Video quality poor after placing into timeline, don't know why?

I've done some screen capture with Camtasia on a Windows machine. When I import it into FCP X the quality is fine when viewing prior to placing into the timeline. After I put it in the timeline I find that while editing that the video playback is now blurry, as is the exported media. I'm not sure what's causing this, can someone help?
Thanks in advance.

I set the Playback to High Quality and that didn't help. Thanks for the tip! I'll continue to dig into this problem. What's odd is that my first few projects with learning how to use FCP I used GoPro output and I never saw this issue, but that is HD output.
Thanks,
B

  • No network after first pacman -Syu, don't know why

    Hi All,
    I've been lurking on the boards since I installed Arch on a old Pentium II machine last summer.  I was pretty impressed how well it ran on crappy old hardware, so I am trying to put it on a much nicer Athlon 1200 box I recently aquired.  But I am having problems with the internet connection after the install.
    The new system doesn't have a ethernet card, so I am using a Linksys usb-to-ethernet adapter.  According to this website:
    http://www.linuxcompatible.org/cdetail10700.html
    this adapter should work with Linux and uses a module called CDCEther.
    After installing off the base CD I burned back in about June and fiddling with rc.conf to get it set up for dhcp, I was able to get on the internet.  So I proceeded to do a pacman -Syu and rebooted once it was finished.  After that boot I can no longer get to the internet at all.  I can't even ping my linksys router which is the gateway.  If I do ifconfig eth0 it says device not found, and if I do netstat -r it returns nothing at all.
    I didn't add kernel26 to my IgnorePkg line in pacman.conf.  Is it possible that the kernel got upgraded and now it can't load the module for my adapter?  When I do a uname -a it says the kernel rev is 2.6.10, while before the pacman -Syu I think it was 2.6.3.  I notice if I do modprobe CDCEther it says there is no such thing.  I didn't try that before it broke though, I didn't have any reason to check it out since everything was working.  But I assume it would have found the module then since I could get on the network just fine. . .
    What is my best option here?  Does anybody know how I can fix this situation, or should I just reinstall?  And if I do reinstall should I use the ftp install instead of going off the CD like I did this time?
    Thanks,
    Ralph

    I have nailed down the problem more and found a workaround for now.  I'll add the info here in case somebody else finds this post when working on a similar problem.
    I tried changing CDCEther to usbnet in both modprobe.conf and rc.conf as that link I posted above suggested.  That didn't help.  After rebooting I still had no network connection even though lsmod showed the usbnet module was running.
    So I left those files with usbnet in them and downgraded the kernel to the 2.6.3 version on my base install CD from last summer.  After doing that and booting the USB to ethernet adapter is fine and I can get to the internet.  So clearly it was the pacman -Syu upgrading the kernel that broke it, I just don't know why.
    For now I have put kernel26 in my IgnorePkg line of pacman.conf so this won't happen again.  I would guess if I figure out why it broke I could upgrade the kernel by recompiling or using ABS as people suggested above.  But I'll wait till I have a little more experience and know more about why the newer kernel didn't work before I try that.
    Thanks again to iBertus and sarah31 for the help.

  • Video shaky ONLY after inserted into timeline

    Hey guys, I shot some stuff on green screen, and most of the footage is great (shot in my school studio) except for two segments. The actual capture footage for these is flawless with no problems whatsoever. In the edit window they are fine, but when I mark in/out and drag the clip into the timeline, the video is shaky and almost kind of vibrating when i playback in the preview window. What gives? I've asked a lot of people and they have no idea what the issue is.
    The clips, like I said before, are fine, but when I put them into the timeline, then they get all fudgy. I tried SmoothCam and the Stabilizer in Motion, and neither made any improvement (smoothcam might have made it worse, actually...which is odd).
    Can anyone shed some light on this? It's much appreciated, thanks.
    -Z

    Which version of FCP are you using? If you are using 6 or higher, create a new sequence, drop a clip in there and click 'yes.' This will create a sequence that matches your clip exactly. What's going on is that you are cutting standard def footage in an HD sequence. If you don't want to recut, then change your sequence settings to match your clips exactly; you also will want to change your compressor to DVCPro50 or some other DV compression.

