• Most new users don't bother reading our rules. Here's the one that is ignored almost immediately upon signup: DO NOT ASK FOR FANEDIT LINKS PUBLICLY. First, read the FAQ. Seriously. What you want is there. You can also send a message to the editor. If that doesn't work THEN post in the Trade & Request forum. Anywhere else and it will be deleted and an infraction will be issued.
  • If this is your first time here please read our FAQ and Rules pages. They have some useful information that will get us all off on the right foot, especially our Own the Source rule. If you do not understand any of these rules send a private message to one of our staff for further details.

Much, much more info will be needed to help out on this one. If you could post some info about your source file, project settings, render settings etc?

Okay so this happens to everything I want to render movies shows it doesn't matter. My projects settings are 1920x800 and 23.9 fps I haven't changed anything else and I render in the standard 1080p mp4.
The quality is not horrible but it ain't great either.

That's not what he means by project settings.

What are you putting into your editor? Lossless video in a codec like Lagarith or huffyuv in an AVI container? Professional-level "near lossless" codecs like ProRes? The unaltered Blu-Ray format of H.264 in an m2ts or MKV container? A ripped and reencoded Blu-Ray in H.264 format in an MKV or MP4 container?

What are your output settings? You say MP4, but that's a container that can mean many things. Is the codec H.264? H.265? MPEG-2? Are you using a set bitrate (like, say, 3000kbps)? Variable or constant bitrate? 1-pass or 2-pass encoding? Or are you using a constant quality encode, and if so, what's your CRF value? 18? 14? 22?

All of these things are important to figuring out why your quality isn't where you want it.

A screenshot could also help us. If we can see your settings in a screenshot we might be better able to help.

Good call, especially if everything in my post sounds like Greek to you. ;)

Those pictures are in terrible quality, I can't read a single thing because of how blurry it is.

You seem to be missing a screenshot (the last in the original image post), that isn't uploaded, instead it's just blank.

Out of curiosity, what's the size of the video file you're using as your source?

Please do. 18GB seems awfully big for an x264 file.

I'm seeing "25 fps" which isn't right. What program did you use to rip the blu-ray?
