When compressing on Adobe Premiere Pro the compressed video seems to to be about a stop darker than when it was before compressing. Why does this happen? What can be done to avoid it?

Tom Cook February 14th, 2012, 06:33 PM Source format is a nikon D7000, 1080p 24fps .mov file. Harm Millaard February 15th, 2012, 04:11 AM Did you happen to use QuiRcktime to encode? There is a reason for that name, the gamma shift that QuiRcktime introduces. You may be better off and faster with using H.264 for your encodes. Battle Vaughan February 15th, 2012, 04:49 PM It's always seemed to me that Quicktime lightened, rather than darkening, the original, but maybe because the originals were done in FCP with quicktime and then looked light if played back with QT for PC.... Whatever, I have a D7000, if you want to let us know what your compression type and setting are, I'll see what I can experiment with, if you like. |
