Poor Video Quality After Export

I used Brightness & Contrast as well as Three-Way Color Corrector to edit. When I export, I lose almost all of the color quality. I have tried QuickTime, H.624, and a number of different Codecs and it always comes out the same. I have pushed the bit rate all the way up as well. I'm not sure what else to do

To better understand, when you saw poor quality, that is compared to what? The original clip?
Are you viewing both on the same monitor? If you remove the effects, does the quality look better?

Very poor video quality after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I have very poor video quality after transcoding the video file (MPEG) in Adobe Encore CS5.1. Below you see my used settings in my filmproject.
The problem exists after transcoding in Adobe Encore CS5.1. I checked all steps and found out that there is no problem until transcoding. My exported file in MPEG has very good video and audio quality.
Facts:
1. Camcorder: Panasonic AG-AC160AEJ
Operating System : Windows 7, 64 Bit, Ultimate edition
Source files: MTS files
Recording settings (clip settings):
Type: MPEG Movie
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Frame Rate: 25,00
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1,0
2. Sequence settings in Premiere Pro
Sequence was created from Clip directly with settings above.
3. Exporting settings in Adobe Premiere Pro:
Match sequence settings was activated. Now other changes were set.
4. Exported File:
Video
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Data Transfer Rate: 25920 kBit / s
Frame rate: 25
Audio:
Bit rate: 384 kBit / s
Channels: 2 (stereo)
Frequence: 48 kHz
5. Transcoding settings in Adobe Encore:
I used different transcoding settings such as automatic DVD Transcoding, CBR and VBR.I also set “use maximum render quality”. But all results were always the same: very poor quality.
Why does the encore transcoding cause such bad video quality?
How can I solve this problem?
Please help me soon.
Best regards.

Hi Ann,
1) I did not only „Automatic (based on source)“ options in my tests, but also many other customized options.
The results are very poor. I have done a new test with the following settings. The result is also poor:
Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_mpeg2dvd_1.m2v
Export Settings:
Format: MPEG2-DVD
Preset: Custom
Codec: MainConcept MPEG Video, Quality: 5
Frame Rate: 25 fps
Field Order: Upper
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Automatic (based on source)
Render at Maximum Rate: [active]
Bitrate Encoding: VBR, 2 pass
Minimum Bitrate (Mbps): 5
Target Bitrate (Mbps): 9
Maximum Bitrate (Mbps): 9
GOP Settings
M Frames: 4
N Frames: 12
Use Maximum Render Quality: [active]
Multiplexer: None
2) Why shouldn’t I use the “Match Sequence Settings” in exporting? Because of the big output file size?
I used it and the results are very good as I expected:
Download link: http://www.klavierlehrer-bayern.de/download/test_MatchSequenceSettings.mpeg
Export Settings
Match Sequence Settings [selected]
1920 x 1080, 25 fps, Upper, Quality 50
User Maximum Render Quality: [active]
3) I tried also Dynamic Link in PremierePro (to Encore).
The results are also poor.
4) I will test also LagarithLoslessCodec and frameserving +DGMPGDec. But the video is vertical long drawn-ot.
I think I did not use it correctly.
Regards

Poor video Quality when exporting to DVD

I cant seem to get a clear video. I am downloading from DV from a canon and the quality is sentational.
When on the time line averything is brilliant. When rendereing everything is still ok.
When exporting to DVD it goes pear shaped. I have tried dozens of different variations with the same results.
I am in AUstralia and am using PAL.
I get motion blur and what appears to be very poor quality result after exporting.
Help... I dont have much hair left.
Premier Pro Tragic

@Harm,
"Pear-shaped" (or sometimes "fruit-shaped") is a euphemism meaning that the effort has gone awry; it was a mess.
@John,
Export to DVD is a PPro 2.0 function; in CS3 it is now Export to Encore. Is that what you meant?
First thing is to check the field orders of your source material and of your export settings. Don't invert them, and don't deinterlace interlaced footage.
Perhaps a short list of the settings you have tried (and why you chose those settings) would help us help you.

How do I fix poor video quality when exporting from Keynote to iMovie

I went through Keynote to create a movie from a PowerPoint (including a soundtrack) but the video quality is very poor in the final product. Is there a way to fix this?

file > export > Quicktime > custom > then select one of the codecs: MPEG-4, standard DV, HDV, AVCHD, Apple Intermediate Codec and use full size in the options.

