Blurless Source Video Becomes Blurry on Export.

I have a Premiere Pro Project using 29.97fps 60i AVC video (MTS). A few of my cuts have pans. The pans are razor sharp and detailed in both the source material and when playing back in the editor.
When I put them through Adobe Media Encoder (keeping the resolution and framerate the same as the source) the pans come out very blurry. I've tried, mpeg2, Quicktime Animation, and H264. Quicktime Animation seems to be blur free but I can't use that for youtube.
I've tried tweaking the bitrate but it does not seem to help. Is there anyway to get blur free H264?

60i AVC video (MTS).
I haven't yet been able to get a truly Interlaced H.264 export out of Premiere Pro. It seems to turn everything into Progressive, no matter what the settings are. This will mess with the appearance of motion. I wonder if that's what you're seeing, especially since it doesn't happen with the Animation export. (Though I would expect the MPEG2 export to be fine as well, so maybe this is not the issue.)

Why do my pictures become blurry after exporting from lightroom 5?

My pictures become somewhat blurry or not as sharp after I export them from lightroom 5. PLEASE HELP!!!

If you are looking at your exported pictures in preview.app than that is the culprit. It uses an extremely poor downscaling algorithm for displaying large images and will make every large image, no matter how sharp originally, display blurry. In preview you can hit command-0 (that's a zero) to make the image display 1:1 to see the actual detail. Make sure you have it's preferences in the images panel set to "Define 100% scale as 1 image pixel equals 1 screen pixel". I think in older Mac OS X versions, it was called something like ignore image dpi for display or so but I don't remember. You can also make sure to downscale (with correct output sharpening in the export panel) upon export from Lightroom. If the exported image is smaller than the display, Preview should display 1:1 by default upon opening.

Screen recording becomes blurry after exporting to iMovie

After creating a screen recording using Quicktime (and the video is perfectly clear), I am trying to export to iMovie to edit the video more easily and to add an audio track. However, once the video is turned into an iMovie project, it is blurry. Still blurry after stabilization too. Please help!

After creating a screen recording using Quicktime (and the video is perfectly clear), I am trying to export to iMovie to edit the video more easily and to add an audio track. However, once the video is turned into an iMovie project, it is blurry. Still blurry after stabilization too.
Is this a minimum information guessing game? Is this a "full" or "partial" screen recording? What are the actual dimensions of the screen capture? Was the capture made using QT or a third-party app? Did you perform a manual or automatic "export" or simply import the screen capture file to iMovie? In what type iMovie project are you editing the exported or imported screen captured file? Why are you stabilizing a screen recording? (I.e., the stabilization routine further rescales the content.)
If I were merely to make a guess, It would be that your work flow is rescaling the content making it blurry in iMovie as compared to the original capture file.

Why does my video become longer after exporting from Flash?

I am a relative novice in Flash and working in CS5. When I test my file, it plays perfectly with the audio I embedded in my timeline. I tried a couple different compressions when exporting into a Quicktime file, but my video which is only 32 seconds long at 30 fps becomes 52 seconds long! The animation slows considerably, and yet the audio I embeded plays perfectly. Any advice as to how I can get it to match the "test movie" option so I can get this bad boy on YouTube?
PLEASE and THANK YOU!

Without knowing the overall innards of the timeline it's hard to suggest a strategy other than those already mentioned. A clean test worked fine so the audio doesn't seem to be the issue.
Can you explain what is "buggy" about the output from the converters? Again, those should only be used if there's code involved to facilitate the animation. They essentially run the SWF and attempt to capture each frame as an image while stitching them together into a video. It's a fairly simple thing to do so it's hard to go wrong unless the hardware on the computer isn't keeping up with the SWF frame rate.
Flash CS6 is not compaible (to my knowledge) with 10.8 so that works to your advantage. Perhaps you can try downloading a trial of Flash CS6 and see if your export issue goes away. It won't solve why CS5 is giving you issues but it does put the power in your hands to export it for now. If it still fails to export that's a pretty convincing argument that a gremlin on the timeline is monkeying around.

Source Video is 1080 but Export Option Brings it to 720?

