    Aliased / pixelated export with DNxHD

    Posted by Joe Walter on August 11, 2014 at 7:28 am

    Hey,

    I have a huge problem – i hope this is the right forum, but since it occurs with after effects, I post it here:

    I just figured out, that the clips I export from AE CC 2014 all are very extremely pixelated.
    I use Avid DNxHD codec with the following settings:

    Color Levels: 709
    Alpha: None
    Resolutions: 1080p/25 DNxHD 185 8-bit

    A test-render with Animation codec looks just great. But IMHO the DNxHD should be able to look great, right?

    Here is an example:
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/a9c77u048s1zeow/aliasing.jpg

    Dropbox seems to lower the quality for previews – so please click on download and open it from your harddrive.

    Any suggestions, what might help?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Joe,

    You are not alone, I have the same problem. Pixelated graphics when exporting to DnXHD but only on the red channel.

    I now export graphics as Quicktime/ PNG (smaller files/ better quality than Animation codec) but if anyone has a clue on how to prevent this, I’m all ears!
