Fuzzy text after rendering to DVD!!

Hello,
I've successfully wrote my movie to DVD but the text (especially the white text on a black background) is fuzzy and unclear. Interesting enough, the black text on a white background is clearer, and even better text on a textured background.
Any suggestions on how to fix, or at least improve this.
I used Lucida bright text, and the average font size is about 30 to 33 pt.
Thanks in advance!!!!

Update,
Since posting my question I have scrolled through previous posts looking for answers. I have read the following suggestions:
1. Adjust RGB to 235 and opacity to %90.
I did a series of test clips with RGB adjustments and opacity. I also changed fonts (from Lucida bright) to Arial. I read that fonts with 2 pixels or less are unsuitable (I'm not sure what Lucida bright is so in my test clips, I changed it just in case). In my test I used 30, 35 and 40 point text.
Long story, short: I couldn't tell the difference between my old clips and the adjusted ones. Text still slightly fuzzy, especially on the scolling credits.
Perhaps I'm missing something (likely, as I'm very new to this) or this is as good as it gets.
Any further suggestions or advice? Thanks,
Greener

  • My FCP titles are fuzzy, even after rendering.

    Creating some simple titles in FCP. They are fuzzy and look unrendered. I've tried rendering them every way I can. They don't show as needing rendering.
    How can I get these titles to render and appear normal (i.e. not fuzzy)?
    These are simple text titles, not a crawl or anything like that.

    Try using boris title3d. You need to understand the difference between vector and bitmapped graphics. Boris title3d allows you to work with "vector" text which will create the text for each frame at high resolution as long as you use the control tab to reposition and resize.
    It's much more flexible than the text generator.

  • Blurry Text After Rendering

    While in the timeline pre-render my next is clear, then I render and it goes out of focus. I have my field dominance at none and have tried a variety of compressor settings. It looks best when the compressor setting is on "graphics" but the entire image becomes pixelated upon rendering. Any suggestions much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Can you share some information regarding--
    1. The version of Premiere Pro that you are using?
    2. The OS- Windows or Mac.
    3. The make and model of your graphic card and its VRAM.
    Thanks

  • Compressor 4 insert DVD dialog box does not come up after rendering

    Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong when after rendering a DVD project, the process looks like its finished rendering but the insert DVD dialog box never comes up. 
    Very frustrating, but probably something dumb...
    Thanks

    Everything looks good in the Batch Window.
    I'm guessing permissions or preferences, assuming it's not hardware.
    Run Compressor Repair to flush things out…make sure the Trash Preferences box is checked.
    Run Disk Utlity, select your boot drive and Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't do it, in Job Action, change output device to Hard Drive and se whether it will make a disk image.
    Good luck.

  • Titles made in Premiere become fuzzy after rendering

    Is there a setting or button to check in Premiere to prevent titles made in Premiere from loosing the clarity and shapeness they had to becoming fuzzy and out of focus after the video is rendered?

    I'm a novice learning Premiere. I assumed the softwear would make the export setting the same as the settings used to make the video sequence. I checked the best quality boxes and in both the rendering and exporting windows, but  the text in the titles made with Premiere played back fuzzy.  However, all the images I used stayed sharp in playback after rendering and exporting, even text that was already in images I imported in to Premiere stayed sharp in playback after rendering and exporting. What are the best sequence and export settings to use to produce sharp clear titles made in Premiere?

  • [SOLVED] Some text not rendering in Gnome after update

    After a recent update some text is not rendering in Gnome. For example, look at the url bar of chromium in this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/A2Qyw.png
    Here's a "screenshot" of some text not rendering in gnome-terminal:
    $ echo -e "I like pizza\nI like pizza\nI like pizza"
    ...blank line...
    ...blank line...
    ...blank line...
    ...blank line...

    I suspected libxi first but a downgrade did not resolve the problem. So you may very well be correct by connecting this to the xserver. I'm using nouveau by the way.

  • PE7 - stop video from running after rendering text titles

    Hi gang,
    When I add manual "sub-titles"  aka text titles to my videos, it works best when I render them as I'm going along with the ENTER key.    That's fine but the video then wants to KEEP start playing from the start and that's driving me bananas.  Can I turn this off?
    Sorry, if this has been mentioned before.
    cheerio
    Petey

    Hi Hunt,
    Indeed, I would never want the video to playback automatically after rendering.
    In PE7, it was exactly where you mentioned.
    BTW - rearranging menus is part of the neverending game, that drives us all constant upgraders completey bonkers!!!  Just like how AVI export dissappeared and reappeared into SHARE in PE 7.   What a nomad! hehe
    cheerio!

