Animated gif, bad quality after exporting.

Hi,
I've done this image:
http://kpopgames.com/images/widgetv2.gif
It's an animated gif, but I noticed that the quality became bad. Especially in the face of the characters there. How can I fix this?
Here are the individual pictures used in this gif:

The third pic looks okay, but the first and second one are really bad..
I've also tried optimizing it and this is the best one I got:

it's better but it's still bad in quality.

It's actually good quality for a GIF animation. You'll get better results by exporting it in SWF format. SWF handles JPEG's better than GIF format, whch is limited to 256 colors. To export in SWF (Flash) format, choose File > Save As. Choose Adobe Flash. Click on the Options button to set the speed.

Bad quality after exporting project (15 min)

How should I export the project to make it look great? I have tried several options, but I can't really export it in a proper way. It might have something to do with the different cliptypes I used..? I can't change that anymore, with a deadline in only a couple of hours. I tried to export it using quicktime, but that made the quality very bad. Now I am trying to export it with the help of this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cje0TM2SW50, but it's taking 20 hours or so to do it that way and i only have a couple.
Tips anyone?

As Studio X said, the best thing you can do is make an interim, full quality master. This doesn't take long because in essence you are copying your media into a single QT file that reflects the Sequence settings. (If you have long sections that are unrendered this will take much longer - I recommend Rendering All in FCP before you make the self-contained, current settings file.)
Next, you close FCP and export THAT movie, and you can use a variety of applications to make your playback movie. Compressor is good; so are Squeeze, Adobe Media Encoder, and iSkySoft. Quicktime 7 also works fine. A tried and true format is an H.264 QT movie - but of course, I don't know what your final playback situation is.
Here are the base settings I usually start with for web delivery. You can test them on a short piece of your master.
Video
Format: H.264
Motion > Frame rate: Current
Data Rate: Automatic
Key Frames: Automatic, Frame Reordering checked
Compressor > Quality: Medium or Medium-High
Single-pass VBR (or "Faster Encoding")
Size: 1280x720
Audio:
Format: AAC
Stereo, 44.1 kHz
Normal Quality
I find these settings usually make a dependably good quality file, minimizing export time. You may also adapt these quality settings to make .mp4 files as well, which are more easily played on PCs as well as Macs.
For that, you choose MPEG-4, choose MP4 in the File Format drop down, H.264 in the Video Format drop down, and pick a data rate around 1000 kbits/sec. Other settings should mirror the above. Good luck!

Animated Graphs looking terrible after exporting

Hello Anyone,
I've created an graph in Numbers and brought it across to Keynote and applied an animation effect. Then I exported as a Quicktime Movie using a few different Codecs. All look fine and crystal clear when played in Quicktime. But when I import it into FCP it appears okay in the viewer but terrible when in the Canvas even after rendering. I've tried exporting in various formats from FCP, but I'm still unable to get a satifactory result without it looking terrible. Surely there is a way?????

OK...now for the second part...are you looking at this, and judging the quality of the image based on what you see in the Canvas? That is one of the worse places to judge the quality of the image.
Shane's Stock Answer #2: Blurry playback
ONLY JUDGE THE QUALITY OF YOUR MATERIAL ON AN EXTERNAL NTSC MONITOR, OR AT LEAST A TV.
The canvas shows you what happens after the codec you are working with has been applied. The viewer shows you the material in its native format.
1. Disable overlays on the canvas
2. Make sure you've rendered everything (no green bars at the top of the timeline

Video playback requires large amounts of data and many computations. In order to maintain frame rate and be viewable at a normal size, only about one-fourth of the DV data is used in displaying the movie to the screen. However, the DV footage is still at full quality, and is best viewed thru a TV or NTSC monitor routed thru your camera or deck.

Poor quality after exporting

Hi,
I'm quite new to Premiere Pro and am having problems with the quality of my movie after exporting it. It looks fine within Premiere Pro but once exported it's very shaky and it comes up with red flashes in random places.
When I export the movie, I go to 'Export to Encore' then 'Burn without menus' and select NSTC high quality.
The only thing I can think of is the original source files I am using. My camera only downloads as MOD files which I then convert to MPEG2 files.
I need to screen the video to around a 100 work colleagues at a function on Saturday so any help or suggestions would be most appreciated!!

