Video has very poor quality after rendering in Premiere Elemnts 2020

I am new to Premiere and don't have any experience in video editing.

I started a new project, cut my video and then I click "render" after which not only the preview as also the end result become very pixeled so that I can't use it for anything

 

I record on my PC with a RTX 2060 and the original video is in Full HD, 60 FPS and has a 15M Bitrate.

My monitor and also the resolution I record are 3440x1440 if that helps.

Below is a picture of how it looked before and after rendering.

 

Thanks in advance.

The source video, project settings and output setting should normally all match.

 

I'm going to assume that if you are using your graphics card system to record, it is recording at the screen quality of 1920x1080.  

 

Start a new project without any settings.  Add a primary source clip to the timeline.  Premiere Elements should see that and set the project to match.   That should be 1920x1080.   Then, the project should only need timeline preview rendering if you add complex effects.   

 

Remember that what you see during editing is a real time preview, not the actual output.  Depending on the strength of your computer and various settings, it might be a little fuzzy.  But if the source and project match, probably not.  

 

When done, do the output rendering at the same settings to match.  The result should look as good as the source.

Okay. I did everything as you said and now it works. I didn't know, there was a difference between timeline and final redering

Thank you!

I looked again and the resolution I record in is of course not 4K but 1920x1080.
