Having an issue with MPEG-2 DVD exports using CBR instead of VBR. I've always used CBR before with no problems at all. Now, when I export with CBR (actual bitrate doesn't matter), I get this weird pulsing artifacting in the video. It doesn't do it in VBR, but I'm not altogether happy with how crossfades turn out with VBR (lots of blocking).
I'm using the latest versions of Premiere CC and AME CC. The source video files I'm converting are Quicktime ProRes 422LT files at 1920x1080 23.97. I'm on an iMac running Mavericks - 3.5ghz i7 32gb RAM with NVIDIA GTS 780M with 4gb video RAM.
Any ideas or help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
