Hey /g/
so I made a you tube video but I cant get sony vegas to output nice looking files that actually look nice.(that are not huge)
the video was 2.5 mins but took 11.5 mins to render, was 495mb, and it doesnt look very nice. I could get one that looked as good as the source but it was 13gb....
The source recording isnt great quality, but i find it acceptable, id like the final version to be much closer to the original.
here is a link to the video on youtube and ill post a comparison of the source recording and the final copy. https://youtu.be/OLo53u-1LH0
if you guys have any suggestions for better software than vegas, or a better screen capture than shadow play, that would also be appreciated.
examples of it looking slightly shittier
and an example of the original

try gentoo, it was good last time I tried
What encoding settings are you using, what's the traget resolution, etc.. If you have no idea, just post screenshots of the interface.

the source is 1080p 60fps, so is the target,
here is a screen shot of my video settings in vegas.

'here is the info on the source recording

If you have an nvidia GPU then the "encode mode" option uses that. Hardware encoding on nvidia is pretty shitty. You can try disabling that, then it should perform the encoding on the CPU. You can try upping the reference frame count to 4 and definitely turn on the deblocking filter. I don't even know why the latter would ever be disabled. Setting the number of slices to 1/0 could further increase quality. If all else fails, increase average bitrate further.

Render it out in lossless and encode to x264 with hybrid.

i tired rendering it in lossless, but the only way icould get it to in vegas made a 13gb file, for only about 15seconds.

thanks for the help man. ill try those things.

Have you tried ffmpeg? never used sony vegas but the lack of rendering options (from screenshot) looks like its some fucking ipad app.
Or maybe change codec, something that will allow you to customise quality options
>>59800974
the codec im using now is actually the only one that at 60fps. the settings are kinda shit and lacking a lot of options.
ive been trying to get ffmepg to work but i haven't figured it out yet, and it will only accept 50fps.
