I generally shoot at 60 fps, as this allows me to use slow motion for my b roll. I need my camera at the ready, so I can't be switching back and forth from 60 fps to 30 fps. The problem is, when I am rendering in 30 fps, my footage always looks terrible - there are tons of blocky artifacts and the detail get stripped and everything looks fuzzy instead of sharp and distinct.
For rendering, I use:
-H.264 option
-1920 x 1080 (same as source)
-rendering at 30 fps (source is 59.97)
-11-15k bitrate (I've been experimenting, but no difference seen)
-reduce blocky artifacts (intel SSE4 optimized)
-reduce video noise when using h.264 encoders
-High Profile type
- CABAC
-Quality mode
-use deblocking
-use dynamic GOP
Can someone give me some advice what might be going on? The videos I've shot are crisp, but Powerdirector rendering always makes them look like garbage. I know other people (probably using other programs) are making content with 120 fps video with speed ups and slow downs that looks smooth and crystal clear being output at 30 and 24 fps, so I'm not sure why mine isn't working.
Thank you!
