Is your original footage interlaced? What codec are you rendering to? Is there any other information you can give us about your workflow (where the footage is coming from, how it's interpreted, what you're doing to it, how you're rendering it... etc.)?

no. the footage is not interlaced. its an hd footage 1920x1080 from an handy cam (canon hv20)
im doing regular stuff like adjusting levels and place some designs in it.
im rendering with quicktime photo-jpeg preset every thing in the best quality. the comp is in the full quality.
im asking this because i did a second render with "video for windows" with no compression and the colors were perfect. in the quicktime render that doesnt happen

I'm not sure what the issue might be. It could be related to a gamma shift due to the codec, but I wouldn't think so. How are you viewing your final output?

i think it might be the codec. i used photo jepg but now i made another render with jepg 2000 and the colors are perfect but the video is to large compared to the other. 30 megabytes to 130 mgabytes.
