NEED HELP IMMEDIATELY PREMIERE PRO HELP! (It ruins video via color)

[AgentLOL]

Ok, so I made a video with a profile High 444 and a 1gbit bitrate. Its around 50 minutes long. When I put it in Premiere Pro, when it finishes processing it, the video in the editor looses dramatic amounts of color, and is mostly grayscale. Why is that? BTW its also lossy, and VLC can play it with ease. Also, when encoding it to Handbrake in ANY possible way, it has huge amounts of artifacts. How do I work around this!

This video came from OBS.

Try rendering the video to .mp4 format

It is originally a mp4, it came from OBS. I've tried rendering it as an mkv and mp4.

I'm having the exact same problem as you are, so far no good solution for me. I'll be watching for any answers here, if you want to follow my other questions the links are below.

What I've done so far was to process the video using Handbrake, but I might not have set things correclty since it got way smaller and a bit too compressed in quality for what I was looking for. I used the simple setup on this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkMsGxM2ZDg

My other questions are here, good luck.

Yeah, seems a few people are getting this. Don't use the special settings for Nvidia, just use NVDefault. I switched to Dxtory, and its been amazing. But ur GPU will be much better for long recordings.

Also, recently there has been an update on the Multiplatform version of OBS. It now has the NVENC encoding feature, but only for Windows 10 for now, support for it on other platforms will come later on development. And since that version is a rewrite of the program it has a lot of new features and improved code.

I've tested recording with that version and the videos are finally the way I wanted them, with the added bonus of being able to record audio from windows and from my microphone on separate tracks. Great quality, low CPU load, and no problem rendering anymore.

BTW guys, you get increased load by using OBS, so I usually don't reccomend unless you're using NVENC. But since everyone here im assuming is NVENC it doesnt matter lol. If you want to do tons of editing to it, its better to go raw.