> The only thing I can think of is the original source files I am using. My camera only downloads as MOD files which I then convert to MPEG2 files.
Correct. Reshoot with a different camera or use different software, like WMM or PE, or anything that is consumer grade software.

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)

Text poor quality after Export

I'm having some pretty poor quality text rendering after export. The video appears fine otherewise. I am exporting to YouTubeSD not HD, though I wouldn't think that would matter. [?]
I'm pretty new to the complexities of film editing. So, I can't answer much about the video source files other than that they are MP4 converted originally from analog files written to DVD. I wouldn't think that would have anything to do with the titles at all since all text created thru PP Title Editor. [?]
Here's a screenshot of settings. Any ideas?

Sorry- I meant to add this is CS5.5
Jeff- I've been using this same font for other projects without problem. This just started happening on this project. Yes, it is a serif font but no problems before. It's always rendered well [Adobe Arabic].
Message was edited by: zech3 APOLOGIES- when I searched this issue, I didn't see my exact problem and the post below [ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/705407?tstart=0 ] just got resurrected from 2010, it didn't appear in my search... though I'm not sure our issue is identical...
Here's a better screenshoht:
And some screen shots of titles:
BEFORE text rendering problem. From a project last year, this typeface is skinnier but rendered much better!
AFTER text rendering problem started. This is the current typeface that, even though a heavier typeface, renders horribly!!
I should add that the titles seem to flicker a bit when transitions are applied to the start or end of title clip.

Massive Loss Of Quality After Exporting

Hi guys.
Apologies if this has been covered before, but I didn't feel like looking through pages and pages of threads.
I'm shooting on a Sony HDR-FX1E @1080i, and editing in Final Cut Express HD.
I'm capturing using the "Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i50"
I'm in a PAL country, therefore shooting in PAL.
Now, when my image is in the editor. It looks sharp, and the colours are great. However, then I export using these settings: Quicktime Conversion - Then as Quicktime movie, using the H.264 codec, and restricting to 6500kbp/s (the size that the website i'm uploading to reccomends) then at 1920x1080 HD.
Then when I watch the video back, the quality and colours are severely lacking.
Could someone please tell me where I'm going wrong.
(see picture in Link for comparison. Image on right is in the editor, and image on the left is after exporting.)
http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4094/49109848704d83f35e0eb.jpg

Okay, so I've looked through the first 10 pages. I've still got another 1,500 to look through.
It probably would have been just as quick and ten times more helpful to reply with what I have to do, rather than a sarcastic, witty comment.
Could anyone else recommend me a forum or somewhere where I can find the information I need?
Thanks.

Bad quality after converting to PDF and direct emailing of form letters from MS Word

Hello,
when using the the "form letter" option (for creating personalized PDF files from form letters, that are then directly emailed as attachments via outlook) under the "Acrobat" add-in tab in MS Word I keep getting PDF documents with bad quality (e.g. a logo that is inserted in the document becomes very pixelated). When directly converting the same document to a PDF file using the "create PDF" option unter the "Acrobat" add-in tab in MS Word, I get a high quality pdf file with a perfectly smooth logo (very much the same as it looks in the original MS word document).
Does anyone have an idea what causes the discrepancy in quality of the pdf files that are created via the two options "form letter" and "create PDF" in the "Acrobat" add-in for MS Word?
Any help is highly appreciated,
thank you,
Hans

Maybe I have not made myself clear in the first post. What I am trying to say is, that I keep getting bad quality PDFs (e.g. pixelated logos) when using the "form letter" option (blue box in the image above) but not when using the "create PDF" option (red box in the image above) from the Acrobat add-in in MS Word. Changing the settings for pdf conversion (green box in the image above) only affects PDFs created from the "create PDF" but not the "form letter" option.
Does anyone know how to create high quality (e.g. high resolution) PDFs using the "form letter" option (blue box)?
Best regards,
Hans

