  • Sony vegas Pro 11 high Quality rendering looks like crap

    Posted by Marc Thalmann on May 27, 2012 at 8:31 pm

    Hi my Sony Vegas brothers,

    I really have a problem here. I started using SV Pro 11 and it appears to me that the rendering time takes much longer than on SV Pro 10 and the quality is in neither way a match to Pro 10. I really don’t know what the problem is. I followed every step to make the best rendering available, but the endresult is terrible. I shoot videos with my hacked GH2.

    Can anyone help me here to make the best of my rendering?

    Would be more than happy. Thanks to all of you in advance.

    Marc

    Have you tried with GPU acceleration off?

    Hi Kristoffer,

    it is already off, because my laptop doesn’t support GPU acceleration.

    I might have found the solution for my problem:

    but I am still searching for the best quality I can get without superhuge filesize.

    [Marc Thalmann] “but I am still searching for the best quality I can get without superhuge filesize.”

    If your target is Internet video, you should deliver MPEG4/H.264 files. In Vegas Pro 10.0 use the Sony AVC encoder. In Vegas Pro 11.0 use the MainConcept AVC encoder. Both will have templates that start with “Internet” and provide the best quality/size trade-off for internet video

    Hi John,

    thank you very much for taking time. I already tried the MainConcept encoder, but it took incredibbly long and I wasn’t satisfied with the results.

    I tried out the Sony AVC on SVP 11 and it seems to work better for me, but I still am not very happy with it. the look is grainy and not close to what my GH2 is capable of.

    What templates are you using? The Sony AVC produces Blu-ray quality footage.

    Hi John,

    I’m using this template:

    Video: 24 fps

    1920×1080 Progressive; YUV; 16Mbps

    Profile: High

    Pixel aspect ratio: 1,0000

    Bit rate: 16.000.000

    Encode mode: render using CPU only – have to use this because else I have problems with the audio.

    Is that template from one of the built-in templates? or did you create that yourself? At 16K bit-rate you should be getting good quality.

    Also, have you every installed any codec-paks? These could cause your renders to be poor quality.

    I did create the template myself, having searched for the best render settings on the net. no, no codec-paks installed.

    [Marc Thalmann] “I did create the template myself, having searched for the best render settings on the net.”

    Try using one of the built-in Blu-ray templates that Vegas Pro provides. They are usually already set for optimal quality.
