mediain and mediaout. What am I missing?
is there a simple way (not ai intensive since that's only method Ive found), to frame 180 to 16:9(ish, slightly wider avoids black bars) sbs half without the fisheye effect. wish more creators would use 3d widescreen over 180/360.
Oh yes! This is touch on 180 but focus on 360 only. But yes, I will make a dedicated one for 180 reframe. Hold tight!
I have green screen on .mov in qoocam studio windows, any solutions to this ?
thanks