I am trying to export an edited movie, using the Share > Master File (default), but when I do this, it seems to change the movie file from 1920x1080 @ 23.98 fps to 1280x720 @ 59.94 fps. I've looked around the forums and on general internet searches and can't seem to find a solution. I've attached 2 screen shots to show the original file as it was imported and edited (1080 @ 23.98fps) and then how it is shown when I try to export (720 @ 59.94fps).
I've also gone through with the export think maybe it was a glitch and it did actually convert the video to 720 @ 59.94.
Somewhat of a newbie to Final Cur Pro X, so excuse my potential ignorance here, but how can I make sure to export as intended in 1080 @ 23.98? Thank you for any help you can provide.
Original video size as imported and while editing:
Export box dialog screen for the same video showing different:

Russ, that solution seems to have done the trick! I created a new project within that same event, made sure to select to set the resolution/frame rate to the 1st clip (which was already the default sleceted setting), and saw that it was 1080/23.98. Then went to share and saw it stayed at 1080/23.98 this time.
I assumed this would have automatically adjusted to the first clip (since that was what my settings were anyway - set to 1st clip), but evidently it did not. It seems weird that it would avoid my clips source resolution snd frame rate settings and keep a pre-determined, default value for this.
Either way, it looks like this has resolved my issue. In addition to directly importing a clip to start a project, I should start the project 1st and make sure the resolution/frame rate settings are what I want them to be, then import the files - thank you very much!

Video becomes squashed after export

I do not know what I am doig wrong but everytime I export my finished video it seems to get squeezed. It is a simple head shot of a guy talking. Green screened.
I do not change settings for exporting, I just make it use current settings. It looks fine in the viewer, but when I play back it is elongated.
Help!!!!

I am exporting to Quicktime Format, from Final Cut Pro HD.
I was wondering if it is the way I have captured the video? It is in Pro Cine mode, which I think makes it into 16:9, but I have used a 16:9 setting in my Final Cut Project.
What would be the best way to export?

Images in video become over saturated when exported

When I export the project as an AVI the images in the video become over saturated, ie the skin tone of people becomes bright orange in some cases. Is there a setting to prevent this happening?

Grand ideas or major duds...let us try the two different tests to see if we can pin point where the issue originates and its cause....
You may want to work from a copy of the problematic project....See File Menu/Save A Copy)
Open your existing project (the one that is yielding your DV AVI 4:3 @ 29.97 interlaced frames per second, and displaying with color issues).
But, do not export this project's Timeline using Publish+Share/Computer/AVI with Presets = DV NTSC Standard as you have been doing, assumed
with no export settings customization under the Advanced Button of the preset.
1. Go to Expert workspace File Menu/Project Archiver and its Archive and Copy options. Project Archive the project with the Copy option. This will result in a "Copied....Folder" saved to the computer hard at the location that you designated. Open the "Copied....Folder" to see copies of the source media that went into the project. These copies will represent all the source media that went into Project Assets whether they were used on the Timeline or not. Open each to determine if there is any color issues with any.
on to second test....
2. Go to Timeline Menu and select and click on Delete Rendered Files to do just that. Next, render the Timeline content by pressing the Enter key of the computer main keyboard. All video previews generated from Timeline rendering of a SD project are DV AVI files, be the files being previewed photos or videos.
Next, go to the Adobe Premiere Elements Preview Files Folder (by default in Windows' Document/Adobe/Premiere Elements/12.0) and open that folder. Play back the preview files there to determine if they have color flaws.
Please let us know the outcome.
Thanks.

I can't export to HD in Premiere Pro CC despite using HD source video and large format photos

I am trying to create a video slide show in PP CC using various sizes of photos and some HD source video footage and when I export the finished product the titles are murky, the photos are pixelated, and it looks HORRIBLE in general. I know in previous versions of PP you set the desired export quality when you created the video. I can't find a similar option in this version.

I was trying to export to a file. I tried multiple formats. Apparently, you no longer select the desired output when you create a project and Premiere based my outpu size on the first file I inserted. I am currently recreating the whole project, MASSIVE PAIN IN THE BUTT, but I inserted the HD video clips first and everthing seems to be going good now. I even did a test export to make sure. Lesson learned, start with the HD and work your way down.

When i pause a video in FCPX the current frame becomes clear but when i press play they become blurry?

I had this SAME EXACT problem for WEEKS! >_<
It was so frustrating. I tried everything I could. I was even using uncompressed video files (+60GB in size!) to try to fix the problem, but nope. Nothing. Except this...
Go to:
Preferences -> Playback -> Playback Quality and select "High Quality"
By default, FCPX uses the lower quality setting to save resources.
"...Playback Quality pop-up menu to choose whether to always use the highest-quality video for playback or downsized video for better playback performance"

What size export to iDVD if source video is DV

I have an iMovie project that has source video in DV format.
I am exporting in order to create an iDVD project, but when I export using QT Pro, the settings there tell me the current size is 640 x 480. This has me confused because I was under the impression that DV is 768 x 576
Can anyone help please, what are the best export settings for importing to iDVD?