IMovie - Poor Video Quality when exporting to "Projects"

Hi - I'm using iMovie 11' and once I move my video (HD) from "Events" to "Projects" my video quality becomes very poor and the video is cropped. I have changed my setting to have it "fit frame" but the problem still exists. Thoughts?

Poor audio quality after exporting to .MOV.

Voiceover in my video sounds crystal clear in the timeline but then thin and "rattley" after export when playing back with Quicktime player. Background music on other tracks always seems to be unaffected. Audio export set to AAC, 48 kHZ, Stereo. I must export to a Quicktime .mov format because it's the only file type that I can upload to YouTube without the color quality being distorted after upload. Adobe Updater says all of my programs are updated.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

How did you record the VO? is it a mono or stereo track, how are you viewing the export. Sometimes when just one section of the audio is wrong it is due to audio phase problems, I have not seen this with a vo before but it might be the issue. See:
Re: 1 of 2 audio tracks missing on certain browsers (h.264)

Poor video quality when exporting from Adobe Premiere

Hey, I was just wondering if there was anyone here that could help me with this problem I am having with Adobe Premiere Pro.
I have used it to edit a movie together with MOV video files from my iPhone 3GS which are of decent quality but everytime I try to export it, the video quality is degraded significantly from the original. I have tried several different export options but none seem to do the trick.
Also, exporting with DivX just gives me an audio file with no video so I have been unable to try that.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

Poor Video Quality after Streaming

Dear all,
We have been provided with a number of .mpg files from a
client and we have streamed then into Flash, using the usual
settings. When streamed however, the resulting video is of a poorer
quality than the original file.
Just wondering if anyone had any ideas - we are probably
doing something wrong, but we've tried a number of various options
when importing.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
The videos produced may be seen at:

Many thanks

Hi B,
We used - at encoding screen:
Profile - Custom
Video Codec - tried On2 and Spark
Quality - High
Frame Rate - Same as Source
Key Frame Placement - Automatic
We used similar settings for .WMV files in the past and the
video quality was fine, but with .MPG files, the resulting quality
is much less than the original.
Best wishes

Poor video quality after rendering or publishing iMovie video - Problem?

After completing production of an iMovie video and then publishing it, the video quality is absolutely horrible. Is the normal or am I doing something wrong?

I hope the iMovie programming team at Apple is READING THESE POSTS, plus the other threads complaining of the lousy quality that results when interlaced video (480i or 1080i) is imported into iMovie '09 (even with all the recent updates). Various folks and e-book authors have posted workarounds, but these are cumbersome and defeat the entire purpose of iMovie -- which should be a simple and elegant video editing solution. Millions of users have interlaced video which they would like to edit (for you novices, you're affected if your video was shot on mini-DV tapes, or the HDV format -- plua many other non-tape formats also use interlaced video, so check your camera's specs).
Apple, PLEASE ADDRESS THIS GLARING FLAW in iMovie '09. It's absurd that iMovie 6/HD, which worked flawlessly with DV and HDV footage, is no longer supported. IMovie '09 has many great features, but what value are they if the end-product looks bad?

Poor video quality when exporting

I am new to Premiere and don't know all the functions yet. (at all)
I have wto questions.
I have successfully imported and edited my video, but it seems, that the final result (the preview at the right) is cutting off the edges of my video.
I have tried the "Scale to frame size" function, and then it looks better. But I think it's quite strange, that it fits perfectly in the left preview...?
My second issue is when I import the video. It should be recorded in full HD or at least 720p, but when I export it it is in 576p.
It's pretty hard for me to tell what I do when I export, so here's one more screenshot:
I use .avi and have tried to do the "Use maximum render quality" but it still seems to be poor quality.
Can anyone tell me (in an easy way) how to fix this and how to prevent the edges of being cut off?
Thank you so much for your time!

If you shot HD or 16:9 footage you should have edited in a Sequence that matche that Source. ie NOT SD

Poor video quality when exporting hd

I created a photo slideshow in iMovie HD. I used the hdv 1080i60 preset. when i preview it in iMovie the footage looks great. when I try to share it in an hd format(1080i or 720p) the movie looks really choppy. if i export it to a standard resolution it plays fine.
I don't think hardware is an issue.
How can I export it to HD and keep the quality i have when i preview?

Hello--
I'm trying to do the same thing, need to make a slide show of high res photo's imported into iMovie HD6 so that I can control titles, transitions and music. The quality looks terrible when converted to IMovie. I don't see how you change the HDV preset anywhere in iMovie, the only thing I see in the preferences menu is playback - standard, high and highest. In any case I selected highest and the frames looks terrible--maybe 320x280 but no way of telling, no detail in pictures whatsoever.
Thnks for any help you can shed.

