Just add it in the 'Advanced Options' block under 'Video'. Like this 'modulus=2'. No spaces and without the ''.

setting modulus under the video tab won't do anything. It's not a valid option.

There is no modulus setting. Just set whatever resolution you need for your player.

Thanks for this information.

I would also like to know why the modulus setting disappeared when upgrading from v1.3.3 to v1.4.x

How does the program determine this now under the bonnet so to speak? Is it dynamically set depending on input variables or is it a one-size-fits-all approach now? Why was the setting removed?

Basically, the modulus is now always 2. If for some reason your player is part of the 0.0001% or so that need the storage dimensions to divide evenly by e.g. 4 or 8, you have to manually ensure this is the case.

Am I wrong in thinking that higher modulus settings yield greater compression / smaller resultant filesize?

Yes, you are wrong.

Yes, you are wrong.

Thank you, standing down. Move along, nothing to see here, problem solved.
