It should be more than enough, especially for animation. You can use any of the truly high bitrate profiles available.
If you don’t want to get too paranoid about this, then DNxHD is a very good choice though not lossless. The obvious drawback is humongous file sizes. If space is not an issue, then by all means go for HuffyUV as it’s lossless. This is my first post to this community, so forgive me if this thread is in the wrong place! I’ve tried using H.264, as both a container and codec, but I can’t open the video in any video editing software, or even play it in Windows Media Player, although it does play in VLC Player.
I’m really keen to keep it to keep it at the highest-quality possible, as well as still work in the resolution I intended (2560x1440). I was just wondering what container/codec combination would give me lossless video/audio, and stil be editable in mainstream video editing software. I’ve done up a few really cool animations in Blender 2.69, which I’ve rendered out to PNG frames in 1440p, as I was going to sequence them into a video later, alongside some sound effects.
