Horizontal lines in video playback from timeline

I haven't had this problem before this year. I get a quick 1-2 second squiggly line horizontally through the video even on still image segments several times while playing video from the timeline. It's not always there and I could play through it two times and see it and the third time it may not be there. I also exported a clip from a still photo sequence.. the clip played fine.
I do not see any lines in the quicktime files when played in Quick time.
I use a older mac.... G4.. 733... I've been afraid to update system software and FCP because it's been doing fine until this problem.
Thanks for any help/suggestions anyone can offer!
G4 733   Mac OS X (10.2.x)   1gig RAM, 4 HD's

Your footage is interlaced, and you exported to an interlaced format. For computer viewing or upload to a web video service like YouTube, you want to deinterlace your footage; in AME, this is done automatically when you export with Field Order set to Progressive (None).
And get rid of K-Lite. Quickly.

  • FCP 7 Why do I get these horizontal lines on my playback?

    I'm working in Final Cut with 1920x1080 Apple Pro Res footage. For some reason I keep getting these
    horizontal lines when I playback footage on my timeline or viewer. What is this?

    When I export to quicktime there are no horizontal lines. It's only a problem in FCP.
    So when I transcode my footage for FCP to Apple Pro Ress 422 (HQ) I should click 'deinterlace video' rather than 'interlace scaling' Is that what you're saying?
    Thanks for your help!

  • Video playback from PB17 to Sony TV firewire port ?

    I'm wondering if it's possible to get video playback from my PowerBook 17 to a Sony HDTV firewire port ? I can't see in prefs where you can do this. Is there some software that enables this? I tried to select firewire playback from Final Cut Pro even and that didn't work either. The TV recognises the Powerbook. I don't think it's possible but why not try?
    Powerbook G4 1.33GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   2 GB RAM + I want Seagate Momentus 5400.3 160GB HD

    This is what abrody has to say on the subject.
    Yes, but only at 720 x 480 resolution. Some TVs offer higher resolutions and DVI ports where you can do a DVI to DVI connection. And actually there was a dongle which came with your Powerbook which supports S-Video via its S-Video port.

  • Pictures taken with my 1D Mark IV show a blue horizontal line at the bottom from ISO 400 onwards.

    Pictures taken with my 1D Mark IV show a blue horizontal line at the bottom from ISO 400 onwards. So far nobody has been able tot tell me the cause of this problem. The body is still quite new (15000 pics taken).

    I agree that it looks like a column of photosites is not working.  But... I'm curious as to why this would only happen at ISO 400 or above. 
    The sensor is covered with photosites -- they are monochrome.   On top of the photosites is the "bayer mask".  The mask is a checkboard pattern of red, green, and blue "lenses" which makes the photosite beneath only sensitive to that particular color.  They are group in clusters of 4 photosites in a 2x2 matrix.  Two of the four squares (in opposing corners) are green.  One corner is red.  One corner is blue.  If you were to lose a column which happens to be along the red/green column (as opposed to the green/blue) then you'd lose red sensitive and half the green sensitivity in that column.  The result would be that this column is flanked by two "working" columns which are full of green/blue photosites... hence the teal blue look.
    I do not know if this will work for you, but oddly... you can actually sometimes "clear" stuck pixels (but usually this is an indvidiual stuck pixel... not a whole column of them) by putting the camera into manual sensor cleaning mode (and you may have to do this 2 or three times).  While the normal point of the self-cleaning mode is to flip up the reflex mirror and open the shutter so that you can inspect and clean the sensor (really the front-most filter because you can't actually touch the real sensor), it also neutralizes the charge on the sensor (or so I've read).  This charging and discharging of the sensor a few times can often get "stuck" pixels to start working again.  BUT AGAIN... I've only ever seen this used on individual stuck pixels... never a whole row.

  • I am having problems with video playback from the Internet such as you tube on my iPad. What's up?

    I am having trouble with video playback from the Internet such as you tube. What's up?

