Default Re: mp4 to DNxHd - File size 10x larger

Hi,

try DNXHD 36 8bit
It should be lighter...

Is there a better way to convert these? Any specific settings I should be trying? Avid talks about how DNxHD allows smaller file sizes for ease of use but I am not seeing that at all.

Thanks for any help you can offer.