  • Video quality poor after saving

    I'm using Soundbooth CS4 on a Mac and when saving a video/audio file the video is really poor quality, blurry etc. I'm exporting using the compression guidelines for vimeo (http://vimeo.com/help/compression), as that is where I'm planning on uploading to. I've tried saving as an .mp4 and .mov and had the same problem with both. Has anyone had the same problems?

    AT&T delivers U-verse service over a fiber-to-the-node
    It is important to note this is not a cable modem as you stated. Cable modems work of Docsis technology. You have Fiber which I would take over Docsis any day. You should have very good internet. Yes 6MB Down is just fine for streaming Netflix. You can stream good quality at less if it was the case.
    The problem could be local. You mentioned the laptop is fine but the apple tv gets worse. Are both on WiFi? If yes then check the signal strength of the Apple TV vs. the PC when you see this happening. It could be possible but not likely that you are getting wifi interference. Possibly from a phone or house hold appliance. This also could depend on your country and the default channels. Try connecting the Apple TV via ethernet if you can and see then if the same thing happens.
    Good Luck

  • Music Videos automatically syncing to iPhone (although I don't know why)

    Hi.
    I have iTunes 10 and and iPhone 3GS on IOS 5.0.1.
    I have purchased a number of music videos from the iTunes store for playing on my Apple TV.  But...  they are automatically syncing to my iPhone, and taking up space on there, which is annoying.  Even when I uncheck the master 'Sync Music' tab on the iPhone's device menu, and uncheck the 'sync music videos' option, they still get onto my iPhone.
    I have also purchased films and TV programmes from iTunes, but they aren't causing an issue.
    Any ideas?  It's really annoying.

    Yes.  This is what you friend would need to do.  He (she) would need to start by saving any photo stream photos on his phone to his camera roll unless they are already there.  To do this, he should go to his my photo stream album, tap Select (Edit in iOS 6), tap the photos, tap the share icon--box with upward pointing arrow (Share in iOS 6), then tap Save to Camera Roll.  Then he should go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  (If he is running iOS 7 he will be prompted to also enter his iCloud password to turn off Find My iPhone.)  This will only delete his iCloud data from his phone, not from his iCloud account.  His data will sync back to his phone when he signs back in.
    Then you can go to Settings>iCloud on his phone and sign in with your Apple ID to create your new account.  Leave all other settings off and do not choose Merge with iCloud if you are prompted (since you do not want his data in your new account).  Then tap Delete Account to delete your new account from his phone (and provide your password if prompted to turn off Find My iPhone).
    Then your friend can go to Settings>iCloud on his phone, sign back in with his iCloud ID and his data will sync back to his phone as it was before.
    Then you can go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and sign in with your Apple ID.  Since you are signing into an existing iCloud account this time you will not receive the prompt that your phone is not allowed to create.  Then you shoudl be good to go.

    Day after yesterday night, my iphone 4s full off, I don't know why? but not oppen and not charging. What do I do?

    Plug it in to power for at least 15 minutes.  If it doesn't automatically come on, try a Reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • TS3992 My iPad hasn't backed up to iCloud for 2 weeks so I've connected it to my laptop and it still won't backup and this is AFTER I paid for extra iCloud storage. I'm so frustrated because it keeps saying back-up failed but I don't know why.

    My iPad hasn't backed up to iCloud for 2 weeks after repeated attempts even AFTER I paid extra for more iCloud storage. I've connected it to my laptop and it still won't backup. I'm so frustrated because it keeps saying back-up failed but I don't know why. Please help, thanks!

    To back up to your computer, right-click on the name of your iPad on the left side of iTunes and click Back Up.  (If running iTunes 11, first go to View>Show Sidebar.)
    To get your iPad to back up to iCloud again, try deleting your last backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again.  If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.
    If it still won't back up you may have network issues connecting to the iCloud server.  Solutions to that include power-cycling your wireless router (unplugging it for 15 seconds, then plugging it back in), resetting network settings on your phone (in Settings>General>Reset), updating the firmware on your router, and changing the router's DNS settings to use Google's public DNS (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using).

