Hello!

When trying to produce a video from two recorded files, I'm getting a blurrier image in the produced video than in the original, even with what appears to be the exact same settings as the original files (except average bitrate, which is much higher). Here are screenshots to illustrate what I mean, and VLC media info to show what the settings are:





What the originals have that the PD produced video lacks are the color settings, the ITU-R BT.601 (525 lines, 60 Hz), the color transfer function: sRGB, and the color space ITU-R BT.601. Is that the issue? If it could be, how do I set it up in PowerDirector? I've looked but haven't found any type of setting for it.


This is the profile I used for producing the video:



I've tried setting Frame Rate to 60, no difference. Tried Entropy coding to CABAC, no difference. Tried Average bitrate at 6000, 8000 and 15000 K bps, no difference. I've also tried with "use deblocking" on/off, as well as "Use dynamic GOP" on/off without it changing the blurryness of the produced video. Surely there's something I can do to make the finished video look just as crisp as the original?

Thanks!