    Your video playback will also depend on your net speed. If you have slow internet, you will stream video slow. If your video stops and starts, you can try pausing it for a minute or so and then try to watch. Let more of it buffer before you try to watch.
    Sometimes your connection is so slow you literally play faster than it buffers, which means it stops and stutters continually

  • Why do I get faint horizontal lines when I print from elements 12 mac

    why do I get faint horizontal lines when I print from elements 12 mac

    Hi Ben,
    I can't reproduce that behavior.  The only two things I can think of at the moment are (1) you accidentally added a shortcut as a panel shortcut instead of a diagram shortcut or (2) the name of the object you specified isn't for the "Multiply" node, but for some other node (you said "Multiplication" in your initial post) that can only be dropped in certain places (i.e. maybe it's a node that is only valid in Simulation diagrams).  Can you post the following lines from your LabVIEW INI file so I can look into it further:
    QuickDropDiagramShortcuts
    QuickDropPanelShortcuts
    Let me know,
    -D
    Edit:  Yeah, what he said.

  • Video playback from Final Cut Pro studders over HDMI

    I have a problem playing back video from FCP. The video output will studder during horizontal pans when I output via HDMI. The audio output is not affected.
    I have been playing video successfully using FireWire for output in FCP, however, my new video switcher system will not support FireWire output.
    What are some possible causes of this problem?
    System stats:
    * Mac Mini (2010 model)
    * 8GB RAM
    * OS X 10.6.4 (Snow Leopard)
    * Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 (Final Cut Studio 3)

    @ Studio X : The files were originally created with Final Cut Pro, rendered out to QuickTime, then are being played back with Final Cut Pro. The file that has the most noticable studdering is a 60-minute timeline sequence in Final Cut. All files are being stored and played back from the Mac Mini's internal hard drive. Everything was originally shot on DV and formatted for a 4:3 aspect ratio.
    @ Shane Ross : Are there any settings in the MacOS or FCP where I can improve the HDMI video signal? Or do you know of / have any experience with Firewire to HDMI converters? Unfortunately, my new signal path relies on HDMI from the video playback.
    My current setup uses the Firewire output, which is then converted to composite video & analog audio using a pair of ageing DV tape decks. That setup is becoming troublesome due to age.

  • Horizontal lines across video in Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0

    I had used a software called Virtualdub to deinterlace and remove lots of garbage from the edges of a video. I had also used a software called Neat Video inside of Virtualdub to remove a lot of grains from my vhs video.   I prefer to use Adobe Premiere because it's superior to Virtualdub when it comes to color correction.   That is my own opinion, however,  I imported the video from Virtualdub into Adobe Premiere.  I did some color corrections on my vhs video.  The video looks a whole better than the original.  I saved the video with the color correction and exported it as an avi file.  I exported the same video into Pinnacle to burn on a dvd.  I noticed that the video had a lot of  fine horizontal lines going across it.  I would like to know what am I doing wrong with all of  these procedures.  I'm a beginner trying to learn how to use Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0. for video editing.  I would like to use this software totally to edit my video instead of using Pinnacle software. I hope that my problem isn't too complicated.  Thanks.
    Gerald Sr.

    You can do everything in Premiere: you do not need VD or Pinnacle.
    First of all I would not deinterlace nor get rid of the edge gargage of the original footage in VD.
    Depending on how the deinterlacing is being done, it still will bring down the quality off the footage.
    If its for dvd on a standalone player just leave it interlaced.
    Edge garbage is easily removed in Pro2 by scaling up the footage a tiny bit.
    I would only use Neat Video in VD and export the footage to avi with the Lagarith codec which will give you a lossless file.
    http://lags.leetcode.net/codec.html
    Or skip VD and get Neat Video as a plugin for Premiere
    In Premiere you can create dvd's and besides it has a much better mpeg2 encoder then Studio has.