  • After shutting down my iMac last night, Firefox will not open this morning and I don't know why?

    My iMac is set to open to my home page My Yahoo with Firefox browser. This morning my Firefox browser is not opening and I don't know why? It does open on my new MacBook Air as per usual. I click on the icon but it does not respond even though I have opened it. this has never happened to me before and I don't know why it's happening now. I did a clean reinstall but that didn't work. Now what?????? With the add-on Troubleshooter should I have asked this question on my iMac using Safari? I am on my MacBook Air asking it.

    Actually it does open but nothing shows up. I can't use my iMac unless I use the Safari browser and I want to use Firefox! I'm at my wits end as to how to fix this. I have tried everything that troubleshooting has suggested on Mozilla support. Help!!!!!!!!

  • Whenever I try to log into my itunes it says I have a -50 error, but I'm not downloading anything. I don't know why it won't let me log in.

    I don't know why my itunes won't let me log in. All the Apple website tells me is that it's an error when I'm downloading something, but I'm not downloading anything.

    Hey shelbylynn18,
    Thanks for the question. (-50) is a timeout error that can occur when downloading content or when simply trying to access the iTunes Store. If you have automatic downloads enabled, you may be experiencing this error when iTunes is attempting to automatically download available content.
    iTunes Store: "Error (-50)" when downloading purchased content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1583
    This can happen when the connection timeout occurs while downloading purchased content from the iTunes Store. Certain types of software may also affect the way a computer sends and receives information from the internet. Here are a few examples of these types of software:
    - Firewalls
    - Web Accelerators
    - Ad Filters
    - Virus Protection Software
    Resolution
    If you have any of the software listed above, and you cannot access the iTunes Store or complete your download, you will need to configure these applications to allow iTunes to connect to the Internet.
    Refer to the documentation that came with that software, and if necessary contact the software's manufacturer. You will need to configure the software to allow the following domains to send and receive data from the Internet.
    - itunes.apple.com
    - ax.itunes.apple.com
    - albert.apple.com
    - gs.apple.com
    - deimos3.apple.com
    - phobos.apple.com
    If a web accelerator appears to be causing the issue, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or the software manufacturer. If your computer is on a network, you may also want to try using a different computer on the network, or discuss the issue with the network administrator.

  • Broadband usage has doubled and I don't know why

    Hi there
    Just received a warning message that I am about to exceed my 40gb limit.  Normal monthly usage has been 18gb apparently and we don't know why the increase has occurred.  We have no kids at home, we don't stream films or videos or play games, I've downloaded 1 music album this month and we've surfed the net as usual.
    Can this usage be verified?
    Any tips on checking whther someone else is using our broadband....is this possible?
    Any tips on why this might be happening...it's puzzling.
    Is there an indpependent (non BT) way of monitoring and measuring broadband usage?
    Dom

    Hi dr58.
    In my experience the only way to sort this out is to hope that your post draws the attention of a forum moderator. Anyone on the phones will try and convince you that you are indeed downloading 20 albums a day, uploading 3000 pictures a week etc etc and "it all mounts up" and you would be far better on an Unlimited Package.
    I had problems (in fact thinking about it, this time last year) where my usage had crept up and according to BT my son and I were using 90gb a month, despite no streaming, gaming etc. I am on a 40gb package like yourself so was incurring £50 charges each month. In the end it was resolved with BT agreeing it wasn't possible for us to be getting through that amount but as I wasn't using a BT router at the time it was impossible to prove that someone hadn't been piggybacking my wifi. (I'd changed passwords during the high readings to no avail anyway).
    My personal advice would be to keep a daily eye on your broadband monitor, screenshot them if need be, if you have been out during the day or away for any great length of time also note the readings that appear for that day. I also check my BT homehub to make sure only the devices in my house are hooked in just in case.
    As it happens I've also noticed a big jump in my readings this month, I have just a few GB to spare but in my opinion the readings are still high compared to what I was noting at the tail end of last year after I finally had SeanD look into the matter for me.
    I do hope that the meters arent going up the creek yet again because I've sworn that if it should happen again I'm walking to a different company this time around.
    Best of luck and I hope you get the information you need and the situation resolves itself.
