Really bad video quality on my Samsung D series 79...

Hi,
I recently got a web camera for my Samsung D series 7900 LED TV. I bought the newer VG-STC2000 camera to enable skype. The good news is the camera seems to work good. My macbook air which is receiving the video from the camera shows it very well. (occasional skips and jumps, but nothing too horrible). The problem is the video that is being received by the television. While I've verified through computer clients that I can receive video on my home network quite well on a home desktop machine, the skype client on the TV seems to have a lot of trouble rendering a picture about 80% of the time. I get garbled pictures. It's almost as if the buffer in the Samsung can't keep up or can't handle network jitter.
here's a sample of what the TV picture looks like most of the time.

Areas of movement get distorted. Any ideas on how to fix it? Is it a problem with the Skype software? My network settings? (I have 30 Mbits down and 5 Mbits up at home through Time Warner Cable). I have no packet loss, but moderate amounts of jitter when I measure my network with a speed test / voip simulator.

It's 100% reproducable. It happens typically a minute or two into the call. If the caller turns the camera off and then back on, the image clears up and then in a minute or two degrades again. But it happens on every call.
Primary caller has been a Mac (using a macbook air with the built in facetime camera). Skype version 5.8.0.1027. The Mac has little trouble viewing the image from the samsung camera. It skips every now and then, but quickly recovers and the audio has no problems.
I've replicated the error from the mac laptop with the laptop connected to my home network (the same network as the Samsung TV). Only other variable is that the samsung tv is connected through wifi, but I've seen other complaints that say that hard wiring the tv doesn't seemt to fix it.
The network speed of the mac typically is over corporate lan speeds (can transfer a 6 gig file in about an hour).

Still bad video quality

even is catalyst cs 5.5 two of my problems do not resolve.
bad video quality in fullscreen. i have some videos for offline view (768x576 @ 2600 kbps) but still fullscreen view is messed up, all blocky, not proper video interpolation. in vlc or any other player the flv file looks fine!
the videos also have a 4:3 ratio and show white borders in fullscreen on a 16:9 screen in letterbox, how can make the borders black?
is there any solution?

Hi
as example
Creating a PAL movie in iMovie HD 6 then import this into a NTSC iDVD project
• Works but with a losy quality
I do use JESDeinterlacer3.2.2 and let this do the PAL to NTSC conversion
Now burned as an NTSC iDVD project
• Best result possibly without buying PRO-applications for $$$$$$$
This way should work the other way around too.
Most modern PAL DVD-players can playback NTSC (if TV is old in Bl/W)
Most modern NTSC DVD-players can't playback PAL
If playbacked on a Mac PAL or NTSC is of no interest.

5800 Really Bad build quality

Well I am now on my 3rd 5800 and they all seem to have really bad build quality. As others have mentioned there is a big gap along one side of the phone (top right hand side running down past the volume buttons) and in the dark light leaks out through the gap
Come on - how can anything like this be put out to the general public - this is a serious issue. If you can get one side of the phone to close properly then why didn't you get the other side to do the same?
As a product designer I know that during the design stage there are several prototypes made, parts checked etc - how could this be passed as ok?
I am seriously considering ditching the 5800 all together - for something that Nokia are classing as a premium model they really need to re-consider its quality.

This is really annoying me as well. This phone cost me a lot of money and it's the worst build quality/design I've ever seen.
People talk about dust getting in through the gap but what worries me is that it is much more likely to let in moisture! I've checked with Vodafone and moisture damage is NOT covered by their warranty. So unless Nokia admit that it's a manufacturing fault you'll have to pay for the repair youself.
Of course,
1) If their wasn't a gap down the side of the case water wouldn't get in so it wouldn't need repairing!
2) If the phone gets water damaged it's almost certainly going to be classified as "beyond economical repair"!
Come on Nokia, admit it's a manufacturing fault, recall all the phones and repair them free of charge.

Bad video quality of final product when viewing on computer in full screen

It looks like a picture does when you blow it up and it's a low quality image. Everything I'm reading says the problem would be with the video capture...but I have the same bad quality when I'm viewing the menu! Around all the text on the menu, it's fuzzy and same with my video on the menu. So are my video clips in the movie itself.
I have tried playing it on Windows Media Player, the apple DVD program, and WinDVD and I get the same problem when I view it on full screen.
I assume my family will mostly be playing it on a TV. Do you think it will play properly or worse on a TV? I don't actually have a DVD player myself to test it out. Any suggestions on why this could be happening?
Thanks!

when I started using iDVD, one of the hardest adjustments for me to make was video quality on TV screen vs on computer screen. (I am used to satellite to S-Video TV and HD screens on my computer.)
My camera it a miniDV, and playback via SVideo to an Svideo TV screen is awesome.
I was sorely disappointed when I played the same tape back on the computer. It was grainy/fuzzy, etc. Same with the DVD I made.
But when I played the DVD back on the TV, the image quality was the same as when I connected the camera to the TV - crisp, sharp, video and text.
I've since burned numerous DVDs, and the result is always the same - blah on the computer, sharp on the TV.
As someone else in this thread stated, the average TV is low-res compared to the computer screen.
If I recall the spec correctly, standard NTSC is 240 line, SVideo is up to 500 line. HD is 720 line and higher...ergo an NTSC source is roughly 1/2 the resolution of the typical CPU screen, or 1/3 the resolution of low end HD screens. So yes, NTSC output on your computer screen will always be fuzzy compared to your TV screen.
I think you will likely be very pleased with the DVD when you playback on your TV.

