I used to compose videos together using After Effects CS4 and the default settings for rendering produced good renders, but after I've upgraded to the CS6 version I notice jagged edges problem in my renders that I didn't have in CS4, and i'm using the default settings in CS6.
This is a screenshot of a video rendered using CS4 (default render settings):
This next one is rendered using AE CS6 (default render settings):
I have looked into the formats that both versions render at and tried to figure out what the difference is. To start off, the available formats given in CS4 seems a lot more different than those in CS6.
-CS4 rendered in a "Video for Windows" format by default and in Format Options it is Uncompressed, while CS6 doesn't have the "Video for Windows" option at all (and I can't find AVI format for CS4).
-In CS6 the default format is "AVI", and the Video Codec inside Format Option is "None" by default.
I'm not sure if this is why CS6 produces jagged edges in its videos. Does anyone know what I can do to render sharper videos in CS6 so i can stop using the CS4 version?
For example should I maybe change the format from AVI to something else? Change the Video Codec from None to something else?
