Blurred Text With Lower Resolution

I have a question regarding lower than maximum resolution. When I change it in the displays control panel to anything other than 1280x854 the text and the screen in general isn't sharp and clear. Anyone else experience this?

This is due to the nature of LCDs. Unlike CRT monitors, LCDs have a fixed number of pixels, that is, there are physically 1280x854 LCD pixels in the screen. When you try to run at a lower resolution, the LCD has to dither the resolution down to where each physical pixel no longer forms a single pixel that you see on screen for that given resolution...if that makes sense.
The bottom line is, LCD look their best at their native resolutions. In your case, this is 1280x854. Anything less will look fuzzy and less sharp, so what you're seeing is completely normal.

  • Having Problems with Low Resolution on Thinkpad Twist

    I notice lately that images do not appear as sharp or as deeply colored as they once were.  Text looks fine but even looking at high-res images, it's like I'm looking at them with a CGA monitor - I don't see the same color depth and the image appears lower resolution than it actually is.  The same pictures look sharp on another computer/monitor.  Could this be a display setting?  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the display driver to no avail.
    I also notice that when I go from screen to screen, sometimes I get a "ghost" of the previous image.  This is not monitor burn-in because the ghosted image goes away when I reboot.

    We can't tell from what you've said whether this happens only in your browser. If so, which one and what version? And what happens in other browsers?

  • Duplicate Image object in PDF file with low resolution

    Hi all,
    On creating images in bitmap mode using illustrator into eps format and convert the eps file into pdf using acrobat distiller.
    On pdf file its showing two objects in the content panel with one object present in low resolution other one same as its original.
    It will not happen in direct pdf from illustrator
    Please anyone help on this.
    Note: It will not happen in grayscale mode.
    Regards,

    Hard to follow what you are experiencing, can you post  screenshots?
    You may want to experimnent with your .eps settings, especially preview & inlcude linked files since you have duplicate images.

  • Running director on with low resolution

    Hi,
    I´m trying to run some multimedia slides from a dvd with director, but unfortenly on a monitor with low screen resolution director doesn't adapat the slides to the size of the monitor so you can see only the top of them.
    Do you have a solution?

    Director WILL do bitmap resizing with a bit of help from Lingo.
    You can put on stage a placeholder "imageThatFits" image member and use copyPixels to squeeze each individual slide into it.
    Create a bitmap castmember called "imageThatFits",  paint a square in it, set the registration point to top left of the square, then place the member on top left of stage.
    Use an "on prepareFrame" script :
      sourceImgObj = member("<big image member name>").image  --  pointer to the original image that you want to resize
      sourceRect = sourceImgObj.rect  -- gets size of original
      destImgObj= member("imageThatFits").image  --  pointer to your full screen image member
      destRectOrQuad = _system.deskTopRectList -- set size to current screen resolution
      destImgObj.copyPixels(sourceImgObj, destRectOrQuad, sourceRect)  -- update your full screen member.
      member("imageThatFits").regPoint = point(0,0)  -- line it up with top left of screen
    If you already have the oversized images in the score you could move them offstage and calculate "sprite(<big image sprite>).member.image" to get sourceImgObj.
    Or you could use member().fileName to point to files on the DVD

  • Blurred text with camera movements

    Hi All
    I am sure that someone has solved this matter, but I couldn't find any post to it. I am animating my camera in which it moves fast towards a text and beyond it. Unfortunately, when I come close to the text, it blurs & pixelate. My first thought was to adjust the focal length of the camera, but there is no settings for that, is there? Then I played with the NEAR settings but they don't really address the issue, they merely give me an option to cheat a bit. Then I saw I can 'rasterize' the text layer in motion, again I am not aware of the settings being in motion, and NOW I am about to try Photoshop rasterized test and import the file into motion. So please stop me from further experimentation and share a clue or two o how to avoid the text burring when I move the camera towards it. Thanks in advance.