Bad video quality with AMS and Citrix

Some clients connects to our network with vpn Citrix and get the screen presentet from Citrix.
The video quality is bad, choppy and sound out of sync.
Is it possible to set a specific quality for clients connecting with Citrix in AMS?
Do you have a best practice when using Citrix.

Hi Drago
It is very bad situation. Toshiba with every notebook must offer functioning product and because of that offer tested drivers. Those drivers are adapted for each notebook model and also have protecting function. That means the graphic card will not be forced to run on the highest level.
As you can see with original driver you have problems playing some games. For me it is nothing unusual for mobile computers. Problem is that every modified driver is not supported and tested by notebook manufacturer. I recommend you to use tested Toshiba driver. At the end maybe you must make compromise between gaming and watching movies.
By the way: are original DVD movies also so bad while you use preinstalled WinDVD?

Bad video quality on Atom over Internet, but not o...

I have an Asus netbook with a 1.66GHz Atom, 1GB DDR3, and XP. The video quality when in a call over the Internet is almost always bad, and Skype complains the computer is "slow". There is no virus scanner or any other garbage running that sucks up resources. I keep it lean.
So I tried using a different computer to make the call; an 8 year old Sempron laptop, also with XP and 2.2GHz or close to that. Video quality is great. So it's obviously a computer performance issue, right?
It gets stranger. I set up a video call between these two computers over my LAN (i.e. within the same house). Video quality is great on both.
The results have been similar over a span of a year or more, calling people in different parts of the country, and even dropping Wifi and using a cable.
So what causes Skype to think the computer is slow when video calling over the Internet, but not when calling another computer on the same LAN? I have a theory, but I'll hold that thought for right now.

I have been using iChat exclusively over WiFi (Airport Extreme) from my iMac, and via Ethernet and WiFi from my Powerbook. I have not had any quality issues when connecting in this manner. Connections within my local network from WiFi to WiFi, as well as to outside connections over Broadband have all been of very good quality. Now if I can just get it all working again following the upgrade to Leopard 10.5.1.
FYI: I have even used iChat AV on Tiger using DUN on my Treo650 (Sprint), which worked fine as well.

Bad video quality over WiFi?

iChat seems to be trying to out-think me by lowering iChat video quality when it's on WiFi, but using great video when I'm on ethernet. This seems silly, since I have great WiFi connectivity, but I can't seem to disable the behavior. Does anyone know how to disable iChat's WiFi preferences?
More details:
I'm on an 802.11g WiFi network through an AEBS with "full bars" and the quality looks terrible over Bonjour to someone else on the LAN (wired or wireless). As soon as I disable AirPort and plug in to wired Ethernet, making no other changes other than restarting iChat, the quality looks fantastic.
My WiFi speed is always in the tens of megabits per second, with ping latencies below 1ms to the other clients, so it should be plenty fast.
Ideas?

Bad Video Quality - Help This Rookie

Hi - Thanks in advance for your help. I have some good MPEG4 video quality and when I watch it directly (through Quicktime) it looks great. My problem is that when I import it in to iMovie, it takes a serious video quality hit and looks terrible. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better way to import it so that I dont lose the video quality?

Howie,
I've been importing video into iMovie from old VHS tapes and DV. Sometimes it seems as though iMovie's quality is lower than what's on tape. Its possible that the preview/edit is lower quality for performance reasons?
Try rendering a 5 minute clip to your final output and check the resulting quality.

Really bad image quality when burning

Hi, i am very new at this discussion thing and am a french speaker so hope i do this ansking question ok.
I'm having problems with image quality of my 1h46 min movie imported from imovie (initially from quicktime made from final cut pro). I am having pixelly images when camera is moving... Although have read some things about this on the forum none of the answers seem to resolve my problem.
I have selected best quality in my prefs but with no success. I figure it's a compression / codec problem but i do not have a clue about all this technical stuff. I don't know what next move i should make.
Thanks for any help...

I'm using iMac G5 divided my 250 GB in 2 disks wich has 31 Go of free space on my HD at the moment. Using iDVD and i Movie 6.0.2

Hi ! Thanx for responding...
In FCP i did choose export DV/NTSC and imported from camera with apple firewire NTSC (720x480). Should i have imported material in (640x480/30fps/interlaced...) ?
I have had this problem with smaller projects of 20 min of video also so i don't think it has to do with size... At the moment i am making a disc image of my dvd on my desktop hoping to burn through Toast. Otherwise i am also thinking about exporting movie from FCP to tape then importing back to iMov through camera...
I'm kind of desperate and don't really know what to do... I'm also gonna start reading compressor 2 and maybe forget about iDVD an d just burn it through toast. Wich is kind of dissapointing cause without interface, menu and all...