  • After rendering a movie, the DVD project screen doesn't display

    Q. After rendering a movie, my DVD project screen won't display?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Sorry to hear about your mishap.
    Do you have a backup using desktop manager? If so, your data is in there. Had you recently sync'd with outlook?
    Did water get into your BB? If so, place your BB in an open container of UNCOOKED white rice and set in a warm place for a few days. Rice should absorb the water.
    Let us know!

  • LiveType Credit Roll Text Blurry Shaking in DVD Studio Pro Completed SD

    I first created text scrolling directly from inside FCP. The texts appear shaking/blurry in the exported MOV. After trying different font family/size but still getting the same bad result, I did more research. I then created the credit roll in LiveType, imported that into FCP. This time, the exported finished MOV looks great on computer. I thought this is the right fix but after I got everything done in DVD Studio Pro and burned a SD to test on my 50" screen SONY, the credit roll part is again shaking and blurry!! This really drove me nuts!! Well, other texts that I created both in FCP and LiveType appear just fine!! I am trying to export the credit roll texts part as self-contained mov then import back to FCP but really suspect this will fix the problem.
    That part of rolling credit texts were shaking in DVD Pro simulation but I thought that's only becuase it was not the final product. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    p.s. I spent the past few hours googling and tried different methods but still had no luck...:(
    Thanks in advance!

    Ok...I just export a MOV with ONLY the credit roll encoded using QuickTime conversion, change the compression type to Uncompressed 8-Bit 4:2:2 which was supposed to retain the graphic/text quality better than normal setting. The completed credit roll still look shaking, however. It's white text on black, yeah I know not the best combo but there must be a way to get the text to not shake/blur...no?
    Please help, if anyone could.
    Many thanks...

  • Boris Title - Missing Text After Render

    All apologies if this is an ages old bug that everyone worked to fix years ago. I was a daily editor from FCP 1.0 until 2004 or so when a project caused me to walk away from cuts and edits and crashes all together. Like a masochist, I've jumped back in, but without the prior security that came with daily readings of all the proper forums. I've tried to do my due diligence (5 hours here, 2-pop, Cow, etc) but to no avail. So....
    FCP 4.5/OS X 10.4.9
    Previews of text when using Boris Title Crawl to create a crawl look fine, but after rendering, the beginning and end of each text string, no matter how long, are missing.
    So the above sentence would read:
    ext when using Boris Title Crawl to create a crawl look fine, but after rendering, the beginning and end of each text string a
    Scrolls are no problem. Only a problem with crawls.
    Again. Sorry if this has already been settled and I'm just overlooking the thread.
    Dual 1.42 GHz G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Welcome (back) to the forum.
    Have you tried...
    Deleting all renders in Render Manager, then re-rendering?
    using the crawl in a different sequence or project?
    trashing preferences?
    I'm unable to duplicate the behavior. Seems to work fine here, with that sentence.
    How are you previewing?
    Do you have improperly set 'Margins' in the 'page' tab of Boris...or any crops set in 'Motion' tab of FCP?
    Post back,
    K
    EDIT - BTW, FCP4.5 works best with OS 10.3.9/QT6.5.2

  • I have a few wedding projects(1-2 hours)I am trying to export at full hd quality,than burn in idvd.After rendering for 8hrs I receive error code that states "file is too big". Please help? compressing tips without losing quality?

    I have a few wedding projects(1-2 hours)I am trying to export at full hd quality,than burn in idvd. After rendering for 8hrs I receive error code that states "file is too big". Please help? compressing tips without losing quality? or any other exporting alternatives?

    Hey Z,
    Thank you for the tip on exporting by media browser (large) from imovie. But of course, if it's not one thing it's another. Now that I figured how to export a large file from imovie, I have an idvd issue. I followed the instructions for burning from idvd and changing the encoding to professional quality and the burn speed to x4, but I am receiving an error that states the following,
    Your project exceeds the maximum content duration. To burn your DVD, change the encoder setting in the Project Info window.
    Project:
    - total project duration: 79:04 minutes
    - total project capacity: 4.327 GB (max. available: 4.172 GB)
    Menus:
    - number of menus in project: 1 menus
    - total menu duration: 0:39 minutes
    - total menu capacity: 37.370 MB
    Movies:
    - total movies duration: 78:25 minutes
    - total movies capacity: 4.291 GB
    I have searched in the idvd forum for similar issues and I am stumped at this point. I have tried deleting the encoding assets and re launching idvd with the changed preferences, and still the same error. I know you mentioned something about free hard drive space available, and I have very little left. 4GB to be exact due to massive hours of non-edited footage. I am not sure if this is why, but I do not recall ever needing free space to burn memory onto a separate dvd. I would be more than happy if I am wrong, and it would be a quick fix. Otherwise, the technical nightmare continues. It's all a learning process and your expertise is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

