Details

Constant frame rate required. No telecine, interlacing, or duplicate frames.

Frame rate is simply how many frames are played per second.

Telecine refers to footage that has been converted from its native or source rate (for example, 24 frames per second) to broadcast or another rate by inserting a duplicate frame every fourth frame, or by blending or interlacing every third frame together.

Maximum file size is determined by multiplying the duration of the media by its bitrate. For example, 30 seconds x 15,000 kbps= 450 MB or 0.45 GB.
