Hi there,

I am recording videos in full HD with 30fps.

When converting with KDENLIVE to 720p the is
significant really significant visual quality loss.

I have been fighting with that issue for weeks and finally
I decided I will continue recording with fullHD.

However, when I upload videos to my provider
he only supports 720p so all my half year work is pointless
because all the videos ale bury because of this conversion.

Can anyone help

you have to use directly ffmpeg...

ffmpeg -i original1080.mp4 -vf scale=-1:720 -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -preset veryslow -c:a copy destination720.mp4

Thanks for the response, I tried it however, the result is the same.
There is not much improvement, I am wandering whether it is actually possible
to convert this.

I can't get is because I am doing from something with high quality
to someting which is a little bit [b]less quality[/b] and result is terrible.

try reducing CRF value to 0... (this is the best quality...)

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i original1080.mp4 -vf scale=-1:720 -c:v libx264 -crf 0 -preset veryslow -c:a copy destination720.mp4