Poor video quality after iPhoto import

Hi all,
I used to make videos with my iPhone 4S for quite some time. Quality was always as expected.
Now I got an iPhone 5S and make even nicer high res videos. When I watch the vidoes on my iPhone quality is as perfect as it can be on a smartphone.
Now I import the videos to iPhoto. When I watch them in iPhoto (or edit them in iMovie) the quality is often awful! Sound lags, fragments, 'green screens', lots of pixels...
Any ideas to overcome this?
Thanks in advance,
Tobias

Import one to the desktop from your phone with Image Capture (in the Applications Folder). How does that compare?

Video Quality After Transcoding Disappointing In CS4

To All,
I am new to Encore so my situation may be as a result of my ignorance. I have come to appreciate HD video so I purchased a Hauppauge HD PVR to capture programs in HD. I have captured multiple HD video clips in a .mp4 format. I bring those clips into Premier Pro CS4 and when viewing them individually, they look great - crisp, clear video that looks fantastic. Once I have put my video together (consisting of several clips that is about 1 hour long total), I then select Adobe Dynamic Link and send the project to Encore to burn onto a 25GB blu-ray disc. I have tried 2 or 3 different settings in Encore and the result is a video that is 1920 x 1080 full screen but the video quality is disappointing. It's as though a "soft filter" is used in the video effectively taking away the crisp, clean video I see in the original clips I imported into Premier Pro - the very thing I have come to love about HD (ex: beads of sweat on faces, seeing individual strands of hair on someones head, etc.). Am I being unrealistic to expect the same quality video after being transcoded in Encore that I see in the individual clips I originally inported into Premier Pro or I am I just doing something wrong? Thanks for the help in advance!

It sounds like you are familiar with Encore. Let me ask this general question. Can one expect to achieve the same video quality after transcoding in Encore as the video originally imported or is some loss inevitable?
Actually, this should answer both questions.
What happens first is that your capture device/card will compress the signal originally. You then Import this footage into PrPro for editing. It will not be edited in it native format, as it is compressed and is also GOP (Group of Pictures) format, i.e. there are not real Frames to edit. These must be created for Frame editing. Now, you're working pretty much in a good replication of your initially compressed files. Here comes the problem: you now wish to Export to a BD. You need to re-compress and Transcode this material in PrPro to a format that can be used on a BD player. A second compression and Transcode will need to take place.
As an example, lets use FAX machines and desktop printers. You create a document in Word and print it out with your 1200 dpi desktop printer. This is a pretty high quality document. It's like the HD TV signal. Next, you run your original document printout through your copy machine. This still looks pretty good, but not up to the original. This is what your capture card has now produced. Then, you take that copy and FAX it to a friend. It now starts to show degradation. This is like that second compression and Transcoding.
Not sure what a better workflow would be for HD TV capture.
Good luck,
Hunt

Router Type: Symmetric - poor video quality (blocky)

Hi,
Back in October I posted a question about poor video quality...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2197561
I wanted to posted a resolution, but apparently the topic "has been archived - replies are not allowed." so I have opened this new one.
With thanks to Ralph for his always informative response and Luis Villazon from MacFormat (Q&A Issue 221) I had a better understanding of the issue, but unfortunately the suggestions failed to resolve the issue.
Then I discovered the DrayTek Vigor 120 ADSL2+ Ethernet Modem.
This is a true modem in that it does nothing else, nothing fancy, no NAT, not DHCP. Just a modem.
Connecting this to the AEBS and setting the 'Connect Using' parameter to PPoE gave control back to the Airport.
iChat now works as expected.
You might say the 'Vigor 120' is the Airport's missing modem !
Regards
Richard

Thanks for letting us know.

L7780 poor print quality after not using for 6 months

Poor print quality after not using my printer for about 6 months. Ran thru the tools (clean printhead, aligh, etc . . .) didn't help. Replaced all chartridges, still no help.
I'm fairly tech savy, been in IT for 27 years starting with hardware support.
Question, can I manually clean the printheads or should I just replace. I would rather try to clean them manually after just shelling out > $ 170 on new chartridges.
thanks
Brent

Hi @Brentl
Yes, you can clean the printhead and the inside of the printer. The following document will help; 'The Following Printheads are Missing or Damaged, Replace the Printhead' Message Displays on the All....
I hope this helps.
