    Hi, I recently installed ffmpeg and was doing conversions from youtube 720p to mp4.

    The quality of the video after is very pixilated and not as sharp

    Hi, its a custom made script.

    Not sure if it has something to do with the ffmpeg commands or what.

    Thanks!

    Try adding 
    -qscale 1
    Code (markup):
    parameter. If this won't solve your problem, we can look for another solution.
