Google for “Quicktime H.264 Gamma”. There’s a whole bunch of stuff out there about it.
But to save you time, here’s a fix:
After you create the QuickTime/h.264 file, open it up in QuickTime and select “Show Movie Properties.” Highlight the video track then click on the “Visual Settings” tab. Towards the bottom left you should see “Transparency” with a drop-down box next to it. Select “Blend” from the menu then move the “Transparency Level” slider to 100%. Right after that, choose “Straight Alpha” from the same drop-down and close the properties window. AND finally, “Save.”

I’m not sure about your audio sync issue but your keyframe setting is incorrect.
You should be working to a keyframe roughly every 10 seconds of video – so if you have a 25fps video your keyframes should be every 250. You never know, this may sort our your sync issue!__________________________________________________________________

IIRC just choose ‘4:3’ padding. It should figure how much to add for each file automatically.

I’m not promoting compressor – I don’t use it anymore because of various performance and reliability issues, but it’s all you have right now, so it’s worth giving it a chance….
Have a look at this page and the embedded links:
https://www.produxion.net/2008/04/08/hd-to-sd-conversion-the-holy-grail/I think one of the key things mentioned is the field dominance settings – Ken Stones method does not cover this.
If you still can’t produce better SD quality using those methods then it may be worth trying Episode (there is a free trial version). If you are unhappy with the output from Episode then you’ll not see a huge difference with CinemaCraft or Bitvice.

How were the videos shot? Format? SD or HD?
Progressive or interlaced?
What method and settings, in detail please, did you use to downconvert your animation in compressor?
Did you use the high quality settings in the Frame Controls and Geometry Controls in the inspector tab?
Did you deinterlace at the highest quality settings? –
Not using those controls is the most likely reason the downconvert looks bad, or that your expectations for SD material may be too high?__________________________________________________________________

MS MPEG-4 v3 = DivX 3. Both of which are totally obsolete but may still be requested by those who having been living under a stone for a while.
Try FFMPEGX – https://www.ffmpegx.com/

You need to add ‘Padding’ to your source. Look under the Geometry settings in the Inspector.
P.S. why 477×359? It’s a tricky resolution for a codec to deal with. Why not 480×360 which is a perfect size and it’s spot on 4:3?
