  Exporting H264, but quality keeps dropping?

  Posted by Nick Alexander on October 4, 2013 at 7:50 pm

  Hello, and sorry, I am no FCP expert.

  I’m trying to export a 7 minute video which I can put online, and I’m trying to do so as an H264 in 1080.

  I’m using QT conversion with H264 and best quality for the export, with size set to current.

  My clips are all 1920×1080, 24fps.

  My sequence settings (img): https://afarewelltokings.com/000.png

  Here is the problem: The resolution looks wonderful after export. Right up until it begins to fade to black (cross dissolve), at which point it becomes pixilated. Then, it just stays that way for the rest of the video. Here are images:

  It looks good at first: https://afarewelltokings.com/001.png
  Begins to dissolve, becomes pixelated (img): https://afarewelltokings.com/002.png
  Video looks like crap! (img): https://afarewelltokings.com/003.png

  Something tells me I’ve done something wrong in the sequence settings. Please help!
