when i am rendering my timelapse ( FULL HD 1920 X 1080 / 30 FPS ) in the movie
( MP4 ) are some color changes in large areas of solid color. ( example blue sky )
What is the problem, the single pictures are all OK ?
Thank you for some tips an sorry for my bad english.

That is banding caused by the mpg encoder. Especially if you have a lot of movement in the bottom part of the sequence, all the bandwidth will go there, leaving not much for the sky - banding gets visible.

To prevent this, shoot with longer Exposures (ND-filter) - for existing sequences use higher quality settings when rendering and use the LRT Motion Blur Plus feature.
Thanks gunther for the fast answer. Now i have same options to check and hope the quality from my timelapse goes up.
Ciao Matthias
