If you are using PotPlayer, change to MPV and see if that displays correctly

Check your OBS/other recording software video options, the source has to be Full color range and BT.709 color space as well, I know you said Premiere it looks right, but still try check that.

Check the Output - Video tab, the color range is supposed to be Full instead of Limited

Try 8bit instead of 10bit, both set in recording and Premiere export.

Thx, turns there's another setting in Premiere that need to be set to 8bit in addition to the one in Voukoder. Just weird the same encode settings with Handbrake doesn't have the problem.

It seems it is about the color range.

Code

Color range                              : Full
colour_range_Original                    : Limited

Can you try using the limited color range instead? AFAIK Limited is standard for most formats.

I’ve tried exporting in limited colour range but there’s no difference. Do you mean capture the original recording in limited?

When encoding some of my gameplay using Premier / Media encoder, the colour of is washed out for some reason compared to using Handbreak with the same settings. Preview in Premier Pro isn't washed out either.

I using Voukoder 10.1 Windows 10 Pro 21H2 Build 19044.1415.

Images too large for post so hosted externally:

Colour Test 10 Bit Full

Colour Test 10 Bit limited

Premier Pro Preview

Handbreak Encode

Source File

Any ideas where it might be going wrong? Thx!

The best Voukoder 5 settings for Youtube quality when exporting in 1440 or 2160p? Something that can make the best of the compression that the file will have to endure?

I'm having weird audio compression problems lately, but I'd like to know if there's been any discussion over this matter.

Are there settings that I can use that will be better than "leaving it at that"?

Youtube will re-encode anything you upload so it's best to keep your original video at highest quality possible; so go with a low CRF say ~12 and keep audio lossless.

Following this topic...follow up question: I'm uploading my videos to a Chinese video site, Bilibili. They have a 7G limit for file size...I've only been increasing the quantitizer so files can be smaller. Is there a setting, while maintaining decent quality, that will help make the file size smaller?

Take a look at iAvoe's post and scroll down to x265 Slow Hard

Use Preset: Medium, slow is 3x slower than medium and medium is already very slow to encode

I'll change Sample Adaptive Offset to No though, I'm not a fan of it's smoothing effect.

Base CRF off length and frame rate of your video

Using CRF24 should be enough for 2h movie and stay under 7GB

Audio: Vorbis

Strategy: VBR

Bitrate: Not sure if your doing Stereo or surround, See Opus Recommended Settings for appropriate bitrate

I'm not sure about After Effects if not, bring the project over to Media encoder, choose format as h264 then tick the Hardware Acceleration box

Hmm I'm not sure why it's not using your GPU, try using native NVENC option in Adobe, they added that option a while back.

Did you use NVENC as the encoder? Also if you applied denoise/ sharpening then it will use quite a bit of CPU power.

Voukoder is not a plugin that you put into PPro's plugin folder. You install it like any other program by running the msi file and also install the Connector: Premiere 1.2.5 program as well.

From my experience with NVENC, it bloats bitrate very quickly when there's movement in the video, perhaps your drone footage had quite a lot of movement? Also you shouldn't judge quality of the video just by it's bitrate when your using a contant quality, maybe try a CPU encoder like x264 or x265 with CRF 15 and see how they perform?