  • Weird glitches after rendering

    Dear people,
    I did recently huge (for me) step from PRE 3.0 to PRE 8.0 (I hadn't know, there were 9 Version). Anyway, I had in my first video some weird artefacts after rendering my video, and I don't know, how to fix them. (With 3.0 I hadn't such problems, even if I used it already ca. 3 years for many similiar projects).
    You can see this glitch between 0:59-1:10 of my video in the upper right corner.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp40ZjZ_lQ8
    I tried it with various configurations, but it had always just various glitches. The youtube video was directly uploaded from PRE, and its quality is much more better than the glitch-full videos I exported as files. Do I do something wrong?
    To my PRE project: it contains a video and many animated text layers. In the PRE preview, before rendering, everything looks good, but the rendering disappoints me :-)
    Actually I wanted submit my video to some art video galleries, but I cannot since it's still a little bit buggy.
    I would highly appreciate any help!
    Thank you, people, in advance,
    Merzmensch

    Well, perhaps this was one of some differences to my previous videos: I usually use my Sony camcorder, but this time I used my digicam Ricoh K8. The video to this camera is fully incompatible with PRE (even if it's an AVI - I worked with another cameras before, but only with Ricoh K8 I discover incompatibility to just every video cut software), so I converted it through VirtualDub (using also MSU Cartonizer for special effects). As far as I cam recall, I converted it with Helix YUV codec, which I often use, because PRE 3.0 hadn't compatibility problems before.
    About settings of the project, which details do you need exactly? I actually used the default settings. Here I did the screenshots of every part of Project settings:
    http://s234.photobucket.com/albums/ee240/kosmopol/PRE%20settings%20Takahashi/
    (Sorry, it's German version, I hope they haven't shuffled the settings) :-)
    I have a feeling, that the problem is not with video footage, but with some PRE settings, since you can see in the glitch both levels: video and text together. Perhaps rendering failure?

  • Movie flickers after rendering

    Hey fellows,
    after rendering my graded clips flicker in all formats even as animation sequenz. It seem's that every half-frame is replaced by black frame. Where in the settings or output-settings could I combine the half-frames?
    Any idea?
    Thanks

    Have you saved the VOBs ripped from your DVD-VIDEO and saved them to your computer hard drive and then are bringing them into Premiere Elements Get Media/Files and Folders? Or, are you following the recommended procedure of placing the DVD-VIDEO DVD disc in the DVD burner drive tray and using Premiere Elements Get Media/"DVD (Camcorder or PC DVD Drive") and the Media Downloader to do the job?
    Either way, some people get excellent results. Others do not. For those do not, the remedy is converting the VOBs to DV AVI with the free download MPEG Streamclip
    http://www.squared5.com/
    and then bring the DV AVI version into Premiere Elements via its Get Media/Files and Folders.
    Have we determined that your Premiere Elements project preset (new project dialog) = NTSC DV Standard or Widescreen or the PAL counterpart? And, have we determined that you export will be as NTSC Standard or Widescreen or its PAL counterpart?
    The answer is 99.99999999% in that MPEG Streamclip software conversion.

  • Video "Hits" After Rendering

    After I render a piece of my timeline and look at it on our studio monitor, I'm getting a good amount of what I would call "hits" in the video, like hits you would see on an old tape that's past its prime. The timeline has a number of graphics layered on top of one another with text and moving jpegs, with a broadcast safe filter on everything.
    I've had weird things appear after rendering before, but they've always gone away after rerendering. This time they're pretty consistently in the same spots.
    Any ideas about settings I should look into or other work arounds?

    I have seen this on several occasions and there seem to be a few causes.
    possibilities:
    1) you are using the Broadcast safe filter, if the clipping on your images are extreme you get strange green and white artifacts after rendering. Try using the 3-way color corrector to bring levels down before applying the BS filter. Or if the artifacts are occurring on graphics, make adjustments in Photoshop (or whatever program you created the graphics in) and bring them back into FCP. A lot of people create graphics using the full range of RGB colors and luminance values. NTSC video does not have as large of a chroma and luma range as RGB.
    2) You are working in an uncompressed 10-bit sequence and applying filters that are not compatible (for lack of a better word) with Apple's 10-bit codec. (Or you are just getting random render problems in 10-bit). I have had many, many render issues in 10-bit that went away by switching to 8-bit. In most cases you can't really see much difference between 8 and 10 bit video anyway, so why go through the hassle or working with it. If you are doing a lot of green screen work, you may want to reevaluate this argument.
    I'm sure there are other possible causes for the problems you're experiencing, but these are the ones I've run into in the past.
    Graeme Nattress knows a lot about 10-bit issues in FCP, perhaps he can chime in with some suggestions/explanations.
