Thanks Rob I think your experience is about 4 floors above me, I’m not at that stage yet, Im just experimenting with premiere pro export features with DSL footage.
You did provoke another observation though, because I have great and average results in the same sequence after a render I got the feeling some of my org footage was already on the borderline of pixelated because of the low light. After zoooming in on these sections it is very noisey which exaggerates after compression.
Looks like im on the cusp of compression sensitivity. Hard to solve this
