Exported MP4 File

Why does my exported file look worse than my edited clips when I follow the steps in the tutorial? H.224 with a medium bitrate. The video looks like it has a haze that moves over the footage.

Thanks

In addition to my first prost earlier;

this is a good link on how to create a sequence, which to me appears to be one of two of your problems. Not my video, I did however watch it, its enough to help you I suspect tocreate a proper sequence for your project that matches that GoPro 9's 4k @ 60fps footage you have (read my other post for more information).

I had a long response typed out, but I think the easy thign for you to do is export this but use the facebook preset; this is the option on export when you select the "preset" button on the export dialog.

I notice that the preset for 720p video is 12mbs, so 4x more than the 3x you used in your sample. At the end of the day, even using the 720p preset will be much better quality than the settings you had. You will ahve to confirm if facebook will accept the higher 1080p preset or 2160p.

I think this will correct your export problem and make it look better.

Can you post a screenshot of your sequence settings and your export settings?

Here are the settings files you asked to see. My video clips from my GP9 look very sharp and clear, but when edited they looked like there's ghosting and an unclean lens milky looked.

I might be having a hard time following your settings. This is what I belive your doing, setting up a sequence that you place your video as a 720p video (the sequence settings you show say this), then your exporting it as a 2160p @ 60fps with 3Mbits - if thats the case there is two major things wrong...

It appears you are using a Gopro 9, which for sure is 2160p video. Do one of two things for timeline/sequence settings, create your sequence as a UHD sequence OR when you drop your video into the sequence it should ask you if you want to keep or change the settings to match. Choose, the change settings to match; this is how you keep it in 4k/uhd/2160p video (if you want to export in 1080p or smaller, thats fine you can edit it all in 4K timeline, then use the export to convert it down to 1080p or 720p if thats what you wanted)

Next, that export at 3Mbps for 2160p (UHD) seems really low. I would bump that up to a much higher number, depending on exactly what you want for size, but I'm pretty sure 3 is too low and thats why you see "the lego movie" for your export.

To give you an idea, the GoPro 9 records at 100Mbs and you asked it to make a file that is 3% of that, its going to look bad. Plus your sequence settings dont help, that needs to be a UHD timeline/sequence to match the camera.

Make these two changes, and it should look MUCH better.

With that said, I dont think you actualy said what your trying to do. Its clear you have 4k video (2160p/UHD) and I dont know if you actualy want a 720p exported video (which is WAY lower quality vs what you recorded on the gopro). If you tell us what your after, it might be easier to provide advice to those ends.

We'd need to see images to even have an idea. Grab a screen grab and drag/drop it onto your reply box.

Hello,

I hope you can see what I mean. It is very apparent in the video.
