    Is it really unnecessary to render before encoding? Rendering makes the result brighter?

      I remember reading that the Adobe Media Encoder will render when making its product, and therefore I don't have to render first on the timeline.

       

      But I always get a littler nervous when I see my timeline still unrendered after encoding.

       

      So I did a test and the h264 that was made from a timeline that I rendered first was brighter, not clearer but brighter.

       

      Am I seeing things?