When you create a new project you have the option to set the frame rate. If you set it to 25 then it's good to go.
Yes it's 25
If you're sharing using media browser or export movie you should be able to set it either 640x480 or 720x540. If you export to QuickTime Movie you can set the proper size, 720x576.
Yes I can do that, but what is confusing me is when I set current size in QT pro (export using Quicktime), it tells me the current size is 640 x 480. How can that be when all my clips are DV?
It depends why you're exporting and where you're trying to get to.
I'm exporting so I can create a DVD in iDVD. I can't use the direct share to iDVD because it crashes iDVD all the time.
I'm wondering if somehow the iMovie project really has converted the DV clips down from 768 x 576 to 640 x 480. Which would be a drag and if so then I suppose I should export at that size. If not then presumably I should set it to 720 x 576 as you say rather than 720 x 540.
I must admit I've never quite understood the square pixel thing.
Thanks

Help with exporting. Video looks horrible after export, but great when in premiere pro

Hey guys, looking for some advice on exporting.
When I finish a video, the color and everything looks great while in premiere pro, but after exporting it, the color ends up looking dull and the whole video looks blurry. I'm filming with a canon vixia hf200 at 60i. It imports as a AVCHD file, I deinterlace it, and then export at the Vimeo HD settings. What can be causing the video to look horrible after exporting? What settings should I be exporting under? Any help would be appreciated!

It looks like you're coming up against some of the colorspace handling issues that the Premiere pipeline has.
Since your source is 60i AVCHD it's HD and thus rec709 colorspace. If it gets encoded with the standard rec601 colorspace (SD sizes are this) then all the colors get crushed. Look for a "709" and "601" radio button in your export settings. If it's not there you're out of luck.
The "blurry" is probably a poor quality de-interlacer. If Vimeo permits interlaced vs progressive do that instead. it's always cleaner to stay in the same video format all the way through.
TECHNICAL ASIDE:
rec709 is a triangle of possible colors that can be expressed by mixing of ratios of 3 emitters (the R G B corners of the triangle). (they are the RGB phosphors of a CRT and now LCD pixel elements)
rec709 is a bigger triangle than rec601 so it's capable of more colors. but if you accidently map that triangle's corners to the coordinates of rec601 it gets crushed.
In photography the "sRGB" uses the rec709 triangle. A bigger triangle that that is "Adobe RGB". So if you work in Adobe RGB and export to sRGB without conversion the colors get crushed because sRGB in inside the triangle of "Adobe RGB".

Keynote Video Quality Deteriorates when exported to IMovie

How does one export a keynote presentation to IMovie without losing the video quality? It is extremely blurry after export. Or how does one "clean up" the quality, after it becomes blurry?

Is that the only way to transfer keynote animated videos to imovie? Use something else besides IMovie??? I thought the new apple program was supposed to be able to do these "basic" kinds of things really well, in a user friendly way.
How do I get Final Cut, and will I be able to use it as a neophyte?

MPEG source video looks fuzzy on DV sequence

Please excuse my inexperience, but I would like some advice. My school just purchased two JVC Everio GZ-HD7U cameras, and we are using CS4 for post-production. We shot some video, copied the video .TOD files to my computer, used JVC's software to convert to MPEG, and loaded the video into PP.
When I preview the video in the source monitor, it looks great. Really crisp, good color, etc. When I create a Widescreen DV 48kHz sequence from the preset and drop in this clip, the video looks very blurry in the Program window. However, when I make a sequence from the HDV 60i preset, the video looks just as phenomenal as in the source monitor.
Here's the properties on a typical source video:
Type: MPEG Movie
File Size: 302.7 MB
Image Size: 1440 x 1080
Pixel Depth: 32
Frame Rate: 29.97
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - compressed - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00;03;13;04
Average Data Rate: 1.6 MB / second
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.3333
I assumed that since the video was shot in 1440 x 1080 that it would look fine when resized to 720 x 480 (DV). What is the reason that it looks so blurry? I noticed that the "Fields" dropdown on the HDV 60i preset shows Upper Field First whereas the DV preset shows Lower Field First; is this a reason?
Thanks for the advice,
Matthew

Quality aside - process related question. I have an HDV sequence on the timeline in PP cs4 which I "Send to Encore" with Dynamic Link.(All updated to latest level) I open Encore and set the project to DVD with the default settings. The clip is imported into Encore and I edit the Transcode Settings > Export Settings Presets, I set Format to Mpeg2-DVD. Under Basic Video Settings I select Widescreen 16:9. On Source I select crop and crop 12 pixels off the top and bottom. The Output Crop Setting is set to scale to fit. I Select OK and name the preset Test. On Exit I set the Transcode Settings DVD Transcoding Quality Preset to the preset Test. The Video is transcoded but the crop settings are Not applied. Should the crop setting should be applied (Dynamic Link bug)? If I export thru AME with the same transcoder settings the crop is applied.
Thanks.