Bad video quality

Hello,
All my podcasts have very bad quality video in iTunes. However, I use good MP4 files. Why ? Does iTunes re-encode the files ?
Thanks

Premiere Pro CS3: bad video quality when exporting for YouTube

Hi!
I'm a newbie to this forum and yes, I've looked for an answer before posting. I'm also pretty new to Premiere Pro and I hope that the problem I'm having is more my fault than Premiere's (it most likely is.)
I have project, a little YouTube-Video. But whenever I export it, the quality is really poor. I've also tried rendering it with Windows Movie maker and, strangely enough, the quality is much better and closer to the original file. My big question is: what am I doing wrong?
Here are some additional info:
Adobe Premiere Pro CS3
Windows 7 Professional, 32 Bit (PC)
The movie file was shot with a Sony DSC-W170 and is an .mpg file
Video:
640x480
10418kBit/s (total: 10483 kBit/s)
30fps
Audio:
64kBit/s
Mono
32kHZ
Project settings: DV-Pal
Standard-PAL-Video (4:3 Interlaced).
48 kHz (16 Bit) Audio
I used the Adobe Media Encoder for the export, H.264/YouTube. I've also tried several other settings, but I never get as good a result as with the Windows Movie maker. Can anyone please tell me how I can fix this? (Maybe the quality of the video already suffers when I import the files into Premiere Pro? The video in the source and the cutting window is very blurry.)
Here you can see for yourself what it looks like:
File rendered with Adobe Premiere CS3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTAyx6O27Dg
File rendered with Windows Movie Maker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVeoUOfM_uo&feature=youtu.be
I hope somebody can help me. If you need additional info which I haven't provided, ask away. Thank you so much in advance for your replies!

YT is set to privet.
Keep project settings and export settings same as camera.
Try H.264 (mp4) for export instead.

Really bad text quality,photoshop, is it pixel aspect ratio?

when doing dvd's i often use psd files for menus or title boards, quite often at 16x9, now the problem lies with the quality of the text in photoshop and when transferred to dvdsp. In photoshop with a 1024 x 576 sq pixel canvas the text looks crisp and sharp, however when transferred to dvdsp the text feels like it has gone through a verticle interlace, each letter is chopped up and shifted stretched and compressed. Going back to photoshop and making a 720x 576 comp with a widescreen pixel aspect ratio seems to do the same thing but this time in photoshop aswell. The text quality problem is not the usual dvd compression issue that is frequently discussed on these boards where text looks fuzzy, this looks much worse than fuzzy or jpeggy
Is there a standard, a combination of aspect ratio and canvas size in both photoshop and dvdsp? It is really frustrating.
Thanks in advance
Henry

My issue is particular to the crossover between photoshop and dvdsp, it may also be particular to pal dvd's and relating to the pixel aspect ratio, if you try and create a 720 x 576 document in photoshop with widescreen aspect ratio turned on and try adding text you will notice the issue. This also crosses over into dvdsp no matter what i do unless the image uses square pixels in p/shop the text is awful. I was really wondering if anyone else had found a combination of setups that avoid this wierd occurance in both programs.
The issue is not the standard 'my font looks bad on an apple display' issue which is often discussed on this forum, i understand that apple display resolutions are so far superior to standard def tv's that it is impossible to compare. The typesize on these projects are 24pt bold sans serif so well above the 18pt generally accepted standard and the canvas size is pixel perfect for pal resolution no images have been reduced or enlarged. The font looks almost illegible rather than just fuzzy.

Bad video quality via Quick Player and Apple TV

I have been watching videos via Quick Player from my MacBookPro and Apple TV for some time in excellent quality. Suddenly now the picture quality has dropped significantly
Quality is still good if I watch via I tunes, but Itunes does not import .avi videos
How can I fix it?

there are many third party apps that will do it.
also, if you are able to get the video into itunes as it currently is, then you can right click on it and choose "create appletv version".

Bad video quality from iPhone videos on PC?

Hello all,
I have been experiencing a fairly annoying problem. I have a small library of videos taken on my iPhone 4S (iOS 5) which have been transferred to my PC (Windows 7). I realize that these are .MOV files and Windows Media Player will not play them, but even the most up-to-date version of quicktime plays these videos very choppy. What gives? Is there another media player I can use to view these, or do I have to convert all of them?

After some googling Ive read that this is an issue others are having since they upgraded to IOS6, apparently videos played fine in 5.
Is there a way to undo the IOS6 update and restore the phone back to IOS5?

Really bad image quality on iPhone 6

I took a photo using my iPhone 6 of some kit that I needed to be able to identify later on. I was looking at the photo today and the fine detail is unreadable, it looks like some kind of pixelating filter has been applied to the image. Does the attached seem right? I'm viewing in Photoshop at 100%