Bad color after exporting in iMovie 11

I just got a Macbook Air (mid 2012 model) mainly for iMovie and I have to say I'm disappointed with the export quality.
I tried the standard export option and that results in a low bitrate washed out(color) video.
I tried just about every other option in the 'export with quicktime' including increasing the saturation using the filter menu.
But every option results in a video that has really bad color It's messed up and has a 'blackish' look. WHat I mean is that red lips look a little brownish pink, colors and blacks are darkened, they lack the shine the original vid had.
In iMovie, everything looks great. Can somebody please help me out?
The animation codec resulted in a 16gb file for a 3min vid but the colors were normal. But when I played it back in Windows 7, the colors were messsed up again.
Can someone please tell me the settings (when exporting in iMovie) for the best quality when played back on a PC?

Fortunately you didn't do anything wrong. Unfortunately iMovie is not geared towards import and editing of MiniDV video the way it used to be.
DV video shot on a MiniDV camera has lines of video 'interlaced' with one another. So you half the video lines at any one time and your brain combines them up into a smooth looking image. Ever since iMovie '08 came out including later versions ('09,'11), on importing the DV/MiniDV format or any video with interlaced lines of video iMovie drops, or deletes 1 whole set of scanlines. That means 1/2 of the video signal is discarded on importing it into iMovie.Then it attempts to 'regenerate' the missing video by 'doubling up' the video lines that still exist. Unfortunately the side effect of this process is quality visually is degraded, suffers and people are unhappy. The benefit to iMovie, the Macintosh and Apple is it's easier to 'playback' and preview the video as you skim it on the timeline. And it works on even the less expensive, less powerful macintoshes available on the market. You don't need the most expensive powerful Mac Pro to get good performance out of iMovie now. So that's the compromise and trade-off working with interlaced video on any version of iMovie made since roughly 2007. Prior versions of iMovie like iMovie HD 6 were very tailored to MiniDV camera video and were able to maintain the interlaced video data by design.

Decreasing Quality after Export to Encore

Hello friends> Before I pose my question, I want to thank you all. The last 75 days have been an intense period of growth for me, going from ZERO filming and Adobe Premeire / Encore (CS5.5) experience, to where I am now. I'm probably still a beginner, but I've filmed a great instrutional DVD with a solid menu and chapters, and edited it very well. I'm very pleased with the product I have now.
Anyway, I have YOU all to thank. Guys like Harm Millaard and Bill Hunt- I've read so many of your posts as I learned how to use this amazing software.
Until now, I've managed to figure out everything on my own... but now, I come to you with a desparate problem that I cannot solve on my own.
Essentially, the problem is this: The quality of the video on the DVD is much poorer than the quality of the video in Adobe Premeire.
There's an obvious reason for this: I filmed in 1440x1080, and the NTSC format in Encore is of course 720x480. That much makes sense.
So the REAL problem I have is this:
I know my project is NOT HiDef. I don't expect that. But, the quality is lower than it should be. My eyes, for example, are pixelated and have no "sparkle", even when the DVD player window is at the 720x480 size.
I compare this to any given production DVD (non HiDef), like Lord of the Rings. I can maximize the window on a 1080p monitor, and even though it too is 720x480, it STILL looks good. It's not pixelated. When I expand mine to 1080p, it's very pixelated.
This is what I need help with...
I can give you the specifics of the production method and provide screenshots if it would help, but as you know, the dynamic linkfrom Premeire to Encore is pretty simple and doesn't give you a lot of room for error- it's pretty tight. In short, here are some of the things I've tried:
> I've tried rendering the production into a 720x480 sequence instead of a 1080p sequence. The final product from Encore is the same quality.
> I bought and used a pretty darn good camera.
> I bought some really nice lights to use, and really studied 3 point lighting, so I don't think the lighting is the problem. When I look a the raw 1080p files on my computer, they are breathtakingly clear.
Okay friends.... I hope you can help me!