    Cheers Mark. Thanks.
    In fact, I thought when you export the sequence, it would set it automatically to high, but it doesn't. Now, I know ... and for everyone out there, in case you didn't know, you can leave the render quality even low while you are designing the sequence, but don't forget to set it to high before you export.

  • Photoshop Text Blurry/Low Resolution when Printed

    In photoshop I created a document that is 8.5x11, the size of standard printing paper, with a letter in a handwritten font. When I print my letter the print quality is not so great. I have resolution for the image set to 100. There is a little bit of a blur around the edges of the font and overall it is not very crisp.
    If I take that same font when printed through microsoft word, it is very crisp, sharp and high quality.
    What might be the disconnect between the two? Why is the same document much more crisp and clean when printed through word than through photoshop?
    Thanks

    Here is a great video explaining the issue:
    I would recommend a resolution at 300dpi, but that is often dependant on the image you are printing. I often set it at 300ppi for a photo quality.
    Here is the link if the video doesn't display: http://psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/tools-tips/pixels-image-size-resolution-photoshop/
    I hope that helps, please post back with any questions

  • Blurred text with mac mini   24" LCD

    Hi,
    both my mac mini's (2010 and 2011) have blurred test when connecting via HDMI or the HMDI --> DVI cable to my Acer S240HL 24" 1080p monitor.
    I've set the display to 1080p in the mac settings.
    I've read a lot about the HDMI implementation is poor on the mac mini and the best option is to use VGA!    VGA!?    Really?
    I've also tried the command line
    defaults -currentHost write -globalDomain AppleFontSmoothing -int 2
    to no avail.
    I'm running 10.8.3.
    Any other ideas?  Perhaps I'm just too used to the retina display on my iPad/iPhone!
    Thanks in advance.

    Personally I think that your best connection would be either (the HDMI to DVI Adapter or a MiniDisplay Port to DVI adapter) and a good DVI cable, because that's what works best with my 2010 Mac Mini using both LG and Samsung monitors.
    For blurry text and/or faded colors, go to: Apple > System Preferences > Accessiblity > Display and check to make sure that your Enhance Contrast: slider is set to Normal.

  • Game is running with low resolution and poor performance

    Hi, I have purchased dv4 entertainment laptop 2 years back.

Also, I am unable to install the Adventures game in my machine, getting DirectX error. I am not sure this issue is because of the in-adequate configration of Graphics card Please guid me to reslove this issue.

    Compressed using compressor, burned DVD with I-DVD.
    Compressed to what codec using Compressor?
    iDVD uses its own internal encoder -it has probably gone through two compression cycles as a result, which will hammer the quality.
    You should feed iDVD with a file from FCP using this method instead:
    File > Export > QuickTime Movie > Current Settings. You can choose Self Contained or Reference.
    Self Contained is preferable as it does not depend on the original footage and associated render files being present. It gives you a stand alone master from which to make the deliverables.

  • Trouble with low resolution

    I am new to Lightroom 3.6. After I export my photos, I usually upload them to Picasa or Snapfish. I have noticed that the file sizes of my photos are much smaller than I would have thought after being exported. For example, I tried to print an 8 x 10 recently and it was 555 x 800 pixels, 151 KB. Snapfish recommended that I didn't print it, but I did anyway to see how it would look and the picture looked very pixelated. I had read online about jpeg files being compressed in Lightroom and causing them to become much smaller file sizes and my question is, "How do I avoid this?"
    WIth the 8 x 10 that I recently printed, I had exported it at 2400 X 3000 pixels, with resolution 300 pixels per inch. Format was JPEG, Quality set at 76, color space sRGB. Are these the wrong settings?
    I had read that I should not "resize to fit" my file to JPEG and instead, keep it at "orignal" when exporting. I did this, but it did not make any difference.
    What can I do when exporting so that I am able to print photos larger than 5 x7 without lessening the resolution and file size?

