Difference in quality between digital preview and exported QT movie

I am editing a project shot in HD. I have the easy setup configured correctly according to the footage: AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60 and the rate is 29.97 fps. When I view the project in playback using FCE4's "Digital Cinema Desktop Preview-Main" is looks great (crisp, clear, etc.). When I export it to a quicktime movie (note: not using conversion), the quality is extremely compromised and some of the fast moving objects are grainy, choppy and blurry and look really bad. Can I do something differently so that the exported movie looks as good as the Digital Cinema Desktop Preview?
Also, I have incorporated several freeze frames in my project. These look a little blurry and aren't as crisp as I like. Is this because the camera wasn't shooting at a fast enough speed? At the same time, related to what I described above, the freeze frame looks MUCH better in playback in the Digital Cinema Desktop Preview than in the exported QT movie.
Thanks in advance for your help.

How are you viewing the movie ? If you are using Quicktime to view it, then this is also what I have experienced. In my case once I convert the footage to some final product everything is fine. I think that our computers (and or QT) are not able to keep up with the demand put on it to play back the HD files.
Your next step would depend on what your final product is going to be, a DVD, upload to the internet or whatever.

  • Is there any difference in quality between mp4 and m4v?

    Is there any difference in quality between mp4 and m4v? I am figuring out how best to save old VCR files. Is the 264 category the best?

    So, what would that software be? Anything that I mentioned, e.g., iMovie? Any Video Converter?
    I'm a Mac user so I want files that play "natively" in QT X, QT 7, QL, iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad, and/or TV players. This means I want the H.264/AAC compressed data in MOV, MP4, or M4V file containers. I can use QT 7 Pro, MPEG Streamclip, and /or QT X to move MPEG-4/AAC compressed data to MOV file containers, MPEG Streamclip to movie M4V and MOV MPEG-4/AAC data to MP4 file containers, and Subler to move MP4 or MOV MPEG-4 AVC/AAC/AC3/Chapter data to M4V file containers. This is strictly a simple "copy" operation and no recompression of data is involved. (I.e., the quality is not changed.)
    iMovie is a video editor and it forces an export conversion of your project once completed which can degrade quality. Have never used the Any Video Converter so I don't know if it has an audio and/or video "passthrough" feature for data already in a compatible compression formats. If it doesn't then any conversion it makes has the potential to degrade video content.
    As to AVI, this is a legacy file container abandoned by Microsoft a dozen years ago in favor of their modernized WMV compression format/file type products. Compared to MKV, AVI is an outmoded/out-of-date container which I don't recommend you use unless you are a glutton for punishment. However, if you must use it, then you might try the AvidMux app. It can "copy" compatible content to a number of file container types—including AVI and MKV. Just don't blame me if its use creates more problems than it solves on current Mac systems.

  • Difference between Simple maintanence and Export mode and Organisation plan

    Hi all,
    Can any one please explain the difference between Simple maintanence and Export mode and organisational plan in SAP easy access.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Naga

    Expert Mode Infotype Maintenance: This interfaces allows you to edit individually selected objects in OM (Org Units, Positions, Jobs) via infotypes. 
    Expert Mode: Simple Maintenance Interface (PPOM_OLD) is used to quickly create a new Organizational Plan. As a user, you can pretty much maintain large volumes of data very easily ( i.e create several objects simultaneously), without having to go through the more "Performance Intensive" Org and Staffing interface.
    In accessing the Simple Maintenance interface to create your org structure, the initial screen requires you to specify which evaluation path you want to create your org structure.
    Organizational Plan: This is what provides you with a complete picture of an enterprise's environment. It comprises elements (objects like Org Units, Positions, Jobs etc) which are used as building blocks for creating an Organizational structure.
    Need more information? Let me know.

  • Is it possible to make a video preview and export it from edge animate?

    is it possible to make a video preview and export it from edge animate?

    Hi Johan,
    If you are looking to export video through Edge Animate.
    Well, there is no direct way to do it but you could use a screen recorder to make an mp4. Then you can import the mp4 in PS and if you have the plugin for gif then you just save aa a gif.

    Hi LarryMeikle
    The biggest difference between Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC is that Photoshop CC is subscription-based--you have to subscribe to Adobe's Creative Cloud service to use it.  Also, Photoshop CC includes new features that were not in Photoshop CS6.
    Let us know if that helps.
    Thanks!

  • Lightroom CC and GPU previews and exports

    Hi,
    Does Lightroom CC uses the GPU for creating the previews and exporting images, or just for interactive adjustments in Develop?
    thanks,
    Misho

    GPU is only used in the Develop module and not in any of the other modules. There is a new Auto setting for previews in LR6 preferences which is the default if using LR6 for the first time. If upgrading it's recommended that you change to the auto setting and standard previews will be optimized for your monitor.

