Illustrations losing quality in PP
For some reason, particular graphics are losing quality in PP, especially blue hues or areas where drop shadows were applied, their original colour is disrupted around the edges mostly.
Any ideas why this may be would appreciated, thanks.

How about some system specs? Format specs? Sequence settings? Maybe some screenshots of the problem?

Hi,
Here my system specs:
Here’s a screen shot of the loss of quality I’m observing:
Here are my sequence settings:
Here are my export settings:

One thing I observe is that although you are editing in SD, you are outputting HD. You are blowing up the resolution from 720×480 interlaced widescreen to 1280×720 progressive. That alone may account for the softness and slight imperfections you are noticing.
Although rendering using “Maximum Render Quality” will help in your upscale, it will not produce miracles, I’m afraid. SD is still SD.

Typically cutting short form from HD MP4 and P2 MXF. -
Oops – one correction. I zoomed in on your pixel aspect ratio for your project timeline. Although your timeline is 1280×720, you have set a pixel aspect ratio from NTSC SD widescreen. 1280×720 is natively widescreen.
That pixel aspect ratio seting is likely distorting your pixels in your finished project, also creating the issues you are seeing.
