I've spent hours searching all over the interwebs and trying every combination possible, but I cannot for the life of me get Premiere to maintain the quality of my video from a screen capture. This is for a software demo video I am making. Here are the settings for the video capture:
Recorded with ocam screen recorder (http://ohsoft.net/product_ocam.php). This produced decent quality, not perfect, but definitely readable.
Microsoft MPEG 4 part 3 (.AVI) codec
1024x768
30fps
6000Kbps bitrate
When I view the files in Windows Media Player or Quicktime they look fine (again, not perfect, but definitely usable)
However, when I import them into Premiere Pro the preview adds artifacts, especially around black text on white background.
My sequence settings in Premiere match the original video:
1024x768
Square pixels aspect ratio
30fps
Exporting produces the same problem, artifacts all over.
Oddly, sometimes the artifacts disappear, such as when a window is moved with the cursor. Suddenly all the text in that window gets clear for a second.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
