  • Video is pixelated and granulated after 1080p render (Sony Vegas 12)

    Hello everyone,

    I am having a major problem when I edit videos. I have taken up the hobby of recording and video editing my online gaming sessions. I record with the program Fraps in 1920×1080. In the raw video format and on the Sony Vegas preview the video looks perfect. However, after the video is rendered it becomes extremely pixelated with boxy artifacting. I have messed with the .mp4 video properties almost everyway possible and the video comes out the same every time. Here is an example:

    It is not Youtube because the video looks that way when I view it on my computer. Also, if you look at about :18 seconds in the video you will notice the pixelation get particularly bad. Note that it is not just this video. I have tried multiple videos with very similar results. Here are my exact video and render settings, but like I said, I have tried numerous different ones:

    Can someone please help me out? I have no idea what the problem is.

    Thanks.

    First of all, set the frame rate to 30 on both the project properties and the Mainconcept codec. They must match. Second, change the deinterlace method to none, because your source is progressive.

    Thanks for the reply and it does seem to have helped. However, I still notice some obvious pixelation. I created this video with your fixes. You still can see some obvious issues in the sky at full screen 1080p. I do notice the pixelation is mainly correlated with motion.

    Any ideas?
