Hi(gh)!
https://youtu.be/znk0zrhUlkM - as announced, an "AtariSTized" version of
Dan Byer's Eye Candy #4 loop. When creating the video, it was clear and
crisp, but after uploading it: a sheer catastrophe! I really have no
clue how to set parameters in ffmpeg to get a decent quality...
See you in Khyberspace!

That does look bleak. Did it look good before you uploaded it?
These are my settings for 480p, which is 720x480. (Your 640x400 is an
oddball size).
ffmpeg -r 23.976 -i tteoac-%d.png -crf 24 -c:v libx264 -aspect 16:9
-pix_fmt yuv420p $OUTFILE
The -aspect is because 480p is wacky non-square pixels.
Lower numbers for -crf is higher quality. This is my 720p (1280x720)
ffmpeg -y -r 30 -i tteoac-%d.png -s hd720 -crf 18 -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt
yuv420p $OUTFILE
(and the new 1080p, which looks pretty awesome in previews)
ffmpeg -y -r 23.976 -thread_queue_size 512 -i tteoac-%d.png -c:v
libx264 -crf 18 -preset slow -level 4.1 -g 25 -bf 2 -pix_fmt yuv420p
$OUTFILE

The settings I used (for ffmpeg 3.2.2.3 running on Mac OS X El Capitan via
MacPorts):
ffmpeg -i A%04d.png -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -r 60 A.mov
The clock values in POV are set for a 24-FPS film, but I have to set -r to 60 to
get rid of herky-jerky frames that hang every second of runtime. I'm sure
there's a long and convoluted technical reason for it, but I have no clue what
it is (and as long as -r 60 solves my problem, I don't care)...

Did not work either... could it be that my Firefox uses a crappy Flash
plugin?

Does it look good locally? Use VLC to play movies on your PC, for best
results.

It is a bit better in Chrome but not much. Internet Explorer gives the
best view of the 3 browsers I have. It still looks grainy but not blocky.

Yes it does... and I in fact use VLC!

Meanwhile, I tried Konqueror (as I'm a Linuxer) - and, yes, it looks
much better, although still somewhat "compressed"!

It seems to be mostly a matter of the browser used... I tried displaying
it in Konqueror, and it looks MUCH better!
Another question: may AtariSTize/C64ize also your other Eye Candy
animations?
See you in Khyberspace!