  • No audio playback from timeline in fcp x.

    i have an issue with audio playback from the timeline. i can see it on the VU meter, but i can't hear it. i can hear it in the clip in the event library, but when i drop it to the timeline i hear nothing. i have changed settings in audio setup but nothing seems to work. i use a blackmagic intensity pro card to route audio to external speakers.
    everything works as it should with all other software including fcp 6, itunes etc.
    i also tried some headphones (after setting audio output to headphones) but still could not hear anything.
    what am i doing wrong?

    just tried one more time to re-route audio through line out and it worked!! so changed back to blackmagic card and VIOLA!! there it is.
    this forum is amazing, all you need to do is post a question, you don't even have to wait for an answer.
    cheers and thanks from OZ.

  • Horizontal Lines During Video

    I'm hearing lots of problems with horizontal lines and all on the 20" iMac. I'm having a similar problem, but different circumstances.
    See, whenever I play video, including DVDs, files in Quicktime, and even footage in the Viewer in Final Cut Pro, there are strange horizontal lines that show whenever there's significant motion onscreen.
    For example:
    http://files.upl.silentwhisper.net/upload0/Picture_1-rxc.png (from a DVD)
    http://files.upl.silentwhisper.net/upload0/Picture_3.png (DV video in Final Cut Pro)
    (2 .png files there)
    I've updated to 10.4.7, but the problem persists. Even my girlfriend is having the problem, and she bought a stock 20" from the Apple Store, whereas mine was ordered online.
    One last thing - when I made a movie on her iMac recently, the lines even showed up on the DVD copy, when played on a DVD player. What's the deal? Anyone know?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.
    ~ Joseph
    P.S. I posted this over in the iMac Display forum as well, but no one has replied to it - I brought it over here in the hopes that someone could answer my question.

    Have your tried viewing it on other hardware, say another iMac or even gasp an IBM/PC compatible, or writing it to DVD to view on a consumer DVD player? Try this out to see if the horizontal lines appear on these as well.
    I know it won't solve any problems, but at least you'll find out whether it's a problem with the iMac playing he video or a problem with the video files you are creating.
    Actually, I think I'm going to try and dig out some of my old video stuff to see how that plays on my iMac. I'll report back if I expereince anything like you are.
    Best of luck!

  • Inadequate video playback from camera video

    I have a Panasonic Lumix DMC FX07 camera. I took some awesome soccer video and was puzzled that I needed Quicktime to view it on my computer. I was sad to see that the video playback was horrible - all audio and jerky video. The video plays fine on my camera. So my first question is: (1) what's wrong with video playback? My second question is (2) do I seriously have to pay $30 to upgrade to Quicktime Pro just to save MY own video to my computer? I am obviously reluctant to do this if the free version of the software does not even work correctly. My computer is basic but I've upgraded the memory and other videos (streaming, my canon camera etc) work fine so please leave off the poor computer specs reasoning. Some honest feedback would be welcome as I am hopefully just not doing something exactly right. Thanks in advance!

    I found a sample video from this camera on the web and it's working for me in the newest QT 7.6. I tried also mplayer and VLC player - both are able to play the video, so try them. You can also use them to convert video to another format (mplayer is just player, but it's shipped with mencoder that can do it).
    If none of the players is working for you, try to post somewhere small sample video from your cam - I'll take a look on it.

  • How to prevent video playback from getting paused when switching to another tab on Firefox for Android?

    In Firefox for Android 27.0, if you play video in one tab and while it's playing you switch to another tab, the video gets paused. I want the video to continue to play while I'm viewing another tab (so I can at least hear its sound!).
    How can I do that?
    How can I prevent Firefox for Android from pausing video playback when switching to another tab?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi hamid_ss,
    Currently Firefox for Android does this by default with embedded players. Some sites go automatically to full screen too which may be what you are running into. Try it.

  • Video playback from iTunes keeps pausing

    Just bought an ipad air and synced it with my itunes. However video playback keeps pausing and I have to either restart the video app or rewind a minute or so to get it to keep playing. Even then it doesnt always work.
    Any ideas what the problem may be?

    I have the same problem. I have a g4 466 with a gigabite of ram. I installed the latest iTunes/quicktime updates. I downloaded a tv show, and it was nearly unwatchable, it dropped so many frames. What gives?
