That s appt of bitrate talk. I won't pretend to understand it but I think a related question is: should I go.for 1080/60 or 4k/30 for video? At what point does it make sense to scale down. Resolution to benefit from frame rate?
Also, just now figuring this out, what software is good for Windows? I don't have a computer at the moment, let alone the money for an apple. I've got 3 young kids, not money.
Also, what does 360 video editing? Do the cameras come with software you can fumble through to get something or do you need an expensive program and addin?
For tarmac riding on a motorbike, I'd always suggest 60fps, if in low light then drop down to 30fps. 1080 is absolutely fine, I upscale in editing to stop YouTube compressing it when I put it onto my channel, it is a trick, it isn't really 4k. I record 90% of my videos at 1080, and all my road/track stuff at 60fps, the dirt or night I drop to 30fps, but still stick with the 1080.
For Windows, I use Filmora Wondershare, it is simple to use and has almost all you will need from a video editor, and it isn't too expensive either.
Most 360 cameras are designed to be edited on a mobile phone, it is easier to do so but it does mean you need a decent spec'd phone, each camera will specify the minimum requirements. as for editing the 360 stuff on PC, currently only Insta360 have an editor for their cameras. GoPro are working on one, but it'll be a few steps behind the Insta360 software I imagine.
Adobe Premiere Pro or whatever it is called can do 360 edits, but it is expensive and will grind a low spec PC to a painfully slow pace to edit a 5.7k 360 video.
Like I said earlier, I edit my 360 footage on my phone mostly, then transfer that edited video onto my PC to mix it with my other camera footage and audio.
