Autoplay movie has ragged edges and pixelated

Why I added an autoplay movie when everything was working I don't know. Everything was fine.
Before adding conent to the autoplay section the menu, scenes, everything burned nicely on pro setting, 110 minutes per disk nice quality. I wanted to add a short 10 sec movie to auto play when the dvd was inserted, I'll call this movie the tag.
I made up the tag animation in Flash at 30 fps, sized to 768 x 576 pixels, then saved it as a quicktime movie. I opened the .mov file into iMovieHD and saved it as a iMovie file. Went into iDVD added the iMovie tag to the autoplay section in the map view. Ripped, burned ok.
When I tested the DVD in my older Pioneer (DV-333) dvd player I get a large boxes, stalling ragged edge picture in the autoplay portion only. The rest of the dvd plays great. Tried my neighbours newer pioneer dvd player and the DVD wouldn't play at all. The DVD plays normally in my G4 and G3 - pismo using apple DVD player.
So close to finished and yet so far.

The autoplay is ok at a lower frame rate (12fps) in Flash. I may later redo the Flash movie with full wide screen instead of the 768x576 resolution.
so I the made up the animation in Flash exported to qt.mov
iMovie to iDVD. Looks good.

  • Compressing "masked' quicktime movie-mask has ragged edges and white areas

    I have been masking quicktime movies with quicktime pro. I get a good-looking masked quicktime movie. But when I try to export to mp4 or other file types, the mask looks terrbile, the edges are ragged and some previously masked areas are now white. HELP!

    i tried apple 1, 2, and 3 for actual, double, and full size, always a white border in full screen. at actual size the side borders are bigger than the top and bottom, double and full it's a crisp 1 pixel grey line all the way around. i made the mask file 481x641 and 482x642 with no changes at all, all of them cut way inside the edges of the picture to avoid that border.
    strange part is at full size (more than double size for sure with these files) the border is exactly 1 pixel, not scaled up to 2.x pixels like you would expect if it was in the movie, not just the player sucking with masks. guess i'll hope someone notices and fixes in a future release. just like with the h.264 encoding border with masks. i guess the white border all the way around is better than a neon green one on the right side which i get with h.264
    /someone not testing QT with simple rectangular masks it seems
    here's a screenshot of my movie in fullscreen at double size so you can see the whole border:

  • Text has ragged edges

    I'm new to Illustrator and just learning.
    I 've always heard that if you create a logo in Ai you will see nice clean lines, no jagged or blurry edges.
    I've just created a plain text logo, with a line drawing for the web.
    I saved it to web and devices as a png.
    How come when I zoom in on the logo, or if I enlarge it, the text gets all jagged?
    The drawn line is nice and clean, but the text is not.
    Why is this?
    thank you!!!!

    tere,
    In order to get the nicest look, you should tick Anti-Alias when you save as PNG (in the Save for Web & Devices, I believe it is still hidden away in the Image Size Window; for non rectangular images, you should also use tick Transparency).
    This will create colour transition pixels which will blend in and soften especially what would otherwise be stepwise slanting transitions.
    PNG is superior to GIF in this respect; there is an issue with IE (Internet Explorer) older than 7.
    There is a javascript fix for IE 6 and 5.5 called pngfix.js, which  you may use as follows (to reach users with even older IE versions, GIF  is the only option):
    In the Head section, you may include this:
    <!--[if lt IE 7.]>
    <script defer type="text/javascript" src="pngfix.js"></script>
    <![endif]-->
    And then in the same folder as the site include the pngfix.js file attached here:

  • Movie has a stutter and it traces itself, WHY?

    I am having an issue when I view my movie on a computer it is fine but when I put it on a DVD it stutters and has a trace of itself after it.
    I am using a mp2 and a.pack/dolby file and it is at the standard apple bit rate.
    I don't get why this is like this, this is the last issue and I can finalize it and I need to get this done by Tuesday.
    I appreciate any help on this subject, I would think it is simple but what do I know.

    Are you using Compressor to make an m2v and ac3 file (was not sure)
    If you are just changing the prefs in DVD SP it will not change things.
    I thought you were doing it outside of DVD SP
    Are you dragging the encode files into the asset window? Not quite sure why a valid m2v is not importing
    Let's step back a second and if you can list everything you are doing in order, such as
    1.) Shot DV on a Sony
    2.) Imported into Final Cut
    3.) Exported as
    etc.
    and whether the export looks good in QT or are you seeing a stutter there? I thought that the disc was stalling or stuttering, as oppossed to the footage itself(?) What type of footage and where are you seeing stutters? Camera pans/zooms? When race cars zoom by (or some sort of action)? When people are just talking.
    All these little bits and pieces may help put together what may be going on

  • Screen has black edges and content seems magnified....

    This happened while working (using Word). The screen just snapped to a smaller image while the entire content of page got larger.
    I've tried turning zoom on and off, doing whatever is possible with DISPLAY preferences, and a restart, but don't seem to have any control on sizing the desktop to the actual laptop screen size.

    If you restart in Safe Mode do you regain normal screen control?

  • Stroke won't curve and has straight edges

    Any idea why this happens? I applied a 1pt stroke as you see in the screenshot and I gave it a default width profile. For some odd reason no matter what I do that stroke has sharp edges and isn't curved smoothly.

    So when will they have a fix for this?
    send a bug report, but nobody in this forum can tell you when it will be fixed.

  • I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same fam

    I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

  • So I have a file on my desktop and I cannot open it, move it to a folder, or delete it from my mac. I dont know what it has in it, and that makes me suspicious. What can I do to remove this unremovable file from my computer? Is it a virus?

    So I have a file on my desktop and I cannot open it, move it to a folder, or delete it from my mac. I dont know what it has in it, and that makes me suspicious. What can I do to remove this unremovable file from my computer? Is it a virus?

    First, I would recommend repairing the hard drive with Disk Utility.
    If that doesn't fix the problem, there's a very dangerous command you can execute in the Terminal.  This is very hazardous, because a simple typo can result in very drastic consequences.  I have seen people erase their entire hard drive by putting a space in the wrong place!  So, please follow the directions I'm going to give you very carefully!
    Open the Terminal, which is found in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.  In the Terminal, enter the following:
    sudo rm -f
    Make sure to put a space after the "-f"!  Then, drag the troublesome file from the Finder and drop it on the Terminal window.  That should insert the path to the file in the command.  Then go back to the Terminal and press return.  You will be asked for your password, and when you type it, nothing will be shown as a security measure.  Press return again after entering your password.  The file should be deleted.
