AFTER EFFECTS MEDIA ENCODE PIXELATED EXPORT

Report · Jul 03, 2023

I recorded with a sony Sony A7III with recording setting at 60p 50M. I was working on after effects just cutting some clips and exporting as I usually do in Media Encoder but the final video is pixelated, any idea what is causing this?

Hi angelica22537740wodu!

Sorry about the issue. Can you share your system details (OS, CPU, RAM, GPU)? Does it happen with Sony files specifically?

What happens when you export directly from AE?

Let us know. Happy to assist.

Thanks,

Kartika

no this is the first time it happens to me, I have worked with the same camera before editing videos, this happened with these files. In the end I exported them with other setting outside my usual because of deadlines.

Thanks for sharing the details. The target bitrate set in your export settings (10 Mbps) is a bit low, considering the output frame size (4k). Setting a low bitrate can add compression artifacts to your video. Could you increase it to about 50 Mbps and let us know if that helps?
