Adobe Animate video is pixelated after rendering

Hi, happy new year!

I would like to render my animation in order to put it into Davinci Resolve for editing.

Unfortunately, the render is blurry, especially at a certain part of the video.

I am using Media Player on Windows to view the animation. I also uploaded the animation to Youtube to test the quality and the same issue is visible.

How can I fix this blurryness? Below are the settings I am using for exporting from Adobe Animate and using Adobe Media Encoder.

Which preset in "Export Media" is the best to use? I want it to be lossless because I will edit it in a video editing software. I am new to render settings/codecs so I'm not sure which preset is the most storage efficient.

Thanks for your help!

Happy New Year, @skug98 !

To start, try the Default (AME) profile for H.264.

You can also try the YouTube or Vimeo Full HD, or the High Quality 1080p HD profiles. Any of these should produce good results.

If you're not satisfied with the quality, you can switch to QuickTime output format and leave it as Default (Animate), which will most likely produce an uncompressed lossless MOV file. Depending on the length of your animation and available drive space it may or may not be practical to work with uncompressed MOVs.

Keep in mind they may not even play well in VLC of Windows Media Player, but should be suitable for editing.

Finally, a viable option is to export a PNG sequence which is lossless but compressed, and use that in your video editing application. You will also need to export the audio separately.

To export a PNG sequence go to File > Export Movie... and choose PNG Sequence as your target format.

Hi, thanks so much for the help. Exporting with Quicktime drastically improved the quality!

One issue is that the Quicktime render is a lot brighter than it should be.

Is there a way to prevent the Quicktime render from being so bright in Adobe Animate/Adobe Media Enconder?

I don't know what the reason for the increased brightness is.

It could be just a player/playback issue with QuickTime on Windows.

Check it in DaVinci / Premiere, where you will do the final editing to make sure it is actually brighter.

Maybe you can make color adjustments in AME and add them to a custom profile, but it probably will be better to do it as part of your final edit.
