Andy Minuth August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 Hi Thomas, sometimes keying the shadows and adding a skin-soften tool and some noise helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you prefered methods to deal with that? First I would check if the black point is not raised and that the shadows do not have too much contrast, I think both of these will "invite" the encoder to use a higher compression. Sometimes it helps to add large grain noise in the blacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