    All of these sizing issues are completely under your control.
    If you exported a photo at 555X800, there are only two ways to get that ... either the original was 555x800, or you told LR to give you 555x800 on export. Can you check to see what the size of the original was?
    WIth the 8 x 10 that I recently printed, I had exported it at 2400 X 3000 pixels, with resolution 300 pixels per inch. Format was JPEG, Quality set at 76, color space sRGB. Are these the wrong settings?
    This can't be the photo that you said was 555x800, unless you made a mistake somewhere.
    So, in order for us to see what happened, we need to know the number of pixels of the (cropped) image that is in Lightroom, and we need to see a screen capture of your Export Dialog box showing the Image Sizing section.
    I had read online about jpeg files being compressed in Lightroom and causing them to become much smaller file sizes and my question is, "How do I avoid this?"
    Any program, not just LR, compresses JPGs. There is no such thing as an uncompressed JPG. You cannot avoid this when you export a JPG. However, you can export a JPG such that the image will appear to be high quality when printed or viewed at a certain size.
    More to the point, you are now confusing "file sizes" with pixel dimensions. These are not the same. In this discussion, the relevant information is pixel dimensions. The file size is meaningless. Compressing a JPG does not change the pixel dimensions.

  • HD movies bought in iTunes with low resolution

    Ahoy there evryone!
    I bought recentlly one concert movie in HD.
    I noticed that when I play it in my iMac the resolution is not so high...
    Is there any issue with HD (high definition) in iTunes?
    Are these movies not supposed to have the same definition of a DVD film?

  • Poor image quality display with low resolution on websites

    I have just upgraded to the new Firefox browser 32.0.3
    Since upgrading I have noticed a severe degradation in image viewing on websites. Images on websites are poor quality and pixelated, as if I were surfing on a slow connection.
    We have fibre optic broadband with DL speeds generally of around 70mbps so that can't be the problem! I have also tested on other browsers and the images appear fine and clear.
    I am currently on an iMac 27" with OS 10.9.5
    Help would be appreciated!
    Thanks

    Hello wildfirepro, any luck if you disable graphics hardware acceleration ?
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    #Open Firefox ''Preferences'' window as follows:
    #* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Preferences'' on your Mac.
    #In the Firefox Preferences window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
    #In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    #Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Thanks.

  • Do I have to finalize project in HD, it was taken with low resolution camera?

    I have converted some old videos from tape for a movie project and the resolution isn't very good.  Seems like a waste to save them in HD, is there an option not to finalize a project in 1080p?
    Thanks

    When you finalize a movie, you are Sharing it to Media Browser in all available sizes. If your footage is Standard Def, it should not Share in 1080P, but it might if your project includes some 1080P clips as well.
    You don't have to Finalize at all. You can use the Share menu to Share to the Media Browser in the sizes you want. You can also Share to iTunes, Export a move (which is the same as sharing to Media Browser or iTunes except that it lets you specify a folder to save your movie to. There are several other options as well in the Share menu.

  • IMovie: How to  use events with low resolution?

    When I have a less than HD (either 720p or 1080p) movie I like to reduce the size of the screen that it is showing in. Since I like to show my movies on a 1080p 55 inch lcd screen, I really don't enjoy having these 640 x 480 or smaller movies blown into a blurry mess.
    What I have done is make a piece of blue or other color footage and enlarge it to whatever length I need by dragging pieces from the event into the project story board. Then I open up a new event and bring in the less than stellar resolution movie.
    I drag this movie into the Project Story Board, and click on PIP on the resulting menu. I put a border around the PIP movie and enlarge it to a size that still has it sharp. Then I trim the movie to what fits.
    IS THERE ANOTHER WAY TO DO THIS?

    I think that's an excellent method. It works for you and is a straightforward workflow. You may already be doing this (and I haven't tested it), but you could drag coloured backgrounds to your project from the Maps, Backgrounds and Animatics panel (centre toolbar far right). Then do your PIPs as you described.
    I can't think of a better solution using iMovie. Probably it can be done differently in Final Cut Pro X (available from the Mac App Store).
