Output Settings and Configuration

This guide covers Fluxion's output settings and configuration options.

Output Formats

Fluxion can render to multiple formats:

• MP4 Video (default)
• GIF Animation
• PNG Sequence
• MOV Video

Quality Settings

Control output quality with the -q flag:

# Low quality (480p)
fluxion -ql scene.py MyScene

# Medium quality (720p) - default
fluxion -qm scene.py MyScene

# High quality (1080p)
fluxion -qh scene.py MyScene

# 4K quality
fluxion -qk scene.py MyScene

Configuration File

Create a fluxion.cfg file in your project:

[CLI]
quality = high
preview = true
save_last_frame = false

[output]
format = mp4
codec = h264
pixel_format = yuv420p

Command Line Options

Common flags:

• -p - Preview (open video after rendering)
• -s - Save last frame as PNG
• -l - Low quality (faster rendering)
• -m - Medium quality
• -h - High quality
• -k - 4K quality
• --format - Output format (mp4, gif, mov)

Frame Rate

Set custom frame rate:

class MyScene(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        self.camera.frame_rate = 60  # 60 FPS
        # Your animation code

Background Color

class MyScene(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        self.camera.background_color = "#000000"  # Black
        # or
        self.camera.background_color = WHITE

Transparent Background

config.background_opacity = 0

Then render as PNG or MOV with alpha channel.
