Incorrect Level for Export

I am attempting to export a project, but I am unable to successfully export. To the right of my "Width", "Height", "Frame Rate", and "Level" drop-down menus are warning signs that when hovered over present the following dialogue:
"The H.264 Level is not compatible with the combination of WIdth, Height, and Frame rate."
I am currently unable to change the codec; H.264 is the only option in the "Codec" drop-down.
Is there a way to switch to a different codec that allows my settings?
Is there a resource containing the information on the limits to each codec?
My current video properties for the project are:
Codec: H.264
Width: 1280
Height: 720
Frame Rate: 25
Field Type: Progressive
Aspect Ratio: Square Pixels (1.0)
Color Depth: 24-bit (RGB)
Profile: High
Level: 1.3
Encoding: Variable bitrate, 1 pass
Target Bitrate: 0.064 Mbps
Max Bitrate: 0.064 Mbps
No audio is being exported. The project successfuly exports in.avi format, but I wish to export as an .mp4. I have been unable to find a combination of settings that will allow an export.

Your Target Bitrate and Max Bitrate are way too low for HD video. Bump them up and it may work for you.
If you are trying to create a small file, lower the Profile also.

Thanks! I'll try it.

Didn't fix the problem with the codec. Still getting a message saying the resolution, framerate, and codec are not compatible.

Looks like your Level setting is too low to me. Are you getting a little triangle alert near the Level menu? Try increasing the Level setting one step at a time to see at what point things will work.

Thanks! I just had to take the level setting up to 3.1. Appreciate the prompt assistance.

i actually had the same problem. At first I couldn't find the level setting... then I looked closer. haha

@nakib1 this thread is rather old at this point, and originates at the dawn of the forum, so it is unlikely any of the original posters will respond. If you are looking for the "Level" setting then it is beneath "Profile" and above "Encoding" in the video category when creating the export preset.
