Here's an image of what it looks like:iu_1295049_7061597.webp

Top is before export, Bottom is after export


I have tried changing the render quality, bitmap smoothing (there are no bitmaps btw), video codec and video bitrate but the colour difference remains. I have looked through the forums but i could't find anyone else with this problem. Please help

Sooo... It seems I am the only person here who struggled with this problem, but just incase somebody needs help with this problem aswell, here is a solution I found:


No matter what you change in Swivel, you can't avoid the colour change, so you have to change it afterwards in an editing program. ChatGPT was really helpful with chosing a good editing program. Since my computer is 12 years old and can't even run minecraft well, I had to settle for a program called "Kdenlive" which has low minimal requirements to run. In it I imported the video and added a filter called "change color matrix" under the tab "image adjustments". In "change color matrix" you can change 2 things: "source color matrix" and "destination color matrix". I changed "source color matrix" to "fcc" and kept "destination color matrix" as "smpte240m" which changes the colour of my animation closer to what it's supposed to look like.

So if Swivel chages all red colours to orange, now you know how to fix it :)