  • SAP SD--Difference of upgrade between SAP4.7 and ECC6.0

    Hi friends,
    Somebody can pls tell --Difference of upgrade between SAP4.7 and ECC6.0 in terms of sap SD module or any links for this.
    Rahul

    Hi Rahul,
    Your question is a little general...Maybe you could go to sap help portal to search for the documentation for upgrading to 600.
    As I know, we have some new functionality in release 600. For example, shipping point determination with storage location, automaticly outbound delivery creation after saving stock transfer order...
    Also the screen is different for most list transactions like VA05.

  • I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's

    I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's. When I export a qt from Premiere with audio it will not play on a pc only a mac. After extensive research I have narrowed down the problem to this: if you use the inspector in quicktime it looks like this
    DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
    16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
    I have to run it thru AE to make it look like this....then it plays
    DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
    16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
    SOOOO the problem is the Little/Big Endian. I googled that and it looks like a file/bit structure....anyone know how/why to change it in Premiere? Because everytime I make a movie in Prem I have to drag the sequence into AE and render it there so the sounds works.....
    thanks

    Two questions:
    1. What CODEC are you choosing when exporting on the Mac?
    2. Do you have any Blackmagic hardware/software installed?
    Cheers

  • Is there a difference in quality between importing into 08 and Final Cut Pr

    When importing video from a DV camera, is there a difference in the quality of the raw video recorded onto the Hard Drive between iMovie 08, iMovie 6 and Final Cut Pro?
    Will I get better quality using Final Cut?
    Thanks
    Kevin

    sorry for 'overwhelming' you with info
    yes, all apps copy the dv-encoded material from miniDV devices 'natively' = lossless import..
    but only iM08 then adds some 'loss' .. nobody knows exactly, what & how.. but you are not able to EXport lossless from within iM08 ..
    example: import dv, export dv = adds blurr and 'magnifies' somehow the same file .. ( ! )
    using iMHD≤6, FCE/P allows you, to export lossless = highest quality possible (except the parts of your project, which need renderning, e.g. titles, transitions...)
    example: import dv, export dv = same quality ...
    so, if _pic quality_ is your major concern, avoid iM08 ..
    if you want fast results and export quality doesn't matter: iM08
    if you want a Library off all imports ever and full integration into AppleTV/, YT.. = iM08
    if you want other codecs than dv and simple use = iM08
    if you want all imports for any future project and high dv quality = FCE/P
    if you want easy to use and high dv quality = iMHD≤6 ..
    if you want other codecs than dv and Hollywood quality = FCP

  • Extreme poor quality in full screen preview and exported movie

    I have spend evenings and evenings to create the content of a project.
    After dealing with error -108 and extreme poor quality in full screen preview and in exported movies (extreme stuttering) I decided to install my iMac new again.
    The error -108 disappeared, but the extreme stuttering still remained in full screen preview and in exported movies.
    If I make the preview screen in the iMovie browser as big as possible there is nothing to see of any stuttering.
    Now I am getting pretty annoyed and have no clue what to do anymore (how to solve this problem) .....
    Anyone any suggestion ?
    The orginal video was recorded with a Panasonic HD camcorder.
    I do have a mid 2011 iMac with 16GB ram and 256GB SSD and 1TB HD with a complete clean installation
    of OS X Lion and iLife. This configuration should be enough to create a proper movie :-(

    why is it this option disabled? do the generate monitor sized previews increase a lot the cache a lot!
    Potentially, yes. The standard Preview is 1024 pixels, longest size. Some people (like Omke) have displays 2560 pixels longest side, potentially increasing file size by over 500%.

  • Difference between "Archive/restore" and "Export/import"

    What's the difference between the utilities "Archive/restore" and "Export/import"?
    Which utility must I use for putting my maps from a development environment to a production environment?
    For the moment I am using version 9.0.3.
    I will migrate to 9.2 when the version for AIX is available.

    Marc,
    You should use OWB Metadata Export/Import utilities (not to be confused with Database Export/Import utilities).
    The Archive and Restore utilities will be desupported in the next release of OWB.
    The exact differences are documented in "OWB 9.2 User Guide", page 15-12, "Differences Between Archive and Export" and page 15-23, "Differences Between Restore and Import". The same sections are available in "OWB 9.0.3 User Guide", pages 11-45 and 11-46 respectively.

    Hi,
    Since I already know where and what the duplicate amounts are in the PSA, Can I do the following:
    1. Delete the Amounts (and change them to 0) in the PSA
    2. Delete that particular load from the Cube
    3. Now that the duplicate amounts dont exist in the PSA, Re-Load it back to the Cube using DTP
    Would this work? Is this even possible?
    Thanks
