# Output inspection: Export Settings for Upscaled Video

Balance codec, bitrate, resolution, and compatibility with the platform that will play the result. Review the result at its intended size and inspect details that previews can hide.

## Practical review sequence

1. Preserve the original input and note its important limitations.
2. Apply the smallest change that addresses the current task.
3. Compare the result with the source at the intended display size.
4. Record settings and uncertainty before the result is reused.

This public workflow document covers one bounded quality-control task. It is intended as a repeatable reference rather than a substitute for checking the source material and the final output directly.

## Summary
To ensure high quality, balance technical settings like bitrate and resolution with the requirements of the playback platform. Always review the final output at its intended size and compare it against the source material to verify the results.

## Themes
- video upscaling workflow
- quality control standards
- output inspection process

## Key takeaways
- Export settings must be balanced based on codec, bitrate, resolution, and platform compatibility.
- A repeatable review sequence requires comparing the final output against the source material at the intended display size.
- The workflow document is a reference tool and does not replace direct inspection of source and output files.

## Insights
- Previews can obscure critical details that only become visible at the intended final display size.
- The most effective quality control strategy involves minimizing changes to the source material rather than aggressive processing.
- Documentation of uncertainty is as important as recording the technical settings used for the export.

## Open questions / gaps
- What specific metrics define an acceptable level of uncertainty when recording settings?
- What are the recommended tools or methods for performing the side by side comparison between source and output?
