After rending, 50% of quality is always lost!

Hi,

I need some help with editing videos on Vegas Pro. I have tried 20 tutorial movies from youtube but still it's not good. I record my games in full-hd 60fps, where it all looks perfect. But after i render a movie and watch it back on my PC/Youtube it just loses 50% of the quality, sharpness, colors, everything.

Here is one of my movies wich just looks terrible after rendering. I don't know if it is really that poor or my gaming monitor is killing all the quality because it's just a fast TN panel screen.

 

Here are the settings i use now, i tried everything but the movies never get sharp and true colors quality, it gets more blocky and blurry, what do i miss?

I hope someone has some tips for me, i lost more then 100 hours on google about this but in the end not much improvment :(

1. Try a newer version of Vegas. The Magix AVC codec might work better, and is only available in Vegas 15 or later.

2. Try to click "2 pass" mode checkbox, it will make the encode take longer but the quality will be better.

3. Try to enable deblocking filter.

4. Understand that your deliverable format is never going to have the exact same quality as your source material, losing at least some quality is an inherent part of encoding any video file, especially for online delivery.

5. You can also try HEVC if you have Vegas 15 or later, it will give you more quality at the same bitrate.

Are you recordings variable frame rate?

Project Properties would seem to indicate that you are if you matched media properties and got a number like 58.564. Vegas Pro works better with constant frame rate than variable frame rate source material.

At 720p on a mobile device, I don’t have the same quality complaint as you.

Don't ever expect more than 50% quality back from YouTube. Resistance is futile.
