I am experiencing the same issue. The image looks fantastic within Premiere (corrected using Colorista), but as soon as I output it to any sort of compressed format (Quicktime, WMV, etc.) the image is darker (almost too dark to see).
I have an Nvidia 260 card with the latest drivers.
The “adjust video settings” allow you to select “with the video player settings” and “with the Nvidia settings.”
I hesitate to switch to “with the Nvidia settings,” but this is the only way to adjust anything from within the Nvidia panel. An earlier post state “at the bottom on left colum, there is a setting for “color” for tv-and video display. I turned that off becuse it was over contrasting and brightening the output” but that setting does not exist in this new Nvidia control panel.
Any suggestions?
Again, the problem I seek to solve is that footage that looks fantastic from within Premiere is almost too dark to even see once it’s exported (Adobe Media Encoder) to any compressed format (Quicktime, Windows Media, etc.).
I don’t really want to just make it brighter in Premiere before exporting, but that seems like the only thing that would work at this point.