Hello guys!
Thank you all so much. The video that showed how to export the footage with the proper setting was very educational.
The problem is, I'm still at square one. I've tried two things, with no increase in quality.
Here are the details: My originals were shot at 1440x1080, at a framerate of 60i.
I didn't realize 60i was only for high motion, otherwise I would have at least done 60p....
Anyway, I followed the man's instructions for exporting 1080 60i footage, and did the following:
MPEG2-DVD
Preset: NTSC Widescreen High Quality
Field Order = Upper
VBR - 2 Pass
Use Maximum Render Quality
Bitrate: Min-2.8mbs, target-7mbs, max-8mbs
GOP Settings: M frames=3, N frames=15
On an old TV, the DVD doesn't look terrible. And when the window on my computer is at 720x480, it looks "okay". But when I "maximize" the window, it looks very bad. The eyes and face are completely pixelated. I understand I'm more than doubling the size of the video when I maximize on a 1080p monitor, but EVERY other DVD I have ever boght- even janky, no-name 4x4 DVDs filmed with huge shoulder cameras from the 90s, look pretty darn good when "maximized".
Perhaps I'm expecting too much, but I filmed with very high quality, I have a very nice computer, and Adobe has given me the best software. I believe I'm truly in a position to deliver a "market ready" product.
The DVD is only 30 minutes long, so "room" is not a problem. I'm already selling about $400 worth of these DVDs per day, and am about to place a big order with a fulfillment center for $12,000 worth.
Before I do that, I MUST improve the quality... I know a lot of my customers are watching this on their computers, and not on their DVD players with standard def TVs.
Here's a screen shot of the DVD at 720x480 size: http://screencast.com/t/7a91ujCLHkT
Here's the garbage I'm getting when maximized: http://screencast.com/t/XjqyD3cf04UV
I really hope one of you gurus can help me.
Thank you SO MUCH.
V.R.

Bad quality after sharing video

The quality of my video is very bad after sharing it (I have saved the project as MPEG2 file)
Especially the darker parts of the video are bad, in the preview screen in adobe premiere elements 7 I can see the faces of all people in these parts, while I can only see very dark faces after sharing. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
Jorien

I have a DV camcorder and I used a firewire cable to get it into my computer. In the assets I read DV PAL 25.00 frames/sec , don't know what information I need to give you?
I tried to share it as MPEG2-NTSC standard, and MPEG2-PAL standard.
(I view the shared video on the same computer)
Hope you can help me (sorry, am not really into video editing yet so I don't know so much about it).
Grtz, Jorien

Color quality after exporting video

I am trying to make a video with all of my photos, and after I export the video, the quality of the images totally gets ruined. The color is not as vibrant and the images are not as clear, I am using the highest mode to export, so I was wondering if there is anything that I can do to improve the quality!

I figured it out. I had to reduce the size of the exported file. It looks a lot better now.

Shaky video, less quality after exporting

Hello everyone!
Today i tried recording a Euro truck simulator 2 video, and after that a Sniper Elite V2 video with Fraps. The output files become .AVI files.
It looked perfect when i was looking at the raw footage, aswell as when i edited it and saw it in the preview window of Premiere Pro CS5. Im running it clean, so i've added nothing to it.
Im running on Windows 8.
Though, when i exported it, it started getting a little shaky getting a rather big quality loss aswell as black borders appearing in the video that i fixed in the preview/editing.
If anyone can help me out, i'd appreciate it. i have googled and looked at all the results that i've found and nothing have helped. I think its my third or fourth attempt on exporting and still failing at this time, and its the first video EVER to do this, which is abit weird.
My Export Settings :
Video Settings:
NTSC
1920x1080 (If it matters, when i recorded it i recorded it on my 1440x900 monitor)

FCE + 5D Mark 2 = Poor quality after export

Hi,
I've been attempting to edit some footage shot on the 5D Mk2. Playing back the footage works fine once it has been rendered, but when I export it as a quicktime file and burn through either iDVD or Toast, the final results are very poor. It looks terrible! I understand its not possible to burn HD quality (unless you have a HD/BLU RAY BURNER) and perhaps I'm not exporting it correctly....
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks

a videoDVD has a fraction of res of your device/FCE sequence...
watching a videoDVD on a 'HiRes' computer screen full-screen, blows up the 720x480 res by factor 4-6x..
