I downloaded 22.04.2 today for the first time and didn't changed anything in the render window as i usually do and was quite surpruised. Also somebody on reddit had the same problem (i think).

In the last version, the custom quality slider on the right of the render window is checked by default, and is set on 3%. This makes the default rendering quality absolutely horrendous.



STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download the last version
2. put whatever on the timeline
3. click render, MP4, render to file

OBSERVED RESULT
bad quality (test2)

EXPECTED RESULT
when i unchecked the custom quality slider, i got better results (test1)

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
here are some videos, sorry i couldn't upload them here, and thought youtube might mess with the quality : https://www.sendspace.com/filegroup/sxPXoDXtzjBY6tj2xEqYYQ
