Hello Mirillis team :geek: !

Very awesome software i have bought.
I have not problem to record Minecraft on high definition HD so, very very good job.

My problem comes when i want to encode my Minecraft video, before, when i watch my record, video is very smooth like i play minecraft but after the encoding, video is blurred. I choose auto profil ( & bitrate ).

( i can send to you twice videos )
* I don't have this problem when i encoding Mirror's Edge (full screen)
Thanks for your help if you have a solution

I tend to use an external encoder (no offense to mirillis), and I produce great encodes. They're doing something wrong? Which settings did you use?

Could you post a screenshot of your exporting settings?

I think "Auto / Normal" is... normal. If you're looking for top quality, why not try HIGH quality? Resulting file looks spectacular, for a third of the original. (did a test)

Try using Handbrake to encode videos instead
its much better and the output (choose MP4) works perfectly for Youtube/Vimeo
remember to select 30 frames per second if you want to upload to online services (they down convert anyways)

I have tried Mirillis Export function and the settings vs output is not always clear .. sometimes the output is 60fps other times its not :(

Auto profile always export your video in 60fps, other profiles downgrade your fps count to 30.

@ radi: You should really let us decide the framerate we want... You have profiles with different framerates, it's not indicated anywhere, we have to keep a list to know which is which? I find it a bit stupid...

Handbrake use LIBAV engine, its not decode FIC codec.

For any external encode try RIPBOT264 or VIRTUALDUB.
