I think it's less what you're doing at the encoding stage and more what you're doing at the filming stage - the lighting on your clip is nowhere near as good as the example you post to compare. I don't see any if any difference in the encode quality between the two.
You'll also probably only get dropped frames if you physically reduce the frame rate in the encoding settings. Make sure this is set as the same as the source. There should also be a setting for the complexity of the encode somewhere.
I also not that you are using a different version of WMV for the encode. Gspot says WMV2 for the video you posted as an example and WMV3 for your test. |
