Adding pictures/graphics w TEXT to DV movies

In the past - I was told if I wanted to add a picture ( with text titling mixed in) to a DV quality movie in final cut pro - that I should use: 720x480 300 dpi Tiff file - however looks badly smudgy/ pixilated post importing.
Q: Why does this look so bad? Should I be using a different size/format?

Thanks james -
BTW: The Text is Built IN the tiff picture
Now, the question is... are you applying any motion
(scaling, moving, cropping etc) to your TIFF image in
FCP? Or, is the image just being used as a static
background with text on top?
I'm applying no Motion effects of any kind. I simply drag a clean tiff from the FCP browser to the timeline.
You might find that if you double-click on your TIFF
clip on the timeline, it opens up into the VIEWER
window as a perfect image... whereas, in the canvas
it looks fuzzy... this is basically a render
issue...
- when I double click - it seems as though the image looks equally fuzzy/smudgy in the canvas as well as the viewer
BTW: - I have the playback video quality set to HIGH and record to tape set to FULL quality.
Just to add... do you see the green preview render
line at the top of the timeline?
let me know how it looks if you double-click on it
and bring it to the viewer...

  • Adding a graphic into text box (runtime without drawing sprite)

    I have the game instructions in a scrolling box but would
    like to add graphic of the arrow keys
    into the text field .
    this is probably simple .. tried adding with "+" .. but
    wasn't that simple...
    thanks for considering

    it can be either ... I tried with a library graphic ... and
    then as a mc .. but figured a image in the library would be the
    easiest ....
    was hoping I could just add it in the AS3 text script.. but
    did not work for me
    thank you for asking

  • Move graphics with text--but not inline--in PM...??

    Hello, is there a way in PageMaker to move graphics with text but not inline? I ask because right now I see two options for graphics:
    --inline, so you cannot place the graphic exactly where you want AND the text only flows way above or below--but not next to--the graphic
    or
    --independent so you can place the graphic exactly where you want and the text DOES flow right next to the graphic, but then the graphic doesn't move with the text
    I'd like to be able to place graphics exactly where I want AND have them move with the text, like the "Move object with text" option in Word.
    thank you!
    L

    well it has been a while since i used PageMaker so i didn't realize it was "dead."
    though i'm not surprised and am kind of glad. i was hired into a new job recently
    to work on a department newsletter, and i'm trying to find a good authoring program
    within our budget. right now the newsletter is in Word but we've had a lot of problems
    with Word so i'm seeking an alternate solution. i'd like Frame but again there isn't
    enough money in the budget. i need a good option that is $500 or less...i'm trying Publisher
    now too but not enough functionality...

  • Ghost scale factor appied to graphics and text

    I am working on menu generation that uses a container and adds child graphics with text labels
    The container has event listener applied to respond to MOUSE_OUT. This is so the entire menu
    will dissappear on rollout. The problem is that the child MovieClips and applied textFields are
    effected by some kind of scaling factor that I can't find in my code.
    I have attached the file with the code. It is formatted for Unix (line feed line endings)
    Suspect code is line 102 to 139 (knobOverMenu.makeMenu()). Lines 56 to 59 is the formating
    object.
    You will notice the font size is set to 2. I had to do this because using size 10 results in greatly
    scaled text.
    Why would this scaling factor be applied here? I can't find any indication in my code.
    Thank you for time and attention

    That is a simple rectangle that serves as the background for each menu
    item.
    It was created in Flash and exported to actionscript. So the code is
    what Flash
    created.
    The problem showed up when I started adding menuFieldmc with text label
    to menuPanel. That is another graphic like mainFieldmc but with enough
    height to include all the menu items. I suspect that is the problem. I
    also
    created that in Flash and exported for ActionScript. Inside menuPanel
    the mainFieldmc instances and text labels are scaled about 5 times.
    I am also curious about Sprite. When I convert a graphic element to a
    symbol,
    the dialog does not offer the option of assigning Sprite to the symbol,
    just Simple
    Button, Movie Clip, or Graphic. If I choose graphic it does not create
    an object
    definition.
    Thank you for time and attention

  • How do I delete text from a movie I did in final cut

    hey guys i made a movie in final cut a while back and I want to delete some text I added to a clip but I can't seam to figuer out how to do it anyone have any ideas?
    Message was edited by: the mac guy

    As Jim is pointing out, the best way to deal with editing the text out of an existing movie is to go back to the project and deal with the clips BEFORE the text was added.
    Either that or bring the movie into AfterEffects or Shake and paint out the text on a frame by frame basis. (LOADS of fun!)

  • I need to 'enable download pictures/graphics' in my Comcast email.

    I get no images or graphics in my Comcast email. I need to 'enable download pictures/graphics' I believe to fix this. Text within a blank graphics box stated this. I'm using Firefox version 27. Windows XP. Comcast email server. Graphics quite showing in my email several months back all of a sudden. I've cleared the cache and cookies. I believe I tried resetting Firefox to default settings. I could try this again. Don't remember if I did this before or after email graphic problems. Comcast tech support could not help me. Thank you.

    Cor-el, there are no links to the email images in Tools>Page Info>Media that I can see. When I right click the image placeholder and click Inspect Element, It shows line after line of what looks like code. No images loading are only a problem in my Comcast email. I've had three tech reps at Comcast try to solve it. None could. Websites load fine. Could the problem have something to do with my graphics card and driver? Thanks.

  • Adding picture to mp3 files in iTunes Bugs found!

    There is a bug when you adding picture to lots of music in an album. Which you when you finish adding the picture, some of them changed the picture...but there are some not changed. Those not changed picture mp3 files are all bugged, the bug is which your music will be repeating at the first few sec. Its kinda annoying! Need to delete the whole mp3 file away...
    Please help to contact Apple about this bugs and fix it quickly! Thank you.

    I was having the same issue with a few (not all) .m4k files on a NAS -- in my case the problem was something with file attributes/permissions (I'm using Windows 7).
    ITunes could not change the actual file (rename/move to keep organized, add artwork, etc), though Windows would update the file date when I did attempt these things. Permissions seemed fine for the files, but the fix was to simply change an attribute and hit 'Apply' from the file properties window (right click file in File Explorer...Properties).
    Specifically, most of my files had the Archive attribute checked, which I just unchecked and hit Apply. The issue wasn't the setting since all of my files have this attribute set and most can be edited by Itunes, but by changing the attribute, it fixed whatever weird issue there was with iTunes altering the file.

    You can also try out few things >
    1) check if the ipod constantly appears in mycomputer section .
    - if it does try changing the drive letter of the ipod and try to format the ipod drive(Right click format)
    2) if its not comin up in mycomputer then.. there has to be problem with the USB drivers in your computer
    you can try
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304508
    The best way to check whether the ipod is faulty or the computer is creating the problem is,
    connect the ipod to a different computer which has itunes on it(If possible)

  • Is there a way for a form user to load graphics and text in same field?

    I am aware that you can load text into a text field and graphics into an image field.  However, I would like to load a document containing text and graphics (e.g., MS Word or RTF) into a single field on a PDF form.  Is there any way to do this?

    Paul,
    I believe that the example of attaching a file that you have provided will solve the problem.  I am using LiveCycle Designer, so using the code that is in your example should be no problem.  The end-user will use Adobe Reader, so as you mentioned, I will use Acrobat to extend the features so that the form can be used by Reader.
    Thanks so much for your help,
    Daniel

    It is part of the PDF AcroForm side of things .....Are you using Reader or Acrobat to fill the form. If Reader then you will have to Reader Extend to make this work ....if Acrobat then you simply need to add some code. I have attached a sample that shows you how to do it if you want it.
