Question

Text renders out with very poor quality

I am completely blown away by this issue...

Top line is a frame exported directly from the timeline. Bottom line is a still from what the actual video looks like after the export. The text almost looks as if it has a stroke applied to it which it does not as you can see from the top line.

I have tried every possible combination - export in ProRes, H.264 at 50Mbps, Checking "Render at Maximum Depth" & "Use Maximum Render Quality", imported the text as a PSD, imported the text as a PNG, used the title graphics in Premiere, upscaled the text to 4K and then downscaled back to 1080p, exported using Mercury Software only, using GPU acceleration (OpenCL).... I just don't know what else to do. I've tried it all. My pixel aspect ration is set to square pixels and fields is set to "no fields (progressive)".

Please help!! I need to deliver this video to my client ASAP and I cannot deliver garbage like this.

    Avoid Maximum Bit Depth as well since it is well known to introduce issues. Red color for titles can introduce issues as well.

    Then, read this article since it´s still valid today: Great Titles

    1. Do use Maximum Bit Depth.

    2. Don't use Maximum Render Quality.

    3. Change the color as a test.  Use something Web Safe.  Same result?
